Sammy Wilson

Democratic Unionist Party — East Antrim

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 February 2025

Debate

Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill

Contribution

The Home Secretary has outlined many of the measures she is taking to try to deal with the gangs, but the fact is that people come here because there are advantages in coming here. What is she doing to ensure that those advantages are removed, so that there is no incentive for people to come to the United Kingdom? Secondly, what role will Border Force have between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic, since the Irish Republic is also a route for illegal immigrants to come to the United Kingdom?
