While failing Prime Minister Keir Starmer travels around Europe with the merry band of globalists (France’s Macron, Germany’s Merz and Poland’s Tusk) to offer yet again political support for Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky, back home things are going from bad to worse.
Trailing in the polls after the upsurging Reform UK party, and under severe pressure even inside his Labour party, Starmer decided today to announce cuts to immigration numbers and policy changes to make it harder to settle in the UK.
Starmer faces backlash from voters because of the insane levels of immigration wreaking chaos in public services and fraying the social fabric of UK society.
Associated Press reported:
“Starmer said he would end ‘Britain’s failed experiment in open borders’, less than two weeks after Reform UK, the hard-right party led by Nigel Farage, scored big victories in local elections. Labour and the center-right Conservatives, long the dominant parties in British politics, both saw their support crater in the contests for local government councils and mayors.
‘Every area of the immigration system — work, family, and study — will be tightened up so we have more control’, Starmer said during a speech in Downing Street. ‘We will create a system that is controlled, selective and fair’.”
Out-of-control immigration became a big factor in Britain’s ‘Brexit’ vote to leave the bloc.
But net migration in fact quadrupled after the UK left the Union, and it has taken the society to the brink.
“In recent years, concerns that the government has lost control of Britain’s borders have been fueled by the sight of thousands of migrants entering the U.K. on leaky, inflatable boats operated by people smugglers. Some 37,000 people crossed the English Channel on small boats last year, down from 45,755 in 2022, government statistics show.”
The Telegraph reported:
“Launching his long-awaited white paper in Downing Street, the Prime Minister said Labour would ‘take back control of our borders’ with measures that would aim to tighten every area of the immigration system, including work, family and study.”
Starmer promises that immigrations will fall, but has not set a number.
“However, he added: ‘Let me put it this way, nations depend on rules, fair rules. […] They give shape to our values, guide us towards our rights, of course, but also our responsibilities, the obligations we owe to each other. In a diverse nation like ours we risk becoming an island of strangers, not a nation that walks forward together’.”
Starmer also vows to bar foreigners who commit crimes, and to limit Judges’ powers to block deportations.
