Stephen Flynn asked Rishi Sunak if his government is inspired by Enoch Powell or Nigel Farage during Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday.The Government introduced legislation on Tuesday which would mean that asylum seekers arriving illegally in the UK would be detained and face a lifetime ban on returning after they were removed.
Former Brexit Party and UKIP leader Nigel Farage has regularly spoken out against immigration to the UK. “But whilst it may shock, it shouldn’t necessarily surprise because this is the Tory government that in recent months has spoken of invasions. Sunak said: "What a load of nonsense. The figure of 100 million it doesn't come from the government. It comes from the United Nations.
"This has always been the way of this country. And once we get a grip of that system, that's who we can extend our support to and that's why it's the right legislation."
