No 10 has reported that 24,103 persons including foreign nationals living illegally in the United Kingdom have been deported to their various countries of origin in the first quarter of 2025.
Illegal immigration has been a big problem for the United Kingdom in the last few years as several nationals continued to fleecing the system of Billions of Pounds and starching infrastructures in the country.
‘More than 24,000 people have no legal right to be in the UK, including 3,594 foreign national offenders. This is the highest returns rate for eight years and the four biggest return flights ever. Our Plan for Change is securing our borders’ says Number 10 in a tweet this morning.
Home Office statistics indicate that 36,816 people were detected crossing the Channel in small boats in the full year of 2024. Of these, more than 23,000 arrived after July 5, 2024, under Labour’s tenure, based on official figures reported up to December 31, 2024.
Additional data shows 2,056 more crossings occurred between January 1 and February 26, 2025, bringing the total to approximately 25,056 small boat arrivals since Labour took office, assuming a consistent pace into late March.
British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer while responding to No 10’s starts says:
‘If you don’t have the right to be in this country, then you shouldn’t be here. It’s that simple’.
It is however not now the precise number per country for each deportation.
