Conservative party deputy chairman, Lee Anderson, expressed his frustration and anger regarding the possibility that the number of small boat arrivals in the UK may surpass 100,000. He criticized the notion that those arriving by small boats are genuine asylum seekers, despite data from the Home Office suggesting otherwise. Anderson voiced his belief that only the Conservative party could resolve the situation. The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) confirmed their involvement in a recent incident in the English Channel, where casualties were rescued from the water. The British government is considering tightening rules on investment in China following similar measures introduced by the US. In response to a reader’s query, it was highlighted that the number of small boat arrivals is minimal compared to overall immigration numbers, and they make up less than half of asylum claims. The exact proportion of refugees in the total immigration cohort can vary each year. The 7.6 million figure in the headline NHS waiting list represents the number of referral to treatment (RTT) pathways instead of individual patients, potentially causing an overestimation. Lee Anderson stated that if the government’s plan to tackle small boat crossings fails, he would support drastic measures and withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
