Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated that the government's plan to address illegal Channel crossings is showing success, even as approximately 900 migrants arrived in small boats within his initial week as premier. Burnham made these remarks in a poll initiated by The Morning Poll, which asks the public to weigh in on the effectiveness of his strategy.
The poll's results are slated to be published in the upcoming Morning Mail newsletter. This initiative comes as the government grapples with ongoing challenges related to irregular migration across the English Channel.
