Migrant crisis: 'Now Labour's one-in, one-out deal has failed, it is time to leave the ECHR,' Jacob Rees-Mogg declares
Jacob Rees‑Mogg blames Labour’s failed migrant deal, calling for Britain to exit the ECHR.
On 28 January 2026, Jacob Rees‑Mogg, a senior Conservative MP, aired criticism of the UK Labour government’s “one‑in, one‑out” migrant deal during a GB News interview. He said the agreement, announced in late August 2025 by Prime Minister Keir Starmer alongside French President Emmanuel Macron, has failed to curb the influx of asylum seekers. Rees‑Mogg argues the deal undermines national sovereignty and demands the United Kingdom withdraw from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). He calls for urgent policy changes and a re‑assessment of Britain’s commitments under the ECHR framework, citing growing public frustration over migrant flows and the strain on local resources. The debate highlights divergent views on immigration policy within UK politics.
