Shabana Mahmood orders urgent Border Security review after two migrant boats land undetected
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has commissioned an urgent review by Border Security Command after two migrant boats arrived on Kent beaches undetected. Five people were detained on Monday near Folkestone and 21 on Tuesday at Samphire Hoe, marking the first unescorted landings in a year. These uncontrolled arrivals are rare, with only one other recorded since the Home Office began collecting data.
