Reform UK has pledged to deport all foreign nationals from Britain’s prisons, with discussions reportedly underway to free up prison spaces by sending offenders to El Salvador should the party gain power. Unveiling Reform’s prisons policy late on Sunday, the party’s Home Affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf vowed to “change the law so that those who commit serious crimes like murder, manslaughter, rape and serious violence serve their full sentences”. Shelagh Fogarty is joined LBC's political editor Natasha Clark who posed questions to Nigel Farage and Yusuf about their thoughts on prison reform, rehabilitation and also Farage's own safety. According to The Sun, the Reform UK leader has opened talks with the government of El Salvador on potentially renting prison spaces.
