TL;DR Summary

Home Secretary Suella Braverman has criticized politicians for being "too squeamish" on immigration in her Conservative conference speech, stating that moving to a richer country has become a realistic prospect for billions of people. She warned of an impending "hurricane" of migration coming to the UK and pledged to do "whatever it takes" to stop small boat crossings. Braverman's provocative language and description of potential migration as a "hurricane" have drawn criticism, with some MPs cautioning against alarmist language and the demonization of minorities or vulnerable individuals. The speech also saw a fellow Tory politician expelled from the conference hall for heckling Braverman's comments on "gender ideology."
