Party leader courts controversy by calling those who disagree with his immigration policies ‘un-British’
Criminals involved in cross-Channel people-smuggling would be treated like terrorists under an illegal immigration policy announced by Keir Starmer, who labelled those who disagreed with his plans “un-British”.
The Labour leader, who is holding talks at The Hague in the Netherlands with officials from Europol and other bodies on Thursday, has suggested that an agreement to send back people who cross the Channel could involve accepting quotas of asylum seekers via the European Union. But in interviews he would not be drawn on the number of people he would be willing to take in under the deal that Labour believes it can reach with the union.
