Reform UK Twists Jo White’s Border Message | Nottingham News

A viral audio clip falsely claims Jo White, Labour’s new Home Office minister, said “I don’t care if we stop the boats,” sparking outrage. White clarified she meant “stop those boats” — her priority is stopping crossings, not who does it. Reform UK’s Robert Jenrick shared the clip without apology, prompting White’s husband to demand an apology and a retraction. A Reform spokesperson admitted they may have misread the original Guido Fawkes report — which included her clarification — and took aim at Andy Burnham for ignoring the “small boats” issue. Despite the storm, White reaffirmed Labour’s border security progress, citing record drops in illegal crossings and removals, and pledged to rebuild a fair, controlled immigration system.
