Peter calls on the Government to get a grip of the Small Boats Crisis

  • Tweet
Monday, 8 September, 2025

The safety and security of Peter's constituents is his number one priority and is far more important than solving all of the world’s problems. Earlier today during Ministry of Defence Questions, he once again called on the Government to deploy the Armed Forces to physically prevent the thousands of illegal migrants crossing our waters on small boats. Enough is enough, and if we do not take this much-needed action now, we run the very real risk of being overrun with fighting-aged men roaming about our streets and endangering local communities. The Government must do its job and remember their priority is the British people!

Should the Government cut welfare funding to properly fund our brave armed forces?

Friday, 17 April, 2026
This year the Government plans to increase benefits spending by £18bn, taking the welfare budget to more than five times what the UK spends on defence annually.

That increase could pay for:
15 Royal Navy Frigates,
220 fighter jets, or,
250,000 more soldiers!
