Reform UK's Zia Yusuf challenges Braverman's views on English identity
Reform UK's home affairs spokesperson @ZiaYusufOfficial joined Sky News' Sophy Ridge to discuss immigration and the debate over English identity. Reform UK has said that, if elected to government, it would suspend the asylum system, potentially leading to the deportation of around 90,000 people. Sophy Ridge asked Yusuf whether this would include the 15,000 children currently claiming asylum in the UK. Yusuf also distanced himself from fellow Reform MP Suella Braverman's comments on English identity. Braverman has said she considers herself British and of Asian ethnicity, but not English. Responding to the debate, Yusuf said that the idea that black English footballers and other ethnic minority sportspeople are not English was “an alien concept to me.” Sophy Ridge and Wilf Frost bring you: ◾️ The day’s essential stories from the UK and around the world ◾️ Agenda-setting interviews ◾️ Sky’s leading correspondents and editors with their analysis Follow us on X: https://x.com/RidgeandFrost Follow Sophy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sophyridge/ Follow Wilf on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wilfredfrost/ Listen to Cheat Sheet here: https://podfollow.com/cheatsheet/ For more content go to http://news.sky.com and download our apps: Apple https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-news/id316391924?mt=8 Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.skynews.android&hl=en_GB To enquire about licensing Sky News content, you can find more information here: https://news.sky.com/info/library-sales

What is the "Britannia Shield"? | Shadow defence secretary speaks to Sky News
James Cartlidge, the shadow defence secretary, will be giving a speech this afternoon at the Conservative Party conference outlining his party's plans for an Iron Dome-like system to protect the UK from missiles. The Tories estimate it will cost £10bn and can be done within five years.
