The step-up in anti-migrant rhetoric from the government is shameful and dangerous.
Migrants are our neighbours, friends and family.
To suggest that Britain risks becoming “an island of strangers” because of immigration mimics the scaremongering of the far-right.

I can’t see myself returning to the #altconservative pen any time soon
Starmer has sold this country out to the USA, is paving the way for fascists and is at every turn proven to be an anti-democracy, racist, small-minded bigot
He needs removing from office
We celebrated VE day last week and do a disservice to the memories of those who defended the UK.
This is Chamberlain-esque behaviour.
The country was rebuilt, thanks to immigration.
This is dangerous!
Left of centre politicians don’t belong in hard right parties.
This isn't Labour, This is a mixture or Tory and Reform with Labour icing.
It’s what we need. Dump the rotting corpse of labour and start afresh.
Starmer's at the head of a cabal that now controls all the party machinery including the ability to suspend people to cancel their candidacy if they look set to oppose the Thatcherite agenda
What they won't do is change the policies. The people you need to turn on him are the ones who conspired with him to lose 2 elections.
They're not there to win elections if they have to offend their sponsors to do it.
Labour was elected to tackle those, not parrot Reform’s scapegoating, which will never improve people's lives.

Furthermore you should have known that was what you were voting for. There were ample ways to find out.
If you didn't know then you need to review where you get your information and fix it so you don't get fooled again.
I resigned my membership today. Any number of reasons behind it but this was the last straw.
If they are not, then he should apologise and fire whoever wrote them.
My response (sadly):
It's just wrong.
There were ample reasons to get out before that but I find it surprising people are leaving now when they must have thought genocide was OK
I am so angry with the Labour leadership.
I didn’t vote for this, or for attacks on the disabled and most vulnerable in our society.
Labour are too busy chasing Reform votes to deal with real issues.
I will not vote for Starmer’s Labour again.
Corbyn is son of a teacher and an engineer.
The problem is, they’ve never been near any of these communities, that are being crammed full of people
All they have is buzzwords that they read in The Canary - Landlordism 😂😭
Let it die and let other parties replace this vile mess.
LibDems and Greens were boosted in English Local Elections.
Plaid Cymru is polling higher in Wales.
If you were going to try pretend Reform are the threat then it’s a nonsense since Labour and Reform are the same with Starmer.
The "I'm staying to fight them" argument no longer washes.
Labour cannot be redeemed
*We* need MPs to stand up against these things but we need them to end Labour not support it.
One of those 'migrants' (people are so much more than that label) happens to be my wife.
Who's paid more tax, employed more people here, used the NHS much less than I.
Nadia, how can you stomach being part of that party?
But instead of using this to save a country that had been misrun into ruin, he risks losing his own party by mimicking the far-right.
This is why people feel let down by politics btw
Look and see what's happening to the migrants from Mexico who were working their socks off daily so that they could enjoy a decent live in America.
Look at what's happening here now,this is the future of the UK and it stinks.
Yes it is. #ShameOnStarmer
Labour needs to stop chasing Reform voters, and focus on the massive job in hand of fixing Britain after 14 years of Tory destruction.
This Labour party are disgusting.
Deport.
Labour are a shinking ship
I'm disgusted by this hard right Labour party. New Labour under Blair was a huge disappointment, this iteration of the party is an utter disgrace.
Almost all the PLP were selected because they support this agenda
If they do change leader before the next GE, don't be fooled into thinking that indicates any change in direction
Underinvestment = ie.
not having the money to pay for the rapid rise in population
This is student politics, from you, Nadia.
She’s arguing for her own upper middle class guilt.
Try walking in the shoes of people in these overcrowded, underfunded towns
He's being evil but he's not making a mistake
Take the plunge. Burn the barn down on your way out.
Anything less at this point is complicity tbh.
Please stand up to your leader. Move to a party that embodies modern Britain.
This is who Labour are (since 2020).
There is no mechanism for ousting the cabal who now runs it since they can suspend anyone standing against them (negating the candidacy no matter how spurious the basis)
That or Reform.
Might as well spend those 4 years not propping up the shit show 🤷♂️
Are the public more concerned about immigration or racist than we think?
Greens & Lib Dem need to step up and give us a viable 2nd party.
You’re in the wrong party now.
