Sunday’s episode of Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg wasn’t short on drama, especially when Reform UK’s Chairman, Zia Yusuf, was put under the spotlight to explain some of his party’s more hardline promises. Fresh from their surprising local election success, Reform has found itself facing some tough questions, particularly about its bold claims on stopping migrants from being housed in hotels.
Laura Kuenssberg, not one to let things slide, cut straight to the point. She asked Zia how Reform planned to block migrants from staying in hotels, especially given the government’s existing contracts with providers that run until 2029. “So how were you going to do that?” she challenged, “because again, we’ve checked this, the break clauses for these contracts are not till 2029, so aren’t you promising something you can’t deliver?”, according to the Express.
