Sir Alec Shelbrooke

Conservative — Wetherby and Easingwold

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 September 2025

Debate

Borders and Asylum

Contribution

Reform announced in the summer that it would house all asylum seekers on former RAF bases. In my constituency, RAF Linton-on-Ouse was ruled out, on the grounds that its location in a small village made that inappropriate. Will the Home Secretary confirm that she has no plans to reverse the decision to rule out such inappropriate RAF bases?
