Did he actually say asylum seekers or people smugglers? If he said the former I don't agree with his comment, and will remove my post but if it's the latter I will keep my post up.in this case asylum seekers, and make them the problem
This is really worrying. After the Elphicke thing and now this. Labour are going down the same bigoted, xenophobic route as the Tories. Find a scapegoat, in this case asylum seekers, and make them the problem you have to "fix" instead of actually vowing to fix the real problems this country has. Man how did we become such a backwards country?
He is targeting the smugglers not the asylum seekers / migrants themselves. I’ll be polite and say that I think you’ve misread (as I believe you are better than your comment)This is really worrying.

I really cannot fathom how you have come up with this post based on Starmer's comment.This is really worrying. After the Elphicke thing and now this.

Big difference in chastising people smugglers and asylum seekers.This is really worrying. After the Elphicke thing and now this. Labour are going down the same bigoted, xenophobic route as the Tories.

Fair point, in this case I didn't look into it enough and I just reacted because I saw on twitter it said Starmer was giving a speech on "small boats" Ishould have looked into it further.He is targeting the smugglers not the asylum seekers / migrants themselves. I’ll be polite and say that I think you’ve misread (as I believe you are better than your comment)
He's after people smugglers who cause misery and possible deaths of vulnerable peopleDid he actually say asylum seekers or people smugglers? If he said the former I don't agree with his comment, and will remove my post but if it's the latter I will keep my post up.
They’re not attacking the asylum seekers are they, they’re targeting the people smugglersThis is really worrying. After the Elphicke thing and now this.

Can you just clarify. Has Starmer actually said that people smugglers are no better than terrorists?Not really red, obviously I know that sadly many people have died in the crossings and that makes the traffickers disgusting, merciless murdering, bastids exploiting the weak and vulnerable,
BUT to say they are as bad as, or even worse than terrorists is in my mind over egging the pudding. He went for the shock factor rather than thinking it through. Bet he wishes he could take it back.
If not, he’s a tosser
