Daily Post

January 02, 2026

A TOTAL of 41,472 migrants arrived in the UK in 2025 after crossing the English Channel - the second highest annual figure on record.

The Home Office confirmed yesterday that no migrants made the journey on New Year's Eve, continuing a run of no crossings over the festive period.

It means the overall number of arrivals last year finished 9% below the all-time high of 45,774 in 2022.

The total for 2025 was 13% higher than the figure for 2024, when 36,816 migrants made the journey, and 41% higher than 2023's total of 29,437.

For much of 2025, the number of arrivals was running at the highest level since data on Channel crossings was first published in 2018.
