The UK front pages react to a new Home Office report that has linked the UK’s hot weather this year to a dramatic rise in the number of small boat crossings when compared to the same period last year. A record 11,074 people arrived in small boats before May this year, a rise of almost 50% compared with the same period last year.

The story leads two tabloid front pages this morning – both conservative-leaning.

The left-leaning press takes a more neutral tone compared to the sensationalist approach from the right.

Wednesday’s UK newspaper front pages offer a variety of headlines with no one story dominating the papers. A handful touch on the migrant channel crossings, in particular Labour’s theory that crossings have risen due to the good weather. But there is little unity across the papers and instead standalone reports ranging from war and conflict to the latest showbiz news.
