More than 100 children aged 12 or under were referred to the British government’s Forced Marriage Unit between 2021 and 2025, new Home Office figures show.
The figures include 27 children aged five or under.
Dame Jasvinder Sanghera, a campaigner who escaped a forced marriage when she was 14, described the number of very young children as “deeply disturbing.”
She warned that some children could disappear from school because they had been taken away for a forced marriage.
“I know that when schools open in September, there will be missing children,” she said. She also warned that some children could return to school engaged or even married.
Dame Jasvinder said some children could be “promised to somebody from birth,” with the marriage taking place many years later.
She also said the real number of cases was probably higher because many situations never reach the police, social services, or other authorities.
A referral to the Forced Marriage Unit does not necessarily mean that a forced marriage has taken place. It means that information was given about an actual, possible, or suspected case.
The figures show that nine children aged 12 or under were referred in 2022 in cases where there was no overseas element. This means the suspected or actual forced marriage took place entirely in the UK.
Forcing someone to marry is a criminal offence across the UK. In England and Wales, the legal age of marriage was raised from 16 to 18 in 2023. In Scotland, the legal age remains 16.
The Home Office said forced marriage was “not a problem specific to one country, religion, or culture” and that there was no typical victim or offender.
However, separate figures highlighted by the Centre for Migration Control think tank show that, in 2025, 41% of Forced Marriage Unit cases were linked to Pakistan, while 9% were linked to Bangladesh, and 7% to Afghanistan.
The think tank said this was linked to mass migration and multiculturalism.

This sudden rise in forced marriages tracks almost perfectly with the Boriswave, which saw the Tories import four million new people into the UK. The Conservatives will never be forgiven for this complete and utter betrayal.
According to Dr Rakib Ehsan, a social policy analyst, the new figures have “exposed the dark underbelly of modern, multicultural Britain.”

What did they expect?
Cultural enrichment.
If they have found (and admit to) 100, that means the real number is about 10,000
Apparently, they don’t care. Don’t dare criticize this in the UK or you could end up in jail.
This is a global problem. For some reason, the global elites, the Soros and Schwab are pushing open borders, communism and islamization. It doesn’t make sense to me, because the monsters they are creating will eventually turn on them.
100? That’s perhaps the number reported to the govt.
I’ll bet the real number is in the thousands...
From multicultural to monocultural misogyny. Meditating MoFos will do that. It’s in the Muslim Manifesto.
The more I think about it, the more I think Islam is the Anti-Christ of Revelation. The globalists are The Beast. Or maybe the other way round.
Muslim apologists will argue all day long in debates that there’s no good way to know what age Muhammed’s wife was when he married and/or consummated with her.
Among Muslim men, however... there’s a lot more action than debate.
[Oh, and in my checking: there’s a lot more evidence that their pedo-prophet never existed in the first place]
That is their religious practice. So is honor killing. So us acid in the face. So is beheading. So, what’s the problemo?
I agree that the Antichrist seems likely to by Islamic.

This is far more than "a camel with its nose under the tent".
It is actually a government that is lifting the sides of the tent solely to allow entry for the entire camel.
You don’t have to explain to a Muslim that rape is wrong, they know.
You have to explain to them that rape of a non-Muslim is wrong.
But even if you do it won’t matter because the Koran tells them it is their right to rape non-Muslims.
If the people of the West do not put a stop to the importation of Muslims soon their will be no people of the West. Demographics is destiny.
Import followers of a pedo child raping cult and get child raping by the cult members.
Not only children being forced into marriage, but the UK has large numbers of marriage between first cousins among its Muslim population. Welcome to the 6th century.
And then one day, for no reason at all…..
