The British Home Office is actively looking for new hotels to accommodate illegal migrants amid an increase in the number of crossings across the English Channel. About 135 people cross the border on small boats every day. According to the latest data, about 30,000 migrants have already been accommodated in 250 hotels across the country, which costs the government 4.2 million pounds a day. Labour has been criticised for not having a clear migration strategy, despite recent promises by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper to reduce the use of hotels to save money.
