The Prime Minister was speaking at The Sun’s Never Mind The Ballots leaders’ event.
Rishi Sunak has claimed migrants are “queuing up in Calais” waiting for a Labour government so they can come to the UK.
The Prime Minister added: “By the way, I can tell you now they are queuing up in Calais waiting for a Starmer government so they can come here and stay here.”Immigration cropped up repeatedly during the event, which saw the leaders separately interviewed by The Sun’s Harry Cole in front of a live audience who asked questions.
Sir Keir said the backlog of asylum claims would double by the end of the year if the Conservatives were re-elected. Mr Sunak acknowledged “the numbers were too high” when discussing legal migration, but declined to say who was responsible.
