Conservative MPs are frustrated with the party's ineffective messaging regarding hotels for asylum seekers. Leaked WhatsApp messages reveal concerns about the leadership's criticism of the opposition for policies previously implemented by the Conservatives. An advertisement recently released by the party listed amenities provided to asylum seekers, which included food, housing, and clothing, but contained exaggerated claims. MPs expressed that the advertisement was damaging to the party's image, with some suggesting that asylum seekers should be detained and deported instead. The dissatisfaction is further amplified by the rise of Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage, in polling.
Lewis Cocking expressed frustration, stating, 'This makes us look silly as we gave them all this too which is why we are in the mess we are in today.'
Kevin Hollinrake acknowledged concerns about messaging, stating, 'Agreed. Do message me directly with anything other ads of concern.'
