Boris Johnson: Keir Starmer is “Deaf” to Immigration Concerns

by Will Jones
10 August 2024 11:00 AM

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.

He’s a bloody hypocrite on so many levels. Does he think people suffer the same selective amnesia he evidently does??
Meanwhile, I think this is uncanny but very appropriate;

I just think that all face-coverings should be banned in public, and yes, that absolutely goes for Muslim women too. Just a blanket ban on them all. These chavs don’t look like Morris dancers to me, but I guess the police are now too busy tracing and arresting people for online posts that aren’t pro-Establishment so they’ve no time to intervene. Priorities…

”In the High St, Hounslow Muslim men, some masked congregate with weapons & a fire extinguisher. Some chant Allah Akbar.

A police van ambles past.”

Six million people who voted for his party presumably suffer from amnesia.

The flood has carried things so far that we have now reached the stagnant mere of party politics with its noisome and delirium-inducing airs. Far from the murders of three little girls attending that most innocent and guileless of amusements, a Swifties-themed dance class and bracelet-making workshop.

As for the Rwanda deportation plan, does Johnson not see the irony in that the man alleged to have committed these murders is a Welshman born of Rwandan parents?

It would be more fitting if Johnson and Blair both joined a Trappist Order, there to contemplate in penitence their portfolio of ‘mighty works’ that they have imposed on this suffering country.

I am extraordinarily suspicious of the ‘fact’ that the parents were Rwandan. Far too convenient for my taste.

Indeed. This is just the sort of karma rhetoric the Davos Deviants like to use. Apparently it provides them with a chuckle. It reminds me of the reason why Leicester was the first city to suffer Lockdowns.

FALSE. The Ethnic African Murderer from the Elite Tutsi tribe whose ancestral homeland is the Horn of Africa has British nationality only, with no ancestral connection whatsoever to the Welsh Tribe of the World’s Smallest Ethnic Group called Ethnic Europeans. Therefore he cannot be called “a Welshman”, regardless of bogus claims by Closet Marxists like yourself.

In the same way that Ethnic Europeans or Ethnic Africans, for example, whose mother gave birth to them in China, will NEVER be considered by the Chinese as Ethnic Oriental, much less as “Chinamen”.

The Rwanda deportation plan meant that for every criminal migrant we deported there, we’d import a Rwandan who needed long-term medical care. That “medical care” would include those with “mental health issues” … in other words people just like the ethnic-Rwandan murderer of three small girls.

The plan always was a crock of shite which would have done nothing to protect the British people from violent 3rd world immigrants.

“Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty” is attributed to Joseph Goebbels.
Sounds about right for just about any current politician.

Conflating race and culture is misdirection, mis/disinformation.

It does make it easier to shut down any debate about erosion of monoculture – racist!

Boris Johnson – no morals, no backbone, inveterate liar, murderer. Why anyone would listen to the mutterings of this degenerate is beyond me.

In this article, yet again the Telegraph downplays the Mass Stabbing of 13 Ethnic Europeans by an Ethnic African, mentioning only the 3 fatalities, and shoving all the other victims into the background.

At least Boris held the post of Prime Minister legally, unlike Hindu Sunak, Catholic Truss, and Jewish Two-Tier. As they all know perfectly well, the Law of This Land clearly states that No Catholic, Jewish, or by extension Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Buddhist, Maori Cannibal or Pagan Wiccan Voodoo Idiot may hold the post of Monarch or Monarch’s Prime Minister.

Only Protestants are legally entitled to hold those two posts, just as the 1689 Bill of Rights gives only Protestant citizens the right to bear arms for self-defence, a right given to them after the Catholic Massacres of the unarmed Protestants. This provision later formed the basis of the US Second Amendment.

And before anyone mentions Boris’ Catholic christening, he converted to the Protestant Church of England at university.

And before anyone trots out Jewish Disraeli, he also converted in order to advance in British society and politics, and therefore held the post of Prime Minister legally.

The “riots” were staged, paid actors, to introduce the gov’ts draconian online safety bill. Why don’t people know this? And so the gov’t could use the “full force of the law”. 😂 😂 😂 . I thought the Uk already had laws covering antisocial behaviour. Guess not. Hope Brits wake up.

3 million legal immigrants in just two years and 100,000 criminal ones ferried-in for a life of “free everything.

Does Johnson really think anyone who has been paying attention is going to listen to a word the serial liar says?

though his criticism of Two Tier Kier may be accurate, it really is rich given Boris massively ramped up legal immigration which totalled in excess of 3 million gross (the most relevant figure for cultural impact, the most important adverse consequence) over the three years, 2021 – 2023, and I expect 2024 will be of a similar running magnitude) as his swan song after 3 years of not pursuing promised conservative policies.
