I’m well aware of the importance of controlling immigration.

It's about safeguarding jobs, reducing strain on public services, and ensuring a fair system that puts British workers first.

My top team… 30,000 pieces of casework was crossed this year. All the lives changed, benefits paid, houses bid on, streets cleaned up, trees pruned back, bins collected, debt advice given and more..

Veterans employment is at record levels… rising again this year to 89%. So like much of what you say (which you probably know to be untrue), this too is bollocks. Evidence here: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/65ca3cbb…
