We ‘ll Stop People From Coming To UK- Kemi Badenoch Vows
Tory leader Kemi Badenoch has pledged stricter immigration policies, warning the UK can no longer sustain current levels.
Badenoch admitted past Tory governments failed to curb migration effectively but vowed to address the issue “without fear.”
Proposing a hard annual cap on legal immigration without specifying a figure, Badenoch also insisted the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) would not hinder necessary actions.
“Immigration is at a pace too fast to maintain public services,” she said. “For decades, the political class has presided over mass migration… The system that replaced free movement is not working.”
Badenoch stressed the importance of integration, saying migrants must adopt British values.
“Without a shared national identity, our country will suffer,” she warned, criticising the strain on housing, healthcare, and wages caused by mass migration.
She pledged to review policies, treaties, and laws, emphasizing transparency and stricter visa limits.
New migration figures tomorrow are expected to show a decline, but Badenoch cautioned against complacency.
“We can no longer be naïve,” she said, hinting at reforms to prevent legal loopholes and misuse of the system.
