We have got to work straight away on fixing the asylum system and protecting our border.

That has already included a surge in capacity on returning failed asylum seekers, as demonstrated by last week’s flight to Vietnamand Timor-Leste. I will be considering options and will take a view on the future use of the Northeye site in due course.
