Likening Braverman's plan to her predecessor Priti Patel's, Cooper challenged the practicality of the plans, saying the government simply doesn't have a returns policy for 'illegal' arrivals, often indefinitely detaining people. Cooper told MPs: 'We can't afford any more slogans and not solutions, just government by gimmick, ramping up the rhetoric on refugees and picking fights simply to have someone else to blame when things go wrong.'
