British Home Secretary Suella Braverman said in Parliament that there is an “invasion on our southern coast” and that she was serious about “ending the scourge of illegal migration.”

On Monday, Braverman told MPs at the House of Commons that around 40,000 people arrived on the south coast of England in 2022, more than double the number of arrivals via the English Channel in 2021.
