"Keir Starmer will promise to rip up the government’s Rwanda scheme and divert £75m to fund hundreds of new specialist officers to tackle people-smuggling with new counter-terror powers"

Oh FFS. Divert £75m into safe routes, and THAT will stop the people smugglers, you sad power fetishist.
Whatever you think of them, people smugglers are not terrorists. They are organised criminals who will move on to the next opportunity when this income dries up.

@BashStKid Exactly. La Elphicke defecting has all been a setup. Starmer is launching his new jackboot force in her constituency today.
