London: British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Sunday announced a crackdown on illegal migration with a new proposed law to tackle the issue of migrants entering Britain illegally and dangerously in small boats across the English Channel. The British Indian leader has made cracking down on this illegal route between Britain’s maritime border with neighboring France one of his top priorities for this year. Along with his Indian-origin Home Secretary Suella Braverman, the Sunak-led government is now planning to introduce legislation in Parliament to address the issue.
“Make no mistake, if you come here illegally you will not be able to stay here,” Sunak told the Sunday Express newspaper.
“I’ve made the issue of illegal immigration one of my top five priorities, vowing to stop the boats once and for all. Illegal immigration isn’t fair to British taxpayers, it’s not fair to those who are legal come here formally and that’s not right.” He said that the criminal gangs should be allowed to continue with their unethical business. I am determined to fulfill my promise to stop the boats.”

The group has now called for new legislation to ‘put the brakes’ on any misuse of human rights laws, which allow illegal migrants to avoid deportation from the UK.

She adds: “It should be that if you come here illegally you will be detained and swiftly removed. Our laws will be simple in their intent and practice – the only safe and legal route to the UK Will happen.”
“So far, [Opposition] Labor has opposed every effort to stop illegal immigration. They are not serious about tackling an issue that is becoming increasingly serious and allows criminal gangs to exploit the vulnerable. The Prime Minister and I will do whatever we can. You can judge us by our actions.”
