•Priti Patel: Tory civil war meant public stopped listening to us
65% Informative
Dame Priti Patel is long seen as a bastion of the right on everything from law and order to migration and tax.
The former home secretary rejects the notion out of hand that labels are relevant or helpful right now.
Patel ’s argument is that the endless rounds of Tory civil war meant that the public stopped listening to the Conservatives .
Patel defends her friendship with Nigel Farage , but says he has no role to play in the Conservative Party .
She says the Tories were guilty of over-promising on areas like migration and not actually seeing it through.
Patel was one of the architects of the policy of sending migrants to Rwanda between 2019 and 2022 .
Patel oversaw the introduction of the post-Brexit immigration system.
In 2022 , when she was home secretary, the new system allowed 765,000 people to come to the UK , a record number.
Patel ’s rivals are likely to target her over those numbers.
Patel says the fact that the numbers are now falling is because her system gave ministers “the levers of control”.
