British Reform UK politician Rupert Lowe entered a fiery debate as he strongly rejected calls for an amnesty for illegal migrants in Britain.
Immigration lawyer Ivon Sampson entered a heated debate with British Reform UK politician Rupert Lowe on GB News yesterday (23 January) over the tracking of migrants.
Speaking on the news channel, Rupert says the interests of British taxpayers are being put behind those of illegal migrants. Meanwhile, Ivor commented that the deportation of over a million illegal immigrants in Britain is ‘an impossible task.’
Speaking from Great Yarmouth, Rupert said that we ‘have to start behaving like a sovereign nation’ after The Telegraph revealed that up to 585,000 immigrants are living in London.
He also commented that most immigrants are ‘not asylum seekers’ or ‘economic migrants.’ Rupert also said the British taxpayer is being ‘effectively mistreated by the government’ and ‘treated like second-class citizens.’
Rupert later added that the UK must execute several ‘treaties’ to deport illegal migrants, not just leave the ECHR. Meanwhile, immigration lawyer Ivon Sampson disagreed and said there is a ‘practical problem to all of this.’

He explained: “Our prisons are already full to the brim – where do we put them? That’s another problem. You say it’s a simple solution to remove them. Estimates are that removing a million people from the country would take 50 to 75 years.
GB News host Matt Goodwin then quizzed Ivor about where he got those statistics from, to which Ivor replied that the Government ‘knows that it is an impossible task.’
Rupert then stated that we ‘have to take back our own borders’ and ‘declare a national emergency like Trump is doing.’ He also said that as a nation, we must be prepared ‘to make hard decisions and deport, deport, deport.’

When replying to Ivor’s argument, Rupert said, “These human rights lawyers pork barrel a living off the back of all this Tony Blair legislation, which has created our problem.”
He then called for tougher measures for migrants who should be sent to stay in ‘uncomfortable, untested camps’ on remote islands.
It comes after a report by The Telegraph revealed that 585,000 illegal migrants are living in London, equivalent to one in 12 of the city’s population.
