Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 July 2023. It occurred during Debate on bill on Illegal Migration Bill.


Illegal Migration Bill

Presumably it is the hon. Gentleman’s most devout hope if he takes power in 15 months’ time, but charming as he is, it is a mystery to me why he thinks when he asks President Macron to take these people back, he will do so. Of course he won’t! Nothing will happen. May I gently suggest that, if there is a Labour Government, they will quietly adopt this Bill once it is an Act?
