Zia Yusuf

Shadow Home Secretary, Reform UK 🇬🇧

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

What a phenomenal #RallyforReform event at the NEC! Thank you to all of you 5000 patriots who showed up.

Here’s my speech - a love letter to Great Britain.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Trade courses that Brits are forking over thousands of pounds for are being given out for free to illegal migrants.

Ordinarily, Brits who want to increase their skillset by taking on some technical education will pay several thousand pounds to get their hands on Level 2 and 3 diplomas.

Level 2 and 3 courses in plumbing and electrical installation, for instance, typically cost around £5,000 in total.

But some can get it for free, through the taxpayer-funded Adult Skills Fund.

INCLUDING so-called 'asylum seekers'.

Asylum seekers who have been waiting on their initial decision or appeal for longer than 6 months can get their hands on funded Level 2 and some Level 3 qualifications.

Let's get this straight:

When more than ONE MILLION British young people are out of work, the government is paying to train up illegal migrants to compete against them.

How on earth is that fair?

A Reform government will abolish this scheme, alongside every other benefit being dished out to illegal migrants, as we get to work deporting EVERY last one of them.

🚨 FOIs reveal that the Tories, while running Essex County Council, spent thousands of taxpayers money on sex education workshops for illegal migrants in RAF Wethersfield.

They even bought them contraceptives.

Meanwhile, illegal migrants put up in RAF Wethersfield were linked to:

170 offences.

97 of them violence and sex crimes.

A Yemeni offender sexually assaulted a medical worker.

The Tories bought them contraceptives.

This utter insanity stops under Reform.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Labour are letting child rapists avoid tougher sentences because of the prison overcrowding crisis.

When the Casey Review on the rape gangs came out last year, it recommended mandatory rape charges for adults who have sex with children.

Labour promised us they’d implement it.

But almost 6 months after passing Parliament the change still hasn’t been implemented.

Why?

MoJ ‘impact assessments’ claim introduction would have to be ‘carefully staged’ due to a shortage of prison cells. 350 extra spaces is apparently asking for too much.

So let’s get this straight:

Labour have let 70,000 criminals out early and Burnham is releasing thousands more.

Ordinary people have been killed as a result. Others raped.

And prisons are still at breaking point?

I will do what must be done.

Enact the fastest prison-building programme in British history.

Deport all 10,000 foreign criminals in British jails.

We will make criminals FEAR THE LAW.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Incredible to see failed Tory ministers import vast quantities of hostile actors, boast about it, then warn of the threat they pose!

Shameless.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

You were forced to pay for a free house for a convicted criminal illegal migrant.

Only for him to use it as a launchpad to commit sex offences against 2 young girls.

Mohammed Abbas broke into Britain on a dinghy in March this year.

Within 3 months, he was behind bars, arrested for common assault, sexual assault of a female, assault of a constable on duty and assault by beating.

AFTER all of this had happened, Labour still gave him the keys to a £250,000 two-bedroom house in Cardiff.

What did he do with his gift?

2 days after he moved in, he broke into a nearby family’s home, where two children, one under 13 and the other under 16, woke up to find him exposing himself right in front of them.

He was only stopped when the parents heard the girls screaming.

Labour spent hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money on a monster who should never have been in this country in the first place.

This is the insanity the Tories and Labour created.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Reform will put the Navy in the Channel to secure our border and deport every illegal migrant already here.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

London’s police commissioner has just exposed the total failure of Labour’s Early Release Scheme.

In London, police have been arresting 2-3 early-release offenders every single week in the months since Burnham took power.

Arrest warrants have almost doubled, from 800 a month at the start of 2026 to nearly 1,600.

It includes depraved killers like Robert Sabat, who stabbed and suffocated a woman to death just 11 days after being released early.

And this is London alone.

If it’s 2-3 in London every week, it’s almost certain that one of Labour’s newly-released offenders is arrested somewhere in Britain every single day.

Just how many British people have been raped or killed as a result?

Burnham chose to keep this policy.

He chose not to deport the 10,000+ foreign criminals in British jails.

He chose to dedicate police resources to protests against illegal migration instead.

He chose violent criminals over the safety of the British people.

I will deport all foreign nationals in our jails and keep violent criminals where they belong: IN JAIL.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Shabana Mahmood just said the quiet part out loud.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

A woman was murdered because Labour chose to let a violent man out early.

It took Robert Sabat 11 days to reoffend, stabbing and suffocating his own half-sister after he was released through Labour’s Early Release Scheme.

She suffered eight stab wounds, alongside broken bones.

Her face was 'virtually unrecognisable' at the mortuary.

When paramedics arrived on the scene, Sabat charged at them with a knife.

He told police he was going on a "murder spree."

This was totally preventable.

