Ukraine Response Marred By Asylum Abuse
The government has been criticised for being slow to react to the Ukrainian refugee crisis. But, in our view, while the response may have been cautious, it has also been appropriately generous. Accusing the UK of taking in fewer refugees than countries bordering Ukraine (as the former Danish PM did on BBC Question Time last […]
Help Those Fleeing War. Stop The Scammers
With the ongoing crisis in Ukraine the government has come under fire for its slow reaction on allowing in refugees from the region. Meanwhile scammers pay people smugglers to cross the Channel into Britain with impunity. Please see our latest video which addresses the muddled priorities that have led to this situation in Britain. We published a paper this week highlighting newly-released official statistics […]
Don’t Throw Away The Immigration Rule Book
Once again, Britain’s place as a global leader in humanitarianism is needed, and here at Migration Watch UK we totally support the government’s efforts to offer safety and refuge to those displaced by the monstrous invasion of Ukraine by Vladimir Putin.

Nearly every boat migrant arrives in the UK without a passport As covered by the national press, we published an analysis – based on a freedom of information release – with the bombshell finding that 98% of boat migrants have no passport when they arrive in the UK.

Asylum Fraud Endangers You
Government failed to act in wake of Liverpool bomber’s asylum lies Watching our politicians make a royal shambles out of our border control is like watching one of those old Whitehall farces with people coming in and out all over the stage.

Democracy Dies In Darkness
Democracy is impossible without transparency. Please sign and share this petition calling on the government to drop its plan to hide daily arrival totals of people coming here illegally in boats.

Stop The Asylum Cover Up
Say NO to the government’s Channel crossings cover-up We are only weeks into the new year and already nearly 1000 people have come to Britain illegally in boats. This is a continuing and growing scandal that is simply not being addressed. There has of course been the usual hype about the military tackling the problem or using countries like Ghana (where all knowledge of discussions with the UK government were denied) or Rwanda for offshore processing. And […]
Mass Immigration’s Radical Impact
Promise after promise on immigration betrayed So Britain’s population is on course to shoot past 70 million and a growing share of the surge is expected to be driven by mass immigration.
