Over 350 individuals had reached UK waters by the morning, with hundreds more attempting the journey.
A lull in poor weather allowed small boats to navigate calmer seas, with Border Force vessels intercepting some migrants near Dover.
Foggy conditions posed additional risks, as small boats shared waters with large container ships in one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes. Authorities on both sides of the Channel remain on high alert as thousands of migrants reportedly wait along the northern French coast, ready to seize the opportunity presented by the favourable conditions.
This surge in crossings highlights the ongoing crisis, with over 35,000 illegals having made the journey this year—a 20% increase from 2023.
Despite pledges from the Starmer government to crack down on people-smuggling networks, operations continue unabated, with smugglers offering “Christmas special” deals to encourage crossings.
The issue has drawn sharp political criticism, with opposition parties highlighting the need for improved border security and international cooperation. With the weather expected to remain favourable in the coming days, authorities anticipate further crossings.

35,000 illegal immigrants don't make it into a country in a year unless the government is complicit. And we know they are complicit, because they put many of them up in "refugee" hotel accommodation at huge taxpayer expense. Then you look at places like Birmingham and London, which are now minority-White. Then we look at the US, where millions or non-White illegal immigrants are being let into the country, necessarily with government complicity.
Moreover, the mass illegal immigration is one thing, but the mass legal immigration has exactly the same effect on demographics, with America going from about 90% White for the first 200 plus years of its history, to around 60% since the 1960s, through really diminishing rapidly since the late 1990s.
So what is going on? The facts are, White people in historically White nations are being deliberately replaced. By contrast, non-White nations are not having "diversity" foisted on them. And "foisted" is the right word, because polls consistently show that people Europe and the Anglosphere oppose mass immigration.
We can argue the underlying motivations, but we cannot argue with the mathematical facts of the matter, and that is replacement migration is a policy across all of the West.
And New Zealand is not immune. We can look at Europe and North America to get an idea of our future, both of which are further down the diversity hole. People need to seriously consider what the nation will be like when White New Zealanders are eventually the minority, and worse, when they are a minority habitually blamed for the historic plight of what will then be the majority.
Yes - but till expected to pay the lion's share of costs.
