Backbench Business - Windrush: 70TH Anniversarybackbench Business (14 Jun 2018)
Helen Hayes: ..., held in tension with a sense of the injustices, both of the past and of the present. It is, however, a matter of regret to me that some Members have made mention, again and again, of illegal immigration in this debate.

Backbench Business: Immigration Detention (Victims of Torture) — [Mr Virendra Sharma in the Chair] (14 Jun 2018)

Mediterranean Sea: Rescue Operations - Question (14 Jun 2018)
Lord Wallace of Saltaire: My Lords, the public perception here is that immigration is a problem largely for the European Union and that if we leave, our immigration problems will be largely resolved. The reality is that over the past 20 years, the majority of immigrants almost every year have come from outside the EU. In Africa the population has doubled in the past 25 years and is likely to double again in 30...
