RISHI Sunak’s promise to stop the boats was tonight rocked by a new daily record for arrivals this year.
A total of 872 illegal migrants turned up in 15 dinghies on Saturday.
It is the highest daily total since the PM made his vow in January.
The warm weekend weather saw Channel crossings surpass the previous 756 high on August 10. It means 20,973 people have made the journey this year.
Tory MPs yesterday said the influx showed why radical solutions were needed.
