No of Irregular Migration to the UK via Small Boats Post the FIFO Scheme.
Since the inception of the new first in first out scheme in agreement with the French government, the number of arrivals via small boats to the UK has been c16k. The scheme doesn't appeared to have acted as much of a deterrent.

Shows a graph of the scheme working.. ‘the scheme hasn’t been working’
Crossing the channel in winter in a small boat is a terrifying prospect
Numbers fell off from September last year as well
Will need to wait till the spring/summer to see if there is any measurable impact
I’ve noticed the numbers drop when there’s stormy weather, which is what we’ve mostly had since August (which sits at the end of a settled March-August)
