Zia Yusuf has said that Reform UK would introduce the 'Polanski Law' if Nigel Farage's party gets into government.
As per Politics UK, Reform's Spokesperson for Home Affairs and Head of Policy said that Nigel Farage's party would introduce the 'Polanski Law' to make aiding illegal entry into the UK a criminal offence, regardless of intent.
He said that the law would carry a 2-year prison sentence.
Reform added: "the law will "stop the Green Party endorsed charity industrial complex from facilitating large scale illegal entry under the guise of humanitarian or charitable action.
"The legislation will not impede lifeboats saving those in genuine distress at sea."
Reform has been repeatedly taking personal aim at the Greens as Polanski's party continues to grow in popularity.
The Greens have argued that the UK should take more asylum seekers via official routes to reduce the dangerous crossing many make across the channel in small boats.
Polanski dismissed Reform's new law proposal as "desperate posturing".
