Prime Minister Andy Burnham has reportedly allowed in at least 10,000 illegal boat migrants into Britain since coming to power, as arrivals surged over the weekend.
According to analysis from GB News, some 10,139 migrants have successfully reached UK shores by illegally crossing the English Channel from the beaches of France since Andy Burnham took power in a Westminster palace coup in July.
The broadcaster calculated that this means Burnham is averaging 97.5 illegal boat migrant arrivals per day, which is higher than his Tory predecessors Theresa May, Boris Johnson, and Rishi Sunak.
GB News calculated that Burnham’s daily average is only slightly better than former Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, whose average stood at 103.6 after having allowed at least 77,183 illegal boat migrants into the country before he was ousted from office by Burnham.
The Labour government has claimed success in confronting the crisis by noting that illegal Channel arrivals are down over the previous year, 22,608 compared to 36,954 at this point last year.
However, since coming to power in 2024, the left-wing party has allowed in 87,259 illegal boat migrants, compared to 127,896 during the preceding six years of Conservative governance.

That's more than a battalion's worth of military-age men arriving on our beaches.
We already saw one wielding a knife.
We already know terrorists and murderers have come this way.
Burnham cannot tell you who they…
The entrepreneur turned Reform campaigner noted that the number of arrivals of mostly young male illegals in just the past four days represented over a “battalion’s worth of military-age men arriving on our beaches” and warned that the government has no idea if terrorists or other violent actors are among their ranks.
A Home Office spokesman recently said: “We have made progress tackling the small boats. Crossings are down significantly, and we have just recorded the lowest number of summer arrivals since 2020.
"Joint efforts with international partners have prevented over 50,000 crossing attempts and seized 1,100 boats and engines since the election. But we must go further. That’s why we are boosting the number of officers on the ground in France and removing the pull factors drawing people here through illegal and dangerous routes."
