My radical migration plan will end Labour’s madness and make Britain truly sovereign

In October 2024, Rhiannon Whyte was murdered by an illegal immigrant, Deng Majek, from Sudan.On the evening of October 20, 2024, Rhiannon had finished her shift and walked to a nearby station to get the train home.Majek attacked Rhiannon, stabbing her 23 times tragically killing her.I’ve met Rhiannon’s mum, Siobhan. TRENDING Stories Videos Your Say Siobhan has said: “It’s not fair that an illegal immigrant could come into the county and do this to my daughter.“Why doesn’t the government stand up and do something?”It’s a good question.Under this Labour Government, over 74,000 people have crossed the Channel.Sir Keir has presided over more small boat crossings than any other Prime Minister.Cases like Rhiannon’s are why public trust in the government on immigration is so low.People vote for illegal immigration to be ended.They vote for foreign criminals to be deported.But it does not happen.That is why the Conservative Party has a plan to restore democratic control over the immigration system.We must leave the ECHR and repeal the Human Rights Act so we can deport all illegal immigrants within a week of arrival.We must also reform asylum.Illegal immigrants like the Sudanese man who tried to behead Stephen Ogilvy in Belfast should not be able to claim asylum at all.They should be rapidly deported.Under our new system, any asylum claims from someone who has arrived legally will need to be supported by real, hard evidence showing a genuine risk of personal persecution.Persecution means threat to life, imprisonment or torture, not a less generous welfare system in their home country.We can implement this change by amending domestic legislation.We need to end the use of modern slavery claims as a basis for people to stay in the UK.This will mean leaving the ECAT Treaty and amending the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and other domestic legislation.We will completely abolish the Immigration Tribunal and abolish Immigration Legal Aid.Immigration decisions should be made by the Home Office with a quick internal appeal process.We have seen reports recently of legal advisers helping migrants pose as gay to get their asylum claim accepted.We will put an end to this farce.Finally, Judicial Review of immigration decisions and policy should be severely curtailed.We will only allow Judicial Review of immigration decisions or policy on the grounds that the government is acting outside its statutory powers.Only radical action will return control over the immigration system to Parliament and take control away from the courts.As Home Secretary, I would use this freedom to deport all illegal immigrants within a week of arrival and all foreign criminals.The public, rightly, expects our borders to be controlled. And this plan will do it. Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
