Reform UK Criticizes BBC for Inviting Illegal Immigrants
Update: 2025-12-05
Description
Reform UKs Zia Yusuf criticizes BBCs Question Time for featuring illegal immigrants, calling it a scandal that license fee money was used to air their perspectives. Yusuf, appearing on an immigration special, debated with an Afghan man who had entered the UK without permission and had been rejected by six other countries. Following the broadcast, Yusuf tweeted his outrage, questioning what would be next. This incident follows earlier criticism from Nigel Farage, who accused the BBC of double standards. During the program, Yusuf was asked if he would deport the Afghan man, who explained his unsuccessful asylum claims in several countries due to the ongoing war in his home country. The BBC responded, stating that the program aimed to address immigration and featured panelists with diverse views, including two individuals with direct experience of the asylum system who had been granted refugee status.
