Suella Braverman has torn apart Labour for having “no alternative plan” to end the small boats crisis in a Commons clash with Yvette Cooper.
The Home Secretary said the opposition party’s policies are “simply open borders masquerading as humanitarianism”.
It comes after the Court of Appeal ruled the Government’s plans to send migrants on a one-way ticket to Rwanda are unlawful.
Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said the judgement shows Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Mrs Braverman have “no plan to fix the Tories’ small boats chaos and their only policy is now completely unravelling”.
But the Home Secretary hit back: “As ever from Labour there is no alternative plan and moreover they don’t care that they have no alternative plan.
“The truth is our current system is rigged against the British people that’s why we’re changing the law.
“The Labour Party is perfectly content with this rigged system that’s why they want to keep it in place.
“Labour would keep the system as it is to enable more people to come to the country illegally so they can be settled into local communities more quickly.
“That is simply open borders masquerading as humanitarianism and she should be honest with the British people.”
She added: “While Labour continues to celebrate today’s judgement and every obstacle in our way we will not be deterred, we will not give up, we will do whatever it takes for the British people to stop the boats.”
