Nigel Farage tears into Keir Starmer at PMQs over record-breaking small boat arrivals
Daily Express ^ | April 30 | Daily Express

Nigel Farage angrily tore into Sir Keir Starmer’s record on small boat crossings days after it emerged 10,000 migrants had already arrived on Britain’s shores this year. In a furious Prime Minister's Questions row, the Reform UK leader demanded that Sir Keir finally admit his “smash the gangs” rhetoric was merely an election slogan and not successful in ending the UK’s migration madness.

Mr Farage told the House of Commons: “This year, 10,000 young, undocumented males have illegally crossed the English Channel into our country – a 40% increase on this time last year, many coming from cultures that are somewhat alien to ours. They are being housed at a cost of many billions of pounds a year in hotels, and increasingly in private rented homes. The effect on communities is one of a sense of deep unfairness, actually bordering on resentment.

“In Runcorn alone [Where a special election is being held], there are 750 of these young men in just in one constituency alone.

“Is it not time to admit that ‘smash the gangs’ was nothing more than an election slogan, and not a policy? Isn’t it time to declare a national emergency and act accordingly?"

Sink their boats and they will stop coming. These are not refugees.

I was pointing out that the English were ingenious during WWII using so many “outside the box” means to defend their coasts against the mightier Germans but can’t seem to do a damned thing about wogs in rickety boats decades later?

We’re not that much better.

“...This year, 10,000 young, undocumented males have illegally crossed the English Channel into our country...”

That’s 2500 a month. Pikers!

The USA was getting that much every day under Puppet Biden.

I wonder if Starmer can get away with just calling Farrage “A racist” then sit back and be self righteous and smug.

Is that going to work this time?

These are asylum seekers, they are the enemy and the UK government is setting up their citizens to be conquered. Wake the F up England!

What I was thinking. The numbers are much smaller than the deluge of Mexicans that enter the US each day.
