Chris Philp: “We have not seen enough action being taken and so the Conservatives would return to the home secretary the power to set…”

It is a disgraceful slur to suggest that those wanting to end illegal small boat immigration are prepared to see migrants drown.

We need to leave the European Convention on Human Rights so that all illegal immigrants can be deported within a week of arrival - then the crossings would soon stop.

Labour is moving illegal immigrants out of hotels and into flats in your building.

But I would expect the vast majority of cases of illegal immigrants, to entail return to their country of origin.
