Reform's Zia Yusuf today announced that the party would introduce a new law which would see bosses jailed for 5 years if they employ illegal migrants.
The only snag is that law already exists ...

Would you invest £215,000 in a company run by the man you said “broke Britain”?
@Nigel_Farage has.
He’s backing a crypto scheme led by the architect of Liz Truss’s disastrous budget.
Don’t be fooled by the @reformparty_uk rebrand - they're the Tories 2.0
“This is Brexit Britain. We voted to take back control of our borders, not to accept a deal given to us by a French President” says Nigel Farage
Imagine his shock when he finds out Brexit is a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings
Imagine Mr Jenrick’s shock when he finds out a study by Durham University has found the primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings is the former Conservative governments oven ready Brexit deal
According to the report it was the then conservative Government’s decision to leave the EU without a returns agreement in place which has led to the skyrocketing number of dangerous small boat crossings

My interview with the Immigration Minister where I try to get my head around Rwanda:
“We’ve seen lots of people arriving on small boats - over 13,000 this year alone. Every one of these people, as far as I can tell, joins the queue to go to Rwanda. So how many people are in the queue now to be deported to Rwanda?”
Immigration minister Tom Pursglove: “Rwanda is an uncapped scheme. The last set of figures that I saw, there were 85,000 asylum claims that are still not decided”
“So that means 85,000 people are effectively in the queue to go to Rwanda?”
Pursglove: “A considerable number of those people will be eligible for relocation to Rwanda. Now I would argue you need a deterrent.”
“I just want to get my head around this. Tens of thousands of people - none of them can have their asylum claim processed until they get to Rwanda. So they're just sitting in taxpayer funded accommodation until that happens?The Public Accounts Committee reckons Rwanda will cost half a billion pounds - the average cost of a new hospital, by the way. But that's not to send 85,000 people to Rwanda. That's to send a maximum of what, 5700 people? I just can't get my head around this. It feels ridiculous.”

Surreal. Ed Conway's analysis shows that even after Rishi Sunak's proposed tax cuts, taxes will reach a new 80 year high!
Every time someone says the Conservatives are cutting taxes in this manifesto, show them this analysis
Pensions Secretary Mel Stride is out this morning spouting the Prime Minister’s now rubbished & debunked claim Labour has a £38.5 billion unfunded spending commitment.
By now even Larry the cat knows the Prime Minister’s claim is boll****🐈
