Labour's asylum plan is straight from the Trump playbook – it'll backfire on them
It’s time to stand up for the values of compassion, humanity and basic fairness

When Keir Starmer ran to be Labour leader in 2020, he pledged to “defend migrants’ rights” and to have “an immigration system based on compassion and dignity”.
How far he has fallen: not just in the polls but morally too.

Genocide can take many forms. Leaving people to slowly die from exposure to flooding and cold, denied adequate food to sustain body heat, is just another way for Israel to kill more Palestinians.

Removing asylum support. Seizing belongings. Deporting entire families, including children.
Labour are not just paving the path to a Reform government. Reform may as well already be in power.
This government has no moral compass — and it should be ashamed of its inhumanity.
