We’ve all seen the protests against the almost open-borders immigration forced on us by both the CINOs (Conservatives in name only) and then enthusiastically adopted by Labour. These protests have come at a rather unfortunate time for Labour as it looks like Labour is about to grant a ‘stay-in-Britain’ amnesty for anywhere between 90,000 and 120,000 mostly male-of-military-age illegal migrants already here. Plus the record number of new arrivals coming from France this year can also expect a warm welcome from Labour to the U.K. Our rulers assure us that we have nothing to worry about from this mass of new illegal migrants even though we know that many have destroyed their identity papers and have been coached by the people smugglers, migration charities and wealthy crooked immigration lawyers to lie about their age and their countries of origin in order to be granted leave to remain in Britain.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has been particularly outspoken in condemning not only the riots but the anti-immigration protests and has promised draconian measures – facial recognition, travel bans and Russian-style policing – to crush any opposition to his Government’s migration free-for-all. But Starmer’s refusal to accept that some people might have cause to be concerned about the level of immigration might seem strange. After all, in 2016, Starmer’s sidekick, Chancellor Rachel Reeves, warned that unless immigration was reduced after Brexit then there could be anti-immigration riots:
It’s a pity that during Starmer’s recent press conference about the protests, none of the supposed ‘journalists’ present thought to ask our Prime Minister whether he agreed with Reeves that people had good reason to be worried about the level of immigration or whether Reeves was deluded in her claim that there would be riots if immigration was not curbed.
