Zia Yusuf Proposes Major Reforms to Tackle UK Immigration Challenges

### Zia Yusuf Unveils Ambitious Plans for UK Immigration Reform

Zia Yusuf, a key figure in the Reform Party, is set to present significant measures aimed at curbing illegal immigration and preventing small boat crossings in the English Channel today. Yusuf's proposals include establishing a British equivalent of America's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which he believes will effectively tackle the current migration crisis.

The Reform Party has identified the surge of small boat arrivals as a critical issue affecting the UK. Yusuf's reforms focus on stringent enforcement measures to stop these crossings, asserting that the new agency would streamline processes for deporting individuals who arrive illegally. "As a result of our mass deportation programme, a Reform government will deliver net negative immigration," Mr Yusuf stated, outlining his vision for a more controlled immigration system.

In his speech today, Yusuf will detail not only the proposed creation of this agency but also other measures aimed at enhancing border security. He intends to increase collaboration with France to prevent crossings, as well as advocate for legislative changes that would make it easier to deport those who arrive unlawfully.

Yusuf’s approach reflects growing concerns among the public about immigration levels and the perceived inadequacies of current policies. His proposals aim to strike a chord with voters who prioritize national security and a robust immigration policy.
