Labour’s immigration civil war intensified on Tuesday as Sir Sadiq Khan refused to back Keir Starmer’s “island of strangers” warning.
The Prime Minister admitted the UK is facing a crisis because integration has failed.
Jake Richards, one of the leading MPs in the Red Wall group of MPs, claimed the PM was “absolutely right”, warning “millions of people across the country have similar concerns.”
But some backbench MPs slammed the “island of strangers” comment, claiming it echoed Enoch Powell’s “rivers of blood” speech.
Sarah Owen, the Labour chair of the women and equalities committee, who is of Malaysian-Chinese heritage, said: “Chasing the tail of the right risks taking our country down a very dark path.”
And speaking to LBC, Sir Sadiq Khan said he would not have used the phrase "island of strangers".
The Mayor of London said: "The sort of language I use is different to the language used by others. That's not the sort of words I would use."
He added that he thought Sir Keir Starmer was referring to "promises made by Brexiteers" and recent high levels of migration, and not "that contribution we make to this multicultural capital city and country."
