‘Just deport them!’: Labour's £40k migrant madness

Shabana Mahmood has announced a host of new anti-immigration measures in Labour’s most radical policy intervention since it came to power.

The plans include offering asylum-seeking families up to £40,000 to leave Britain, as well as suspending student visas for four countries over migrants using the system as a backdoor route to claim asylum.

Camilla and Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg assess the plans, after Mahmood tells Camilla at a press conference that the measures are "not the end of the action that we will take in this area".

Elsewhere, Jacob condemns Sir Keir Starmer’s “flip-flopping” on Iran, which led to him being “bullied by his own Cabinet” into his initial decision to not allow US forces to use British bases.
