Just a few days ago, Rishi Sunak warned that illegal migrants were 'queuing up' in Calais waiting for a soft-touch Starmer government so that they can come to the UK and stay here.However, he could have also spoken of other people eagerly anticipating Sir Keir in Downing Street: the tens of thousands of illegal migrants who are already here.
Read More Keir Starmer hopes July will be unseasonably wet to reduce the number of Channel crossings The inescapable implication of such a move would be to add an estimated 90,000 migrants now earmarked for removal to the safe African country to the asylum application process. No longer waiting for deportation, they would simply join the asylum queue.
The genuine sanction of removal to Rwanda would be replaced by no threat or dissuasion, rather a latter-day version of the welcome mat that Tony Blair infamously produced for EU migrants in the early 2000s.Sir Keir's oft-repeated vow to 'smash the criminal boat gangs' is accompanied by a solemn pledge to set up a 'new Border Security Command'.
After all, arch-Remainer Sir Keir has made no secret of his desire to renegotiate our post-Brexit trade deal with the EU, despite reports that Brussels will insist on our accepting 100,000 of their illegal migrants as the price. I hope and trust that voters will see through Labour's subterfuge on immigration.
