The Home Office has slipped out revised figures on the number of migrants being housed in hotels.
There were actually 35,686 asylum seekers being accommodated in hotels as of the end of march this year, 25% higher than previously disclosed.

HOME SECRETARY LAUNCHES NEW BORDER SECURITY COMMAND
Home Secretary YVETTE COOPER has today set out the first steps to establishing a new UK Border Security Command (BSC).
This will strengthen Britain’s border security and smash the criminal smuggling gangs, making millions out of small boat crossings.
Rapid recruitment for an exceptional leader used to working in complex and challenging environments, for example, at senior levels of policing, intelligence or the military, will kick off tomorrow (Monday 8 July), with the new recruit expected to take up their post in the coming weeks.
Reporting directly to the Home Secretary, the Border Security Commander will provide strategic direction to work across agencies, drawing together the work of the National Crime Agency (NCA), intelligence agencies, police, Immigration Enforcement and Border Force, to better protect our borders and go after the smuggling gangs facilitating small boat crossings.
Following the Home Secretary’s instruction, a core team in the Home Office is establishing the remit, governance, and strategic direction of the new command. Early legislation is being prepared to introduce new counter terror style powers and stronger measures to tackle organised immigration crime.
She has also commissioned a bespoke investigation from the department and the NCA into the latest routes, methods, and tactics used by people smuggling gangs across Europe to inform a major law enforcement drive over the coming months
The BSC will draw on substantial additional resources, with work to bring in more investigators, experts, and analysts to tackle organised immigration crime starting on Monday. A significant number of these will be based across Europe, working with Europol and European police forces to disrupt the activity of the criminal smuggling gangs and ensure those profiting from people smuggling are brought to justice.
In a call to the Director General of the NCA, Graeme Biggar, the Home Secretary stressed the need to break the business model of the criminal smuggling gangs, going after their ability to communicate, move people across Europe and their profit.
The Home Secretary will have further calls this week with European interior ministers and with the Director General of Europol to discuss strengthening security cooperation.
Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, said:
Criminal smuggling gangs are making millions out of small boat crossings, undermining our border security and putting lives at risk. We can’t carry on like this. We need to tackle the root of the problem, going after these dangerous criminals and bringing them to justice.
The Border Security Command will be a major step change in UK enforcement efforts to tackle organised immigration crime, drawing on substantial resource to work across Europe and beyond to disrupt trafficking networks and to coordinate with prosecutors in Europe to deliver justice.
Work is underway to bring in a Border Security Commander to lead this work – and we will begin recruitment on additional capacity in the National Crime Agency immediately.

It's a smart strategy.
Buying a fall guy to absolve herself when it fails!
Will this be the first Labour jobs for the boys or straight up nepotism?

Has the Small Boats Operational Command been disbanded? Has General Capps been made redundant? Will the SBOC staff be fired and rehired? What is the difference between the two organisations’ functions?
Or is this just a gimmick?

Labour goes to war on nail bars in fight against illegal immigration with 1,000 staff redirected from ditched Rwanda scheme to target beauty salons and car washes

1. Nowhere to lock them up.
2. Lack of trained enforcement officers and Border Force filled with low grade pen pushers who would not be trainable putting it bluntly.
3. Still subject to ECHR so most will claim asylum or 'right to family life'.
4. Most embassies will refuse to isssue travel document unless have proof of nationality and identity such as a errrr travel document.
5. They haven't got a boody clue!

1,426 ILLEGALS have crossed the channel in the last week
Around 15% of the total crossings this year have come in the first 16 days of a Labour controlled government
228 migrants were brought into Dover yesterday in 4 dinghies and a stolen yacht
2,143 migrants in 37 dinghies have now crossed since keir took control at the beginning of the month
15,717 migrants in 309 boats have so far crossed the channel this year, up 10% on last years figures, and on course to break the 2022 record of 45,774

Of course.
Lammy shell shocked and wandering around muttering 'The horror, the horror' after the security briefing from 70 Whitehall, the intern from the BofE deciding that if she does nothing she can't be blamed for doing the wrong thing and poor old Angie wondering why everyone is being so nice though she's sure they keep calling her Kamala behind her back .......................
The honeymon period has hardly started and the usual suspects are already complaining of non-consummation.

Euphemism Corner - Please note that the Home Office have been told to redefine 'illegal' immigration as 'iregular' - a long-held demand by pro-migration activists such as Care-4-Calais.

Well, it looks like she was right. The news of the last couple of days has been scary, honestly.

Scary, but hardly suprising.
