Britain’s opposition Labour party said the government is planning to cut its border force budget by 6 percent in each of the next two years, citing “whistleblowers” within the agency that it didn’t identify.
The reduction would result in 88 million pounds ($124 million) of cuts during that span, Labour said on its website Saturday. Border Force staff say they were told in internal meetings to expect two years of 6 percent cuts, the party said.
