The ICE Queen

Reform defector's £9k trip to US to speak at anti-immigration foundation

REFORM defector Suella Braverman has been bankrolled by a think-tank which backed Donald Trump's Ice goon squad after immigration agents killed two people.

The former Home Secretary, who became the latest high-profile Tory to join Nigel Farage’s party this week, accepted a freebie trip worth more than £9,000 from The Heritage Foundation - a supporter of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) in the wake of the shootings.

US immigration control agents recently gunned down a nurse and an award-winning poet, sparking outrage.

Alex Pretti, 37, was killed by Customs and Border Protection in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last Saturday. Two agents have been put on administrative leave.
