'Vote Reform for a migrant amnesty'

VOTING for Nigel Farage's Reform UK will push the nation towards Labour's "illegal immigration amnesty", a Home Office minister warned yesterday.

Mr Farage, Reform's honorary president, has labelled Sir Keir Starmer's small boats plan a "joke" and said it is "far worse" than Rishi Sunak's bid to end the Channel crisis.

And he vowed to continue trying to win as many Tory votes as possible despite fears the UK will be "less secure" under a Labour Government.

But Illegal Migration Migration Minister Michael Tomlinson told the Daily Express: "A vote for Reform is a vote for Labour's illegal immigration amnesty. Labour have confirmed those who enter the UK illegally will be entitled to claim asylum.

"Not only would they scrap our Rwanda scheme, they would also grant amnesty to hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who have no right to be here, making the UK a magnet for every illegal migrant in Europe. In every way, Labour would make our country less secure.
