Starmer unveils plan to tackle small boat crossings

Sir Keir Starmer says Labour will end the Rwanda policy permanently, adding it is a "gimmick not a solution".

The Labour leader says his party will use new counter-terrorism powers to tackle people-smuggling gangs bringing migrants across the Channel in small boats and establish a new Border Security Command.
