Migrants sit on a dinghy as it prepares to sail into the English Channel in Gravelines, France, on July 10, 2025. On July 8, France’s President Emmanuel Macron told Parliament that the UK and France have a duty to tackle illegal migration “with humanity, solidarity and firmness.” With the number of those arriving illegally in the UK via small boats surpassing 20,000 in the first half of 2025, migration has risen to the top of the agenda during Macron’s three-day state visit.
