Transcript
00:00The failure to grip immigration is undermining trust in democracy itself.
00:05People vote for illegal immigration to be ended.
00:08They vote for foreign criminals to be deported.
00:11And yet it doesn't happen.
00:12This situation is completely unacceptable and it must change.
00:17Mainstream political parties must now have the courage
00:21to take the radical steps needed to fix this
00:23or the public will turn away from the mainstream.
00:27We're going to start by asking why this issue has not been fixed.
00:31The truth is this.
00:33Politicians are not properly in control of the immigration system.
00:37The courts are.
00:39The lack of parliamentary and ministerial control of the immigration system
00:43is undemocratic.
00:46Radical and sweeping change is needed to end the tyranny of the courts
00:50and restore democratic control over immigration.
