The Government has been warned that its plans to clampdown on migrants crossing the Channel to get to the UK are unworkable 🚨 Follow the latest updates here:
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has vowed to end “immoral” illegal migration, with new legislation set to place a duty on the Home Secretary to remove “as soon as reasonably practicable” anyone who arrives on a small boat. Migrants who arrive in the UK illegally would be sent either to Rwanda or a “safe third country”.
But Labour’s Wes Streeting has said the Government’s upcoming small boats legislation is “just the latest in a long line of unworkable gimmicks”.
