Thank you to stellacreasy for raising the recent ban on refugees arriving by small boat being granted citizenship at Home Office Oral Questions today. As highlighted, these people have had their cases for asylum accepted and should be supported to integrate into British society.

#Shaminabegum made grave mistakes. But she's our responsibility and no one else's. Stripping her UK citizenship, and that of others abandoned in #Syria, is an abdication of responsibility. Jacob Rees-Mogg and I in the Financial Times today. Tony Vaughan KC MP Rabbi David Mason James O'Brien


Very interesting Financial Times piece from an unlikely duo on why it’s wrong to strip people of their citizenship. Refreshing to see tribalism set aside on this important issue. Delighted that Alf Dubs & Jacob Rees-Mogg will do a joint interview with me Times Radio 4:30pm today
