Keir Starmer is facing another major challenge to his authority as angry Labour MPs vowed to force changes to new hardline migration measures that would bring an escalation in the deportations of children and families.
The policies – which include the possibility of confiscating assets from asylum seekers to contribute to costs – have caused significant divisions inside the party, with some MPs accusing their colleagues of not taking seriously public anger about illegal migration and asylum.
The Conservatives have said they could support the government to pass the tough new laws in the event of a major Labour rebellion.
The home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has outlined a number of radical measures, including how the government will attempt to change the way the European convention on human rights (ECHR) is interpreted by UK judges in an attempt to stop asylum seekers using their rights to a family life to avoid deportation.
Policies include consulting on enforcing the removal of families, including children, who have been refused the right to settle in the UK and have refused payments encouraging them to leave.

I think it’s BS. Labour is sending this out just to help sell the lie that Starmer actually wants to reverse the parties open border policy.
Mainly, he’s hoping to avoid being turfed. Labour is looking at forcing him out of 10 Downing because he is dragging the party down. They don’t necessarily disagree with open borders, but fear he is the wrong messenger, could lead the Labour party to political extinction.
Since here was elected on a pro immigration platform his supporters should be upset.
Of course, its all for show.
His replacement is a woman that favors even more illegals support.
Pence of Schiff Keir Stasi can’t be removed until he allows a vote.
I guess “our democracy” is better than the wankers’ in this case.
