Right to remain
The PM arrived to Labour conference on Saturday morning, and tore into Reform UK’s plans to cancel indefinite leave to remain, during a chat with school pupils.
Asked about the plans, which would impact hundreds of thousands of people, he said: “These are people who’ve been in our country a long time, contributing to our society, maybe working in – I don’t know – hospitals, schools, running businesses, our neighbours, and Reform says it wants to deport them in certain circumstances.
“I think it is a real sign of just how divisive they are and that their politics and their policies will tear this country apart. It is what it is to be British that we are able to be reasonable, pragmatic, tolerant, live and let live. To tear away at that will destroy our country. I feel very, very strongly about this.”
