In Thursday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley discuss how Andy Burnham’s controversial plan to distribute asylum seekers to middle-class constituencies is causing problems for Labour MPs, including York Central’s Rachael Maskell. She is opposed to housing asylum seekers at a local RAF base, despite her long-standing pro-refugee rhetoric.
