Reform's crime crackdown: Can Farage really fly prisoners to El Salvador?


Listen Later

Nigel Farage is pledging to halve crime in Britain if Reform UK gets into the government.


In a speech in central London this morning, the Reform leader unveiled plans for a sweeping overhaul of Britain’s justice system, including 30,000 new prison places and 30,000 new police officers on the streets. It comes as a new J L Partners survey puts Reform six points ahead of Labour and a staggering 12 points ahead of the Tories.


He’s promising that no violent criminal or sex offender will be released early under his watch, and that foreign offenders will be sent back to their countries - or even jailed overseas in countries like El Salvador.


Camilla and Tim were there to witness the announcement as Farage says it’s time to end “two-tier justice” in Britain. But will it actually work and how much will it all cost?


And as Labour announces a massive overhaul of the water industry, including scrapping Ofwat the regulator, Camilla grills the environment secretary Steve Reed on our rising water bills.
