Keir Starmer promised to ’smash’ the criminal gangs bringing people to the United Kingdom via small boats, but so far the only thing to have been smashed are our beautiful English shorelines. Smashed as tens of thousands of migrants continue to make landfall each year and are then given leave to remain in this country, seemingly indefinitely, even if their asylum applications are rejected.
Even worse, many of those arriving are not even from the poor third world masses but instead come from middle income and even high income countries such as, respectively, Vietnam or Kuwait. Migrants are arriving from safe countries, countries which are no longer at war, and countries with economics growing significantly faster than Britain’s. Yet, and seemingly without a single shred of acknowledgement from Keir Starmer’s administration, the migrants continue to arrive on our shores in search of a mythical “better life.” A life which the native British are obligated to give every migrant from every corner of the world even to our own detriment.

I remember when the war in Ukraine started and streams of women and children left that unfortunate country and poured into Poland, Belarus, Russia, and other neighboring states. These women were carrying all they could in just a few suitcases and hauling their children on and off of trains in the hope of reaching safety while behind them their husbands defended a besieged nation. A Center For Immigration Studies article revealed that upwards of 70% of Ukrainian refugees are female while the significant remainder who are not are males under the age of 16.
