00:00as Liz Truss's government found to their cost.

00:05And amidst all of this, we have a Chancellor who is absolutely hopelessly out of her depth,

00:11out of her depth to a level that, frankly, it's embarrassing.

00:14It was Lee Anderson that called her Rachel from accounts during PMQs some time ago,

00:21and that really stuck, although Lee now says he feels sorry for her on a human level.

00:25And actually, I think we can all understand that.

00:28So what we're going to get is a budget that will be drafted by left-wing think tanks,

00:33a budget that will be drafted by people who've never run a business,

00:38who've never had a proper job in their lives, and that's the level of disconnect that exists.

00:46Now, I do think we're setting the pace on a number of things.

00:50I thought, despite her protestations, I thought a lot of what Shubhamah Mahmood said,

00:55yes, that he was driven directly by fear that Labour are losing votes, particularly in the Red Wall, to reform.

01:03And, rhetorically, we would agree with a lot of what the Home Secretary said.

01:09Indeed, there are some of us that thought it might just be a pitch.

01:13Maybe that's our next defector.

01:14I'm not sure if her backbenchers vote against her.

01:17That could become a bigger likelihood.

01:21There was no doubt, as I say, that we led the agenda on that,

01:26that illegal migration is making the country very, very angry,

01:31and she said it's tearing the country apart.

01:34But, economically, it is legal migration that is doing enormous damage to the British economy.

01:43And it's been so difficult to even talk about this subject without being screamed down.

01:49But just look at the direct link between falls in productivity and the mass importation of unskilled labour.

01:56In fact, that trend has been there now for the best part of 20 years.

02:00There are enormous costs to our benefit system of those, not just illegally, but legally, have come into our country.

02:11And, today, Zia is going to address some of that, as, indeed, we've touched on before.

02:17The idea that will get put at an alternative press conference today,

02:24which I understand is going on at the same time as this one,

02:27is that somehow reforms support a ballooning benefits bill.

02:33And yet, we're the ones proposing the most radical cuts to benefits,

02:37in numerical terms, that have ever been seen in the history of this country.

02:43So, I'm going to ask Zia to lay out our key five points today.

02:49We'll then, of course, take questions on that and anything else, as we always do.

02:54But I want you to bear in mind, with all the numbers that Zia is about to give you,

02:59these are before the Boris wave, before the Boris wave begin to become eligible.

03:07And for everything the Home Secretary has said about extending the number of years,

03:11you have to be in Britain to qualify, whether it's for ILR, whether it's for benefits,

03:15I don't see any changes happening to the Boris wave.

03:19And those numbers will start to hit by the end of this year,

03:24predicted by some think tanks to perhaps be one of the single biggest economic mistakes

03:30this country has ever made in its history.

03:34I'll now hand over for some of the details,

03:36although you might have heard them already on broadcast media this morning.

03:39I'll hand over to our Head of Policy, Zia Youssef.

03:42Good morning, everyone.

03:51Thank you for coming and for watching, if you're watching this on a live stream.

03:54So, tough decisions need to be made, is the refrain of the political class for years, decades now.

04:01British citizens constantly being told that they need to tighten their belts

04:05and they've got to accept paying ever more tax for ever worse public services.

04:10While that's been happening, as we're about to lay out,

04:13there has been the most extraordinary ballooning of British taxpayer expense

04:18being funneled to foreign nationals, including on our own shores,

04:21that you could possibly believe.

04:24The British state exists to serve British citizens.

04:27That is quite a radical idea these days in Westminster,

04:30which is why Nigel gets heckled whenever he says such a thing inside the House of Commons.

04:36But that is what it is for.

04:37And so, yes, we agree.

04:40The country is in an enormous amount of debt, closing on £3 trillion,

04:45thanks to the Tories, almost tripled it on their watch.

04:48We basically have no economic growth to speak of whatsoever.

04:52Real wages have barely done anything for people in this country for the last two decades.

04:56And we've seen the tax burden on people in this country.

04:59Tax is a percentage of GDP at World War II highs.

05:03Again, as Nigel said, we can thank the Tory party for all of that.

05:08The question is, who is going to bear the brunt of these, quote, tough decisions?

05:13And here's our perspective.

05:15It is foreign nationals who should first bear the brunt,

05:18before we ask any British citizens to make sacrifices.

05:22And that is the fundamental fault line right now in British politics.

05:27We are working incredibly hard to make Nigel Farage our next prime minister.

05:32And the reason for that is he will make every decision as...
