Govt asylum accommodation statement is an admission of their failure Ministers admit it won’t cut costly hotel use, it’s on top of hotels It’s because they let backlog soar w 40% drop in asylum decisions 98% of last yrs cases not decided As for their barges - they don’t exist
Time & again Tories chase headlines instead of doing the hard work to go after smuggler gangs, clear the backlog, reform resettlement & family reunion & get a new agreement w France to stop dangerous crossings undermining our border security & putting lives at risk./2
@YvetteCooperMP Like Brexit and the Cooper amendment nobody cares Cooper
@YvetteCooperMP Approximately 51,000 migrants in hotels at a cost of £49m a week. We could pay for a plane ticket at £960 each and it will STILL be less than what we're paying
@YvetteCooperMP Isn’t this language, apart frm calling out Tories for not sticking to their own policy, that Labour thinks the matter is “worse” i.e., that they think immigration is “worsening”? Wouldn’t labour consider the consequences of the actions of the Tories as a good thing? @RishiSunak
@YvetteCooperMP If the air force bases were good enough for the UK military, then they will be perfectly acceptable for any genuine asylum seeker.
@YvetteCooperMP If they are in need of genuine asylum then they can go through the legal route after all they have come through atleast 30 safe countries and all they are coming here for is our handouts and why do they complain about accommodation when they are supposed to be fleeing for lives
@YvetteCooperMP Says someone on the hard left (when you scratch the surface).
@YvetteCooperMP Yes and what you want Cooper is open borders keep@them@here costing even more murderers rapists migrant workers abc the 10% who could be here 😡😡😡😡😡labour never trusted in this . She let in 3.5 million last time with no checks and look at that legacy fir 20 yrs
@YvetteCooperMP Yvette your performances in the house are nothing less than brilliant. Watching tie Tory ministers in knots is just fantastic
