Small Boats, Big Problem: National Emergency?

#MigrantCrisis #SmallBoats #UKBorder #Dover #ImmigrationCrisis #UKPolitics

Over 9,000 migrants have arrived by small boats on UK shores this year — with over 700 in a single day, and a 40% rise compared to last year. The cost? An eye-watering £6 million per day to house them in hotels.

Meanwhile, the U.S. has slashed illegal border crossings by 95% under Trump-era policies.

So why is the UK failing to control its borders? Is this a humanitarian challenge, a policy disaster — or a national emergency?

In this video, we break down the facts, the numbers, and the politics.
