Zia Yusuf also said a Reform government would ban groups it deemed extremist, such as the Muslim Brotherhood

Reform UK has announced it would create an ICE-style agency to oversee the deportation of illegal migrants if it were in government.

Zia Yusuf, Reform’s new home affairs spokesperson, said on Monday morning that a Reform government would establish a UK Deportation Command.

Its task would be to deliver “Operation Restoring Justice” to fulfil the party’s plan of deporting 600,000 illegal migrants.

He also announced an overhaul of the Prevent counter-extremism programme to target “Islamist extremism”, and said a Reform government would ban groups it deemed extremist.

Yusuf further said that new laws would stop the “incendiary” act of churches being converted into mosques.
