UK Sees First Arrivals From 'One In, One Out' Migrant Deal

The UK-France pilot returns migrants arriving illegally by small boats to France while accepting vetted asylum seekers, aiming to deter crossings amid over 32,000 arrivals in 2025, officials said.

  • A family of three has become the first asylum seekers to arrive in the UK under the new 'one in, one out' deal with France.
  • Under this deal, a small number of migrants who crossed the Channel are expected to be sent back to France while the UK accepts an equal number from France.
  • The Home Office stated that this move sends a 'clear message' to people-smuggling gangs that illegal entry into the UK will not be tolerated.
  • The scheme aims to reduce perilous Channel crossings by demonstrating that illegal entrants will be immediately sent back to France.
