Shabana Mahmood

Labour — Birmingham Ladywood

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 November 2025

Debate

Asylum Policy

Contribution

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. Fixing this broken system is a moral mission for me, because I do not believe that we can look the other way and pretend that it is just talking points from our political enemies that are driving division in our country. The broken system is what is driving division in our country. I am determined to put that right to make sure that we do not divide our country and that we retain public consent for having an asylum system.
