This is 18% more than the previous year and higher than at the peak of the European Migration crisis in year ending June 2016 (36,546).

    I notice your quote was unattributed, Reggie. This is from the government's own web site:-

    There were 31,115 asylum applications (relating to 37,235 people) in the UK in the year ending June 2021, 4% fewer than the previous year. There were 2,756 applications from Unaccompanied asylum seeking children (UASC), 15% fewer than the previous year.
