Keir Starmer has opened another front in his war on Reform by blaming Brexit for the Channel migrant crisis - saying the UK is being assailed by 'Farage boats'.
The PM made the claim about the impact of cutting ties with the EU as he scrambled to claw back Nigel Farage's huge poll lead.
But he also went into retreat after brutal barbs in his Labour conference speech, stressing the Reform leader is not a racist.
The PM described Mr Farage as 'formidable' as he denied that the swipes put safety at risk.
With Labour facing meltdown in the polls, Sir Keir levelled a series of highly personal jibes at his rival - who responded by warning that the personal safety of Reform politicians had been put at risk.
Deputy PM David Lammy went even further by making an outlandish slur about Mr Farage having 'flirted with the Hitler Youth', a suggestion he was quickly forced to withdraw. The concerns raised by Reform were dismissed by Labour MPs as 'snowflake'.
Sir Keir signalled the aggressive new tactics on Sunday when he described Reform's policy of scrapping 'indefinite leave to remain' immigration status as 'racist'.
In the aftermath of a dramatic few days of politics:
In a round of interviews after his big speech, Sir Keir told GB News that Mr Farage had been 'wrong' during the Brexit referendum in 2016 to saying leaving the EU would make no difference to migration policy.
Under the Dublin Convention which applies in the EU, there is a provision to return asylum seekers to the first member state they arrived in - although critics argue it has never worked.
Sir Keir acknowledged the returns agreement with France had only seen small numbers deported, but said it had been important to prove the policy worked.

And I thought Starmer is the Prime Minister.
That doesn’t even make good nonsense.
Well then what kept the Third Reich out of Britain?
They lie as naturally as they breath, these Labor party operatives. The devil’s own. Nothing more evil than destroying your own Western Civilization, especially one as important as Great Britain historically, warts and all. What a sad, pathetic sociopath of a so-called man.
what a pathetic little liar - no doubt he was a bullied dweeb is grade school - not supporting that of course
They just “say stuff”. If it sounds sort of good, it’s sufficient. Doesn’t have to make sense.
Nice try Dipsh*t. Proves that Dems here are the same as Labor Libs over the pond.
1) By blaming Brexit in effect he's blaming the voters. Not a good political move.
2) Perhaps without intending to, he's reminding everyone that a primary motive for Brexit was the rapefugee scandal and the EU insisting that England keep accepting whatever new rapefugees any EU member (i.e. Germany) lets into Europe. In other words, he just reminded everyone that the Brits through their Brexit vote already voiced what they think about the rapefugees.
Loser!!
Everyone knows they’re Keir Boats full of invaders.
Classic Marxist strategy for sure. The British will probably start using the term.
Oh numpty. Such a tosser.
It sounds like Starmtrooper is under the misimpression that the boats are full of Brittons, fleeing the Island of Death.
Who’s been at the helm for these past few months?
Not Farage. So, is the Prime Minister declaring himself as
‘helpless/ powerless/ impotent in the terms of his office?
Not terribly inspiring for the Brits.
Starmer and his ilk are simply mocking us native Britons.
Everybody knows we voted for BRexit because we wanted to regain control of our borders and an end to the invasion by illegals.
The parties in power have all betrayed BRexit and the British people.
He must be smoking that weed from the Scottish Highlands.
So, he is saying he does NOT believe in democracy. BREXIT was voted on BY THE PEOPLE, then affirmed in Parliament.
We already know he doesn’t believe in free speech, as he has people arrested for facebook posts, tweets, and mean words.
To say he is worthless would still give him more worth than he deserves...
What about now the “Starmer Troopers” have been rounding folks up for social media posts nonstop.
He needs to have the navy (what’s left of it) out there stopping or sinking any boats trying to come to the UK, and this nonsense would stop.
PM Starman is mentally unstable
