Chris Philp

Conservative — Croydon South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 May 2025

Debate

Immigration

Contribution

Yes, of course I would. A number of people have tragically lost their lives crossing the channel, and that is precisely why we need to stop these crossings entirely, as Australia did about 10 years ago. If we can stop the crossings entirely, lives will not be put needlessly at risk and we can avoid tragedy.
