The Tory peer highlighted Braverman's singling out of British Pakistani men over concerns about grooming gangs[1] and comments on small boats crossing the channel.

The Home Secretary drew criticism for repeatedly alluding to cases, including in Rotherham and Rochdale, that involved groups of men of mainly Pakistani ethnicity.
