Tories are in disarray following Amber Rudd’s worrying statement last week
09 Oct 2016
Diane Abbott MP, Labour’s Shadow Home Secretary, speaking in response to Tory frontbenchers Michael Fallon and Justine Greening’s remarks that companies would not be asked to publish lists of foreign workers, said: “The Tories are in disarray following Amber Rudd’s worrying statement last week, contradicting each other as their policy falls apart at the seams.“The Tories anti-foreigner agenda is a distraction from their own complete failures of policy, and against the best interests of society.
“Many sectors risk collapse if the Tories press ahead with these plans on overseas workers: the city, farmers, the NHS, construction. We need answers from the Tories on how they will protect our economy, but they have no plan other than a risky hard Brexit which would threat our prosperity.”
