Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the UK Conservative Party, has publicly advocated for major immigration reforms, emphasizing the need for a robust deportation bill.
In a video she shared online, Kemi claimed that from next year, two million immigrants could claim UK citizenship, and thus, the call for them to tighten immigration policies.
“We’ve introduced a deportation bill, because we are committed to bringing deportation down,” she revealed.
She also revealed that in February, the Conservative Party demanded that the Labor triple the time for new immigrants to get British passport but they turned it down and are now introducing a “half-arsed” version of their proposal which won’t work.

Badenoch’s proposed reforms include deporting all foreign criminals, implementing mandatory age checks to prevent individuals from pretending to be children, enforcing tougher visa rules, disapplying the Human Rights Act to immigration cases, and making asylum support repayable.
“It’s time to get tough. Our country is a home, not a hotel,” she added. “And if we don’t defend it, no one else will.”
