Former immigration minister Robert Jenrick said a ‘fundamentally different approach’ is needed.
Rishi Sunak does not understand the importance of curbing legal migration, a Tory former immigration minister has claimed.
Mr Jenrick, who resigned as immigration minister in December in protest at Mr Sunak’s Rwanda deportation plan, told GB News on Friday: “I didn’t feel that the Prime Minister understood the importance of legal migration to the British public.” The Conservative MP for Newark continued: “I think that the Prime Minister, like others, took the view that legal migration didn’t matter and that Brexit, if it was anything, was about taking back control but not bringing down the numbers. I disagree with that.”
Ex-minister Mr Jenrick called for a “fundamentally different approach” to immigration, telling the broadcaster: “We’re clearly going down the wrong path. We’re living in a country with net migration of 600,000 or 700,000, and we’re not stopping the boats.” Mr Jenrick quit his Government role over Mr Sunak’s Rwanda Bill, arguing it would not act as a strong enough deterrent to stop asylum seekers arriving via small boats.
