Dr Caroline Johnson

Conservative — Sleaford and North Hykeham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 July 2025

Debate

Asylum Hotels: Migrant Criminal Activity

Contribution

Violent disorder is always wrong, but we need to recognise that it is a symptom of people’s outrage at the current situation, and of their fear of crime—particularly sexual crime—in their community. The Minister should focus not on the tone of questions in the House and what has happened in the past, but on what she will do to solve the problem. In that respect, I agree with what the Father of the House said about requiring a credible deterrent, so does the Minister regret cancelling the Rwanda scheme?
