Conservative — Hamble Valley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2024

Debate

Small Boat Crossings

Contribution

Given the Home Secretary’s claim that she would smash the gangs, with £540 million to upgrade the Manston centre, asylum hotels reopening rapidly and 14,000 small boat crossings since she took office, is that the plan that she had for her new border commander? Might it be fair to say that it is not going very well?
