Sir Keir Starmer has been accused of being too scared of his Left-wing backbenchers to implement his own immigration crackdown.

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp has written to Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood warning her not to water down her own proposals, branding it "shocking" that the measures were not included in the legislative programme.

Mr Philp said: "I can only conclude that the Government is too scared of its left-wing backbenchers to implement its own plans. Time is now of the essence, and the rules urgently need to be changed."

He added: "Only very highly skilled migrants who have made a genuine contribution should be able to stay in this country. Low-skilled migrants will have to go home. The Conservative Party will support these changes as long as they are not watered down."

His intervention comes as new Home Office figures reveal that hundreds of thousands of migrants are rushing to secure British citizenship ahead of incoming crackdowns.

I never thought the Brits would commit suicide.
I never thought we would either.

Bolsheviks and their 21st century equivalent only understand force. They have to be neutered (figuratively, of course).

Yeah, Starmer has been just champing at the bit in his eagerness for a deportation crackdown.

He's a horse which will leap over the deportation fence if the left loosens the reins even slightly.

Which is why they’re calling it the “Boriswave”.
