Siobhan Whyte’s heartfelt plea has intensified the immigration debate following the conviction of an asylum seeker for the brutal murder of her daughter.
The devastated mother of Rhiannon Skye Whyte, a 27-year-old hotel worker, has warned the Government that the ongoing influx of small boat crossings puts more British women at risk of murder and assault unless immigration policies are changed.
Rhiannon was fatally stabbed at Bescot Stadium railway station in Walsall in October 2024 after finishing her shift at the Park Inn hotel, which is one of several accommodations used for asylum seekers awaiting processing.
During a press briefing this week, Whyte asserted that her daughter’s death was not an isolated incident but rather a consequence of a border system “out of control,” LBC reported.
“Her little boys have been left without a mum, my children have been left without a sister and I’ve lost my daughter.”

She urged for urgent action to halt small boat arrivals, claiming that the current framework allows dangerous individuals to enter the UK and interact freely with local communities.
Spealing with Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said: “He took Rhiannon’s life in 90 seconds, stabbed her through the brain stem.
“He has never shown any remorse, he called forensics liars, he just didn’t care, he didn’t tell us why, he just denied everything. So we’ve had to live with that. Her little boy’s been left without a mum, my children have been left without a sister, and I’ve lost my daughter through these scumbags that were allowed into this country illegally.
“Something needs to be done, they need to stop allowing them in, because it’s not Rhiannon, who will be next. Sadly there’s children, there’s young girls getting raped. When’s the next murder, and a family having to go through what we’re going through?”
Farage said: “Who next? There is nothing being done to change any of this. There is no plan with the French, and it doesn’t really matter how much money we send them, because we’ve given them £800 million to stop this since 2014, and I think cases like this genuinely outrage the British public as they should.
“This murder, this death was wholly unnecessary in every way.”
Her statements came in light of the sentencing of Deng Chol Majek, a Sudanese asylum seeker who was given a life sentence with a minimum of 29 years after being convicted of Rhiannon’s murder earlier this year.
The court was informed that Majek, who was staying at the Park Inn hotel with other asylum seekers, followed Rhiannon from her workplace into the deserted station late at night and attacked her, stabbing her multiple times in a frenzied and unprovoked assault.
In sentencing, the judge characterised the attack as “brutal and savage,” noting that Majek showed no remorse and was later captured on CCTV dancing and celebrating after the murder.
