Lately I've seen numerous stories about asylum seekers on the BBC News website. Without exception, every article has been headed with an image similar to the one below, regardless of whether small boats are even mentioned at all. That's real BBC bias for you.

Disabled people tried to warn you.
We said that the rising eugenicist sentiment that accelerated during the “back to normal” phase of Covid would eventually hurt everyone
The new healthcare plan for America appears to be:
Don’t get sick

If you can’t pay, die
