Sunak accuses Labour of 'rank hypocrisy' over migration

Rishi Sunak has accused Sir Keir Starmer of "rank hypocrisy" over the Labour leader's plan to establish a new Border Security Command to tackle people-smuggling gangs bringing migrants across the Channel.

The prime minister says Labour's plan will "offer an amnesty to illegal migrants" and that the government will get its planes to Rwanda off the ground.
