Sadiq Khan slams Government over Tory’s anti-asylum outburst

S

adiq Khan on Tuesday accused the Government of stoking “division and hate” after a foul-mouthed assault by a number one Conservative MP on asylum seekers.

The London Mayor spoke out after Justice Secretary Alex Chalk defended the comment by Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson, who mentioned that any asylum seekers sad at being relocated to a barge off Dorset can “f*** off back to France”.
