Reform UK leader confirms extreme turn in immigration policy: Women and men will be deported, children 'can be discussed'...
Nigel Farage, leader of the British Reform UK party, has openly stated that if he becomes prime minister, he will deport women asylum seekers from Afghanistan, despite facing the brutal Taliban regime. This is a sharp reversal from Farage's previous statements, who had claimed that he would not send women back to a fundamentalist Islamic regime.
During an interview with Sky News political editor Beth Rigby at the Reform UK party conference in Birmingham, Farage was asked if he would “detain and deport” women and children. His answer was a straightforward: “Yes.”
When confronted with his August statement that he was not discussing women and children, Farage claimed that he was referring only to immigrant men. He had previously said: “There are so many illegal men in Britain, we are not at the stage yet to discuss women and children.”
But this time he was clear: "Those who cross the English Channel, men and women, will be stopped and deported. For the children, we will think...".
Manipulation with promises
Another surprising turn of events for Farage was his promise to stop migrant boats within two weeks of taking power. Speaking at the party conference, he made it clear: “You can’t come here illegally and stay – I will stop the boats within two weeks of taking power.”
But in the interview with Rigby, he changed his tone, saying that "legislative approval" was needed to make this happen.
In an attempt to deny the earlier promise, Farage said he had not said “within two weeks of taking power.” However, the video and the official Reform UK transcript show otherwise.
Farage said he would pass a new law called the "Illegal Migration Act", which would include:
-Withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights;
-Closing hotels for asylum seekers;
-Accommodating them on military bases;
-Starting deportation flights within two weeks of the law's approval.
According to him, this combination of measures will stem the wave of immigrants leaving France.
Farage's hope for power: Expects the fall of the British government in 2027
Although the next general election is due in 2029, Farage claims the British government will fall in 2027 due to economic and social crises. Reform UK is trying to gain ground in the 2026 local elections in Wales, Scotland and England, aiming to control local councils and national assemblies. / Adapted from "Sky News"
