Prime Minister Andy Burnham is touting progress on stopping small boat crossings, despite 881 migrants arriving in just one week—nearly all via 13 boats, including a record 165 on a single vessel. While critics question his early silence on migration, Burnham credits Home Secretary policies for a 45% drop in Channel crossings this year compared to last year, and a 16% decline from 2024. He’s also pushing economic wins—lower energy bills, capped bus fares, and a new Manchester office—before pivoting to tackling youth unemployment and social care in week two, all while framing the current situation as a positive turning point.
