THE Tories have unveiled a “Deportation Bill” packed with sweeping curbs on both legal and illegal immigration. Policies include disapplying human rights laws from immigration court cases.

Kemi Badenoch would also enforce a legally binding annual cap on overseas arrivals to wrestle net migration, down from the mammoth 700,000 last year.

THUGS who climb on Winston Churchill's statue will face up to three months in jail under new laws. Despite not being officially classified as a war memorial, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper will give special status to the Westminster monument of our greatest ever PM.

Always tensions in government between a Home Office that wants to slash migration, and a Treasury that sees migration as key to driving growth. You can imagine Yvette Cooper's argument on the BBC today is pretty similar to the case she has been putting to Rachel Reeves. https://t.co/pKmlAer6BO
Grooming gang victim Steph - who has waived her anonymity to @bbclaurak for the first time - tears into Lucy Powell's "dog whistle" comments.
EXCL: Jet skis could be used to stop small boats under plans being discussed in the Home Office. Tactic would see French cops use jet skis to deploy netting that would jam propellers and bring boats to a safe stop in the shallows. Details 👇 https://t.co/Br0r2FfUSQ
