People smuggling is one of the most vile crimes and crosses borders.

While the Tories implode and Reform have no answers. Keir Starmer and Labour are leading from the front to secure our borders and keep people safe.

I doubt that the call to defend against human traffic will land well across the canal; I'm just going to be honest here @maxbrockbank.com @kajakallas.bsky.social we already had those talks & an agreement as EU; if you want in;you know what to do #Rejoin https://home-affairs.ec.europa.eu/policies/migration-and-asylum/pact-migration-and-asylum_en

aafkevultink.bsky.social•26 days ago

You didn't invent the migrattion wheel Labour. It never was @kajakallas.bsky.social her responsebillity to solve your own border issues. You KNEW you were an ISLAND. Don't use Human Rights as excuse to make that Kallas her problem. We're not THAT stupid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POH14-HMGFc

aafkevultink.bsky.social•26 days ago

Look the UK was never in Schengen. It never was EU's responsebillity to defend your border, that was always your own responsebillity. It is not our job to safeguard that, unless when under attack then we ofcourse will stand with you as an ally.

In committee Braverman was forced to admit that channel crossing refugees who have no other way to claim asylum are LEGAL.

Labour's stance is no different from the 🦆ing Tories.

Leading from the front would be taking us back into the EU and the protections it offers.

delff.bsky.social•26 days ago

Welfare cuts prove that's not true.

johnalex.bsky.social•26 days ago

Unless you're disabled or expected re nationalisation of essential utilities, those pledge things the lying bastard spewed to sucker people into voting for him.Saying that he seems quite at home with the daily mail.

indycelt.bsky.social•26 days ago

Labour has no future thanks to #StarmerTheSpineless and his toxic #RedTory #Liebour party! They are an abomination and disgrace to the Labour Party, it's proud history, beliefs and standards and not worthy of using the name Labour

indycelt.bsky.social•26 days ago

The #Liebour #RedTory parasites are no better than the extremist right wing #ToryScum & #ReformUKFascistParasites have parroted the same rhetoric,divisive propaganda reminiscent of nazi Germany! #StarmerTheSpineless & his toxic cabal are attacking the vulnerable & needy while the rich crooks prosper

neiljg.bsky.social•26 days ago

Where are the safe routes that would end the need for the treacherous journeys to get here?

annoyed-aldo.bsky.social•25 days ago

PLEASE for the love of God don't got "FULL FARAGE" on these poor persecuted people ensure our actions are HUMANE and not dragonian 👍🏻

jedi-shaman.bsky.social•25 days ago

Asylem seekers are not illegal immigrants.

Austerity is the real enemy

gdphotos.bsky.social•26 days ago

Your policies are disgusting. You are legitimising the far right views on immigration and making the poor pay for the rich. Can we argue - no - you are busily restricting our rights to protest. I won’t be voting for you again.

garriecoleman.bsky.social•26 days ago

I used to wonder why Labour keeps flogging Tory dead horses, as if they haven’t had the past 14yrs to learn from. Then I remember they’ve been taken over by people who’ve succeeded only in making this Labour Govt indistinguishable from the Tory Govts that preceded it.

hoodyindy.bsky.social•25 days ago

Red Tories, Fuck Off!

lucyarnold.bsky.social•25 days ago

You might find that no answers are better than hitting the poorest with benefit cuts as an answer. Just saying.

cleonaw.bsky.social•26 days ago

It's very simple... Provide safe routes for people to apply for asylum and they won't need to pay the people smugglers. The 'vile crime' is labour cutting benefits to push more people into poverty.

dunite.bsky.social•26 days ago

Labour "...keep people safe." Unless they have a disability, are elderly, have more than two kids or are misfortunate enough to simply be poor, in which case you throw them under a sodding bus.

naffdoodaa.bsky.social•26 days ago

"Secure our borders"...?
The only land border we have in on another island.
This is a manufactured problem that can easily be solved by either:
a. Allowing asylum seekers to apply from outside the borders
b. Providing safe transport cheaper than smugglers

naffdoodaa.bsky.social•26 days ago

If we, an island nation, are incapable of providing transport that is better than 60 people in a 10 person dinghy, then our borders are not worth protecting.

debdebdebbie.bsky.social•26 days ago

This government is actively ensuring that poor and vulnerable people are suffering and dying, by their new welfare cuts!

jindre.bsky.social•26 days ago

Because the Labour Party refuse to open up safe and legal routes to asylum in the UK, they have effectively become the best business partners the smuggling gangs could ever hope for

andrewadams99.bsky.social•25 days ago

I'm not saying the people smugglers are stand-up guys or anything, but they're certainly no worse than those who want to keep refugees out of this country by any means possible, and oppose offering safe alternatives.

gjdop.bsky.social•26 days ago

People smuggling was not an issue until incompident Westminster wankers decided to remove every legal way.

robbrotherstone.bsky.social•26 days ago

I'm a labour voter, but not next time. I give you the EU and not joining single market and customs union, slashing benefits, no wealth tax, fawning to trump. Not what I voted for, and not next time.

padrob.bsky.social•26 days ago

Ok. But let’s see Sir Keir stand up to Trump. And become much more pro Europe. Single market deal at the very least. Our future is with Europe. No more Americas poodle

maketotalcollapse.bsky.social•26 days ago

Cool, you're doing safe routes then? Or just more deaths at sea?

jgibson84.bsky.social•25 days ago

Absolutely gross from Labour.
Blaming immigrants for the current financial problems is completely false.
BREXIT is responsible.
Reverse Brexit.

roysaywhatnow.bsky.social•26 days ago

Gross from Labour. So instead of challenging Reforms narrative you dipshits have decided to tell Reform voters that their ignorance and hatred of "illegal immigration" is valid.

Labour needs to crash and burn at the next election. Vote Green or Independent. Get These Tories Out.

firmlyaground.bsky.social•26 days ago

It depends on a cunning pivot (from anti-migrant to anti-migrant-trafficker) that average reformistas are the Neil long and unable to appreciate. It makes Starmer look like a well meaning but naive wonk.

firmlyaground.bsky.social•26 days ago

.. average reformistas are unwilling and unable … 🙄

damonthedemon.bsky.social•26 days ago

Agreed. Vote Green💚 and lets GTLO (Get Tory Labour Out)

sloanelysbeth.bsky.social•26 days ago

keir starmer is a far right shithead.

utterflannel.bsky.social•25 days ago

Reform Lite.

Tax the Fucking Rich you utter cowards

sylvia-suffragette.bsky.social•26 days ago

SAFE ROUTES WILL STOP SMUGGLING GANGS

kevstringer1.bsky.social•26 days ago

That's too easy, too obvious and wouldn't appease the right wing demographic they're trying to attract.

jindre.bsky.social•26 days ago

The same rw demographic Labour are trying to court, are convinced Starmer is a full on Marxist Islamist Remoaner.
This stupid game Labour are playing is both hilarious and terrifying

kevstringer1.bsky.social•26 days ago

It will also ensure they don't get a second term.

jindre.bsky.social•26 days ago

Yup, guaranteed one-term government.
Waiting for LP backbenchers not on the gravy train of corporate largesse and sinecures to shit it big time come 2029 lol. Wankers!

colinbythesea.bsky.social•25 days ago

Labour are looking no better than the Tories and Reform now. Scoring political points from human suffering. Open safe and legal routes. Process asylum claims quickly. Open a processing centre in Calais. This would destroy the people smugglers market and solve the problem.

obbgf.bsky.social•25 days ago

Are you now employing the same sound bite writers as the Tories/Reform/BNP etc?

realjohncarvill.bsky.social•26 days ago

Wise up.
