Shabana Mahmood has said she finds it “deeply offensive” when MPs quote Tommy Robinson at her in the Commons, after the far-right activist backed the government’s sweeping asylum reforms.

Asked about his comments, the home secretary told the BBC’s Political Thinking podcast: “I find it so offensive actually, in the chamber, when people were quoting that particular person at me.

“This is a person who hates me because I'm a Muslim, who thinks that I'm a lesser kind of human being because I'm a Muslim... So it's deeply offensive”, she said.
