+[yahoo.com](https://ch.search.yahoo.com/)<br>Let's presume Sir Keir Starmer wishes to win the next election. Let's likewise assume he has no desire to be changed as Prime Minister in the next year or two by Wes Streeting or Angela Rayner or anybody else.<br>
+<br>He's a political leader, after all, and politicians delight in power - Starmer more than most, I would think. I likewise recommend that he's at least averagely smart, and should be able to weigh up the opportunities of any policy being successful.<br>
+<br>After the battles, compromises and embarrassments associated with accomplishing high workplace, Starmer has no intent of throwing everything away. Why, then, does he show every indication of doing so?<br>
+<br>On the single problem that may matter most to a majority of citizens, he is speeding towards particular catastrophe, while rejecting himself any possibility of an escape route. I imply the boats encountering the Channel.<br>
+<br>Numbers of migrants doing the 21-mile journey are up by 42 percent on the same duration last year. An analysis by The Times, using similar modelling as Border Force, [predicts](https://seasiderealestate.al) that 50,000 people will cross the Channel in small boats in 2025. That would be a yearly record - and a stonking debacle for Sir Keir.<br>
+<br>Peering into his mind, I reckon there are two main possible explanations for his behaviour. One is that he is deluding himself. He truly believes numbers will come down when the measures he has taken start to work.<br>
+<br>If Starmer still thinks that his policies - tossing hundreds of [millions](https://akarat.ly) at the French authorities, improving intelligence and using boosted police powers - will decrease the numbers, that actually is the triumph of hope over experience. The other possibility is that he is currently beginning dimly to [realise](https://skroyalgroup.com) that his stratagems will not bear much, if any, fruit. So he and the Government have actually chosen to pull the wool over our eyes. A deadly approach.<br>
+<br>There have actually been two such examples in recent days. Having said in an online post on Monday that he felt 'mad' about the numbers crossing the [Channel](https://www.roomsandhouses.nl) (how does he believe the rest of us feel !?) the PM made a slippery claim.<br>
+<br>Sir Keir Starmer now has nothing formidable in his locker, Stephen Glover composes<br>
+<br>Only 2,240 small-boat migrants were sent out home in the 12 months to March, 3 per cent less than in the previous year<br>
+<br>He boasted that 'almost 30,000 people' had actually been gotten rid of from the UK by this Government. Sounds good. But in truth this figure refers to all kinds of migrants who have no right to be in our country. Only 2,240 [small-boat migrants](https://www.safeproperties.com.tr) were sent home in the 12 months to March, 3 percent fewer than in the previous year.<br>
+<br>A lie? Good God no! We mustn't implicate Labour prime ministers, far less Sir Keir [Starmer](https://oyomandcompany.com) KCB, PC, KC, MP, of informing purposeful fibs. Shall we opt for a statistical sleight of hand?<br>
+<br>The other circumstances of the Government not being completely directly was the Office's claim earlier this week that there have been more migrants this year due to the fact that of pleasant weather. These are called 'red days', when the sea is calm.<br>
+<br>But an analysis by my colleague David Barrett in yesterday's Mail shows that in temperate May in 2015 there were 21 'red days' but just 2,765 arrivals, about 1,000 less than last month. In gentle June 2024 there were 20 'red days', though just 3,007 migrants were taped crossing the Channel.<br>
+<br>The most possible explanation is that last May and June the Government's plan to send illegal migrants to Rwanda had actually finally cleared persistent judicial blockage. Some, a minimum of, were hindered from crossing the Channel for worry of being packed off to the main African nation.<br>
+<br>The Rwanda plan was far from ideal - it was expensive, and responsible to legal difficulty due to the fact that the nation has an authoritarian government - however at least it had some prospect of preventing migrants. The incoming Labour Government got rid of its only possible ways of suppressing the boats.<br>
+<br>Great for Tory leader Kemi Badenoch, who in a speech tomorrow will carry out to resurrect a plan noticeably comparable to the Rwandan one.<br>
+<br>Starmer now has absolutely nothing powerful in his locker. Literally absolutely nothing. He can give additional millions to the French government however it won't make much, if any, distinction. French authorities will still loll around on beaches, thinking of the sand castles they made as kids, as they watch [migrant boats](https://propcart.co.ke) setting off for Dover.<br>
+<br>The truth is that the French will never strain themselves because every migrant who leaves their coasts is one less  for them to stress over. It is naive to envision that they are ever going to be zealous on our behalf.<br>
+<br>STEPHEN GLOVER: Keir Starmer is a soft man who can not understand the true evil Britain is dealing with<br>
+<br>Nor will Sir Keir's idea of improving intelligence and law enforcement be definitive. When it comes to Labour's reported objective to tinker with Article 8 of the Human Rights Act so regarding prevent fake asylum claims, that is welcome, but even if it ends up being law it is unlikely to have much result on overall numbers.<br>
+<br>Are the PM and Home Secretary Yvette Cooper starting to worry as they realise they don't have a single policy likely to fulfil their pledge of 'smashing the gangs'? If they aren't desperate, they jolly well must be.<br>
+<br>Three weeks ago, Sir Keir was humiliated after he had praised talks over Rwanda-style 'return hubs' only minutes before his Albanian counterpart, standing a couple of feet away, dismissed any cooperation.<br>
+<br>Maybe the Government will convince the Kosovans or the North Macedonians to establish some sort of plan. But if it does, it will take months, if not years, and people will wonder why Sir Keir cancelled an arrangement that he is at least partly attempting to restore.<br>
+<br>I've no specific wish to [throw Starmer](https://tehranoffers.com) a [lifeline](https://ezestate.net) however, as I've recommended before, there's one possible path out of the hole he has dug for himself - though it would take huge determination and nerve for him to take it.<br>
+<br>There are many unoccupied British [islands](https://riserealbali.com) off our coast and more afield. Pick one of them. Create a camp comparable to those on the Isle of Man that housed alien internees during the War. Build numerous huts - instead of setting up less tough camping tents, as ex-Reform MP Rupert Lowe has proposed.<br>
+<br>Recruit doctors and officials to examine claims faster than happens at present - and then return most migrants to where they originated from. The cost of setting up such a camp would be a portion of the ₤ 4.3 billion invested last year on housing migrants and asylum hunters.<br>
+<br>Can anyone tell me why not? Few migrants would expensive kicking their heels for months in a camp, nevertheless humane, so it would be a wonderful deterrent. Cross the Channel, and you will be our visitor - on a potentially windy island instead of in a four-star hotel.<br>
+<br>Granted, in order to ward off vexatious legal obstacles we 'd probably have to derogate from the European Court of Human Rights, which would be a step too far for our mindful Prime Minister.<br>
+<br>But he doesn't have a better idea. In truth, he hasn't got any concepts at all that are accountable to stem the growing varieties of people streaming throughout the English Channel.<br>
+<br>Things can only worsen - and as they do Labour will sink ever lower in public esteem. Does Sir Keir Starmer actually want to be the signatory of his own political death warrant?<br>
