UK home secretary in US to call for rewriting of UN refugee rules so they are ‘fit for the modern age’
A Labour MP has urged LGBTQ+ Conservatives to condemn Suella Braverman’s speech, in which she will say that Britain should not grant asylum to people who are simply fearful of persecution for being gay.
Ben Bradshaw, a former minister, made the call before a speech the home secretary is due to make in the US where she will make her case for the rewriting of key international refugee rules so they are “fit for the modern age”.
