Today, at Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs), Andrew Rosindell M.P. reported on the overwelming consensus present in Romford, inviting the Prime Minister to visit the town and speak with local people.
I have had the privilege to be spending a lot of time with the law-abiding, tax-paying, hard-working patriotic people of Romford in recent months, and they have been telling me what they think. Does the Prime Minister agree with the people of Romford that we need a radical plan to control immigration and stop illegal immigration, to regain sovereignty over our human rights laws in this country, to tell the Mayor of London that we need more police to stop crime in the London Borough of Havering, and a fair funding settlement for Havering? Will the Prime Minister come with me to Romford market, following the footsteps of Margaret Thatcher, and meet the people of Romford? One thing I can tell him they do not want is to be taken back into the European Union by a socialist Government.
Andrew Rosindell M.P., Member of Parliament for RomfordMay I welcome my hon. Friend back to his place? I agree with everything he said, and I look forward to visiting him and his Romford constituents at the earliest opportunity.
The Rt Hon. Rishi Sunak M.P., Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
These comments were met with the approval of conservatives across the house.
On social media, Andrew summed up this parliamentary contribution as follows:
Speaking up loud and clear today for the good people of Romford at Prime Minister’s Questions @HouseofCommons - telling @RishiSunak what the people of Romford think and inviting him to follow in the footsteps of Margaret Thatcher and vist Romford Market to hear for himself!
I told the PM that we need a radical plan to control immigration; we must stop illegal immigration altogether; take back sovereign control over our British human rights laws; make the Mayor of London allocate more Police to Havering to help combat violent crime; and that Havering should receive a fairer funding settlement to prevent our council from going bankrupt! Rishi said he agreed with everything I said and that he would visit Romford at the earliest opportunity. I will hold him to that! Thank you, Prime Minister!
