UK to Detain Small-Boat Migrants Within Days to Return to France - BLOOMBERG

AUGUST 04, 2025

The UK government said it would begin detaining small-boat migrants “within days” to be sent back to France, as the two countries prepared to formalize a “one in, one out” treaty on Tuesday.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer reached an agreement with France’s premier Emmanuel Macron last month to send an unspecified number of migrants crossing the English Channel on illegal small boats back to France, in return for accepting the same number of migrants from France who haven’t already tried to make the crossing.
