During the exchange of Prime Minister’s questions, Faraj said that voters supported Brexit “because we wanted to withdraw our boundaries”.
Faraj said: “Does the Prime Minister understand that this demand is even more in 2016?
“Does he understand that the country’s demand is that you say to the French President, ‘We will not accept men out in the English channel’ and you are not determined by a rapid arrogant, anti-Brexit French President? ‘
Responding to the Commons, Sir Keir accused of exploiting the issue for political gains.
The Prime Minister said, “We are fixing the dirt that we have inherited and working with other countries to ensure that we take necessary measures to stop the people who cross the channel.”
