Immigration minister Robert Jenrick has rejected Suella Braverman’s comments comparing small boat crossings to an “invasion” saying he “would never demonise people coming to this country in pursuit of a better life”.
The Home Secretary is facing a backlash after the comments made in the Commons on Monday night. As she fought to save her job, she made the controversial remarks just days after Rishi Sunak pledged “compassion” would be at the heart of his administration.
