Only six arrested?
"A total of 17,480 migrants have arrived in the UK after crossing the Channel by boat so far this year, including 5,011 since Andy Burnham became prime minister.
The total so far for 2026 is down 46% on the same point last year."
Not that the drop in numbers will stop the likes of Farage talking up the "invasion".
