More Britons should be trained as HGV drivers, fruit pickers and butchers so the UK does not have to rely on foreign workers to fill jobs, Suella Braverman will tell a Conservative conference today.
The home secretary will use a speech in London to say the UK "mustn't forget how to do things for ourselves", claiming there is no need to depend on "low-skilled foreign labour" to fill vacancies in sectors such as haulage, butchering or farming.
Ms Braverman will speak at the National Conservativism Conference with the gathering of senior ministers, Tory MPs, right-wing commentators and others coming only days after Rishi Sunak's party lost nearly 1,000 councillors at the local elections.
Her speech at the three-day event comes amid renewed unrest in the party, with Brexiteers angered by the decision to scale back post-Brexit plans to scrap EU laws.
