Speaking in the House of Lords on 26 June 2025

Debate

Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill

Contribution

I very much hope that the Opposition will be able to find it in their hearts to support this suggestion, because wherever you stand on co-operation with the EU, the fact is that we are talking about trying to nab the criminals, so it makes absolute sense. Of course, the TCA was negotiated by a Conservative Government, so I hope that trying to get good co-operation with Europol can be supported from all sides. As I said, I hope that the Minister will give a positive reaction to suggestions of making the border commander regularly meet the boss of Europol.
