Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has come under fire from one of his own backbenchers over whether he will deliver on a proposal to use a military base in his constituency to house migrants.
Conservative former minister Sir Edward Leigh has strongly opposed Government plans to use RAF Scampton in his own constituency of Gainsborough to house migrants, and has voiced his discontent over what he has suggested is a failure by the Government to advance proposals to use Catterick Garrison in the Prime Minister’s constituency.
