Former Prime Minister Sir John Major has criticised the previous government's Rwanda asylum plan, branding it "un-Conservative and un-British". The scheme aimed to deter people crossing the Channel in small boats by sending some migrants who arrived in the UK illegally to the east African country.

With a Labour landslide victory in July’s general election, John Major’s recent attacks on Conservative Eurosceptics, and Oasis set to return to the stage in 2025, you could be forgiven for thinking that Britain had been transported back to the 1990s.

Sir John Major said he dislikes 'intensely the way society has come to regard immigration as an ill' and warned that a Tory merger with Reform UK would be 'fatal'.
