Sir Keir Starmer’s response to the riots showed he is “deaf” to public concerns over immigration, Boris Johnson has said in his first intervention since the unrest. The Telegraph has more.
The former Prime Minister claimed Sir Keir had failed to understand the root causes of unrest across Britain after the killing of three young girls in Southport last week.
Sir Keir has described the protests as “far-Right thuggery” and insisted all those who took part in rioting will face the “full force of the law”.
In his weekly Daily Mail column, Mr. Johnson noted Sir Keir killed off the Rwanda deportation plan, which the former Prime Minister drew up on the first day of his premiership.
He also condemned his decision to close the Bibby Stockholm barge, which housed 400 asylum seekers and was intended to reduce the cost of housing migrants in hotels.
Mr. Johnson said: “Whatever you may have intended by all this, you gave the clear impression of a man who has no plan to stop illegal immigration, because he simply doesn’t care.
“Nothing excuses the behaviour of the rioters, and they deserve to be banged up.
“But nothing excuses a Government that seems deaf to public concerns, and that suggests, moreover, that they actively dislike all members of the public who share those concerns.” …
He suggested Sir Keir should proceed with a reported family holiday because his leadership had made “no difference” to the response to the riots other than to make it “marginally worse”.
Worth reading in full.
Bit rich for the architect of the reforms that brought us the recent eye-watering levels of immigration to criticise Labour on the issue. But consistency was never BoJo’s strong suit.

Impossible to comment on Miliband’s mental capacities as we’re not allowed to use profanity or abuse.
To say he is ‘out of his tiny mind’ would be inaccurate, as his mind is nowhere near that size…..
Do you know what this reminds me of? It reminds me when Stalin requisitioned all of the farms in Russia throwing off the Farmers who knew how to grow crops and maintain the food production cycle, As a result over 10 million people starved to death, but these were just a statistic to Stalin who continued with his 5 year plan.
Milliband is of the same stuff, millions of people are going to have insufficient fuel energy to heat and eat, the supply chain and farming and food production operations will not be able to operate fully and efficiently. Food will become scarce the choice will be minimal as it was in Russia and will be expensive.
They will be able to control the population through this denial of basic needs, and it will ensure a dramatic reduction in the elderly and sick during hard winters.
They did it in the 70,s this time they intend to go full throttle,it’s not stupidity it’s a deliberate plan.
The deaths will be hidden, of course, as people don’t “die of cold” but of respiratory infections, exacerbations of other conditions etc. And HMG has already proved that they can simply ignore excess deaths as a conspiracy theory. Or blame them on moneybox.
Indeed. In fact that will be an opportunity to push the latest offerings from Big Bill and his cohorts.
Didn’t Mao manage to starve a few million too? Also Zimbabwe.
The war on hydrocarbons which makes modern civilisation possible, is one of the greatest catastrophes in history, based on anti-science, anti-human and quite openly, totalitarian theologies. The fact that Millipede and his brethren, a small, shrill, corrupt miniority of hard of thinking apostles can impose such strictures on a population where the vast majority do not agree with said policies, is astonishing. One needs to reach back into the Tudor period and beyond for similarities.
At least our children and grandchildren will thank us. Thank us for inexplicably leaving accessible oil for them to burn up after these clowns have long gone with their self sabotage.
Let’s not forget Millibrain is just continuing where May, Johnson, Sunak (with the support of most illiterate MPs) left off.
He is, but he will do with the kind of zeal you see from lemmings heading for a cliff edge as fast as their legs can carry them.
The Tories have a lot to answer for. Turning into Labour Lite was not just a disaster for them but it was a death sentence for the rest of us. Having got rid of the Eco Socialist twerp years ago, he is now back in charge of our energy and there isn’t a worse person in the whole country that could be in that position. Miliband is a fundamentalist pretend to save the planet imposter who is so far up the arses of the UN and WEF they are going to need 10 bottles of Senna to get him out. The blithering idiot is promising “cheaper energy bills”. I am telling you now that all our energy bills are only going in one direction –UP UP UP, year on year on year as Labour and Miliband set about sending us back to the Stoneage where will be told we are “running out of stones”.
The Scots and Labour supporters all over the country hated Thatcher for what she did to coal mining. Miliband for what he is doing to decimate oil and gas should end up being detested even more than Thatcher. But isn’t it ironic that they all hated Thatcher for her war on coal miners, but now Labour and Miliband want to actually blow the coal mines up and shut down the North Sea. All so they can get a little gold star on their lapel from the UN. People, particularly in places like Aberdeen are going to hate the sight of this cretin before too long.

Without wishing to judge a book by its cover, he really is an unpleasant looking individual isn’t he?
My god you wouldn’t want to buy a second hand car off him that’s for damn sure.
With tens of thousands of jobs to go because of Labour’s stupidity, did the unions who represent them not pay enough to Labour? After all they have rolled over and given the unions everything they want so far.
