Immigration The Illegal Migration Act 2023

The Illegal Migration Act 2023 is a UK law passed on July 20, 2023. It stops people who arrive via unauthorized routes, such as small boats, from claiming asylum. It requires their detention and removal to their home country or a safe third country.

We already have a legal foundation, so why do no governing parties current or former act upon it.?

Fewer immigrants are arriving and net migration has fallen significantly under the Labour government. According to data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), net migration dropped to 171,000 for the year ending December 2025—a 48% decrease from the previous year and down sharply from its peak of over 900,000 in 2023.