Sabat had 4 prior convictions, including for stabbing someone in the throat with a knife back in 2014.

How could anyone think it was the right call to unleash him onto our streets?

The Tories and Labour created this monstrous system.

Reform will deport all foreigners in our jails and launch the fastest expansion of the prison estate in our history.

We will keep violent thugs where they belong: behind bars.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Our Royal Marines are being forced to stand and watch as invaders land right by their home in Portsmouth.

This changes under Reform…

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

149 illegal migrants landed in Gosport last Sunday.

Hotels for these 149 alone will cost the taxpayer £7.9 MILLION a year.

That wipes out the income tax paid by roughly 1,000 working Brits. A small town.

That's before the NHS. Before the welfare bill. How much did the police escort cost? How much to crack down on local concerns?

200 officers from 7 different forces were taken off their crime-fighting duties, including 999 response teams, to be redirected to the Gosport protests.

No one voted for this.

Reform will deploy the Royal Navy to stop the boats, and deport every illegal migrant the Tories and Labour allowed in.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Labour’s Home Secretary says nearly all women who try to reach the UK in boats from northern France have been raped on their journey.

So @ShabanaMahmood what does that make the men on those boats?

And given you are forcing them into British communities, what does it make you?

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Many former and serving Royal Marines have told me how devastated they are to be forced to watch as invaders land by their home of Portsmouth.

I make them this promise:

A Reform government will immediately deploy His Majesty’s Royal Marines with the following orders:

DO NOT LET A SINGLE INVADER REACH OUR SHORES.

If people smugglers resist, our boys will be authorised to use lethal force.

We will take our country back. 🇬🇧

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Over the past 3 years, there have been 170 reported offences linked to RAF Wethersfield illegal migrant camp in Essex.

Violence and sex offences accounted for 50%.

A Yemeni man sexually assaulted a medical worker.

Within a month, another injured two security guards.

Gang feuds, drug offences and arson are common.

Fires are started as distractions to facilitate carnage elsewhere.

When firefighters arrive, they are abused and spat on for doing their job.

This is what Burnham wants to bring to YOUR community.

He's dumping 1250 of them on Piddington.

He lectures us on the need for all parts of the country to ‘play their part’.

NO, WE DO NOT.

The only response should be mass deportations.

That is what Reform will deliver.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

There are more than 87,000 asylum cases, tied to 114,000 people, awaiting a decision on appeal.

This has more than TRIPLED in three years.

The average asylum seeker now gets to stay here another year while awaiting the outcome of their appeal.

Once they're finally processed, 2 in 3 rejected applicants successfully overturn that decision.

Afghans and Iraqis succeed 84% and 75% of the time.

As Home Secretary I will detain and deport all of these people.

Anyone who broke into Britain will be expelled.

No ‘asylum claim’ will be considered.

WE WILL TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK 🇬🇧

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

This is a devastating scandal.

Why did it take the brutal murder of our beloved Ann Widdecombe for the police to do their jobs?

The Police and the Home Secretary have serious questions to answer.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Labour's "one in, one out" deal is dead.

France refused to renew it.

Labour couldn't even keep its own gimmick alive.

1,500 illegal migrants were sent back to France.

We paid to bring 1,500 others in.

Meanwhile, 35,000 more crossed the Channel.

This farce cost the British taxpayer £84 million.

Reform will offer a new deal: NONE in, MILLIONS out.

We will leave the ECHR and disapply the Refugee Convention.

We will put the Royal Navy in the Channel to defend our border.

We will begin the biggest mass deportation program this country has ever seen.

To expel all the people the Tories and Labour allowed to break in to our country.

WE WILL TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK 🇬🇧

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

🚨 The Welsh Tories just voted AGAINST Reform’s motion to deny social housing to foreign nationals.

When people show you who they are believe them.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

When a Tory is confronted with their own record, this is what happens 😂

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

STATEMENT:

The man charged with murdering Ann Widdecombe with a hammer has now also been charged with preparing acts of terror against Nigel Farage MP.

Today, a court heard he allegedly travelled to Nigel's home last year and tried to break in.

A bottle of lighter fluid was found on the porch.

This apparent firebomb attempt was investigated at the time.

The police received CCTV footage of the incident.

It has since been revealed that CCTV from Nigel's home captured both a suspect and their car "over an extended period".

And yet, despite being in possession of that CCTV footage, the police claimed they could identify no suspects and closed the case.

Read those last two sentences again.

Counter-terror police have since referred themselves to the police watchdog, which is investigating a member of their staff.

Why did it take the brutal murder of my dear friend Ann for the police to do their jobs?

Anger does not begin to describe how we at Reform feel about this.

The Police and the Home Secretary have serious questions to answer about how threats against Reform are handled.

This is not going away.
