WOMEN across the UK are “at risk of sexual assault and rape” because of small-boat migrants arriving from “predominantly Muslim countries”, Reform MP Sarah Pochin has claimed.

She joined fellow female Reform politicians to warn Britain faces an “invasion” of men who pose a threat to women and girls.

The comments, at a press conference in its London headquarters, draw a clear dividing line with the other major parties, which have avoided drawing a connection between violence against women and the nationality or religion of offenders.

Meanwhile, Linden Kemkaran, the Reform leader of Kent County Council, described trans women as “biological men pretending to be women” in another break with Westminster consensus - insisting they should not be allowed in female single-sex spaces.

Party leader Nigel Farage was not present but he endorsed their statements, claiming Labour and the Conservatives “completely failed to keep women and girls safe”.

Mr Farage added: “This is the next big issue in British politics.”

The party set out to place the spotlight on its most senior women as it drew a direct link between immigration and crime.
