Enda Brady: UK correspondent on Prime Minister Starmer cracking down on international students applying for asylum - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Prime Minister Starmer has announced plans are in place to crack down on international students applying for asylum in the UK in a bid to address migration figures.

An immigration white paper setting out the proposed reforms in mid-May will include measures to reduce the number of UK students making asylum claims after their visas expire.

UK correspondent Enda Brady says Nigel Farage's Reform Party is gaining popularity - and the Government is looking to push back.
