Home Secretary to pile pressure on Rishi Sunak with speech at right-wing conference - as official figures expected to show net migration hit record level
Speaking at the right-wing NatCon on Monday, Mrs Braverman will say: “I voted and campaigned for Brexit because I wanted Britain to control migration. So that we all have a say on what works for our country.
Following a report that lawyers and faith organisations have complained to the Bar Standards Board about Mrs Braverman, claiming she has breached its code of conduct with “racist sentiments and discriminatory narratives”, the Home Secretary – a qualified barrister – will also be unapologetic about her desire to bring immigration down.
“I’m not embarrassed to say that I love Britain. No true conservative is. It’s not racist for anyone, ethnic minority or otherwise, to want to control our borders.” On Sunday, Energy Secretary Grant Shapps attempted to play downplay concerns about the net migration figures, insisting refugee arrivals from Ukraine and Hong Kong had added perhaps as many as 300,000 to the numbers.
