Starmer is an enemy to his own people, and now he’s playing British citizens for fools. His U-turn on immigration is an effort to save his own political career.
“UK Prime Minister Just Conceded Post-War Consensus on Migration as an Unalloyed Good Is Dead,” by Oliver JJ Jane, Breitbart, May 12, 2025:
The United Kingdom experienced a massive Overton Window shift in real time on Monday as the country’s left-wing Prime Minister conceded it is now the government’s view that mass migration does not spur economic growth and that large numbers of arrivals weaken society.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer made a landmark announcement promising a significant cut in migration arrivals to the United Kingdom by the end of this Parliament, yet his set piece was immediately overshadowed by mass migrant boat arrivals on England’s southern coast and his own refusal to take concrete steps to change anything. Despite Starmer’s earlier vows to “smash the gangs”, illegal boat migrant arrivals continue to stack up, having already soared to all-time record numbers this year under Labour’s watch, with some 400 boat arrivals just this morning, with several injured and one killed on the way.
