Labour’s New Bill SLAMMED as ‘Insult to British People’ – Opens Borders, Lets Illegal Immigrants Become Citizens!

32views

Chris Philp, a prominent critic of Labour’s new Border Security Bill, has raised serious concerns about the potential consequences of the proposed changes. He warns that the bill could result in “dangerous young men being placed with teenage girls,” putting vulnerable individuals at risk.

The bill, introduced by Labour earlier this week, aims to repeal key parts of the 2023 Illegal Migration Act, which was put in place by the previous Conservative government.

These parts include rules that prevent most illegal migrants from ever gaining British citizenship and require asylum seekers to be treated as adults if they refuse to take age tests.

Labour has framed the bill as a tough, counter-terrorism-style measure to strengthen border security. However, Philp, who serves as the Shadow Home Secretary, strongly disagrees. He argues that the bill will make the UK a “soft touch” for illegal immigration, meaning the country will become an easy target for those trying to enter unlawfully.

He has criticized Labour’s leader, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, calling him “weak” on border protection and accusing him of failing to safeguard the country’s borders, children, and citizens.

Philp has vowed to fight fiercely against the bill when it comes to Parliament, describing it as a “craven capitulation” (a cowardly surrender) to illegal immigrants and human traffickers.

One of the main issues with the current system is that children are more likely to be granted refugee status in the UK. As a result, many migrants lie about their age, claiming to be younger than they are in order to increase their chances of being allowed to stay.

When migrants arrive in the UK by small boats, they are assessed by Home Office staff who judge their age based on their physical appearance and behavior.

However, classifying someone as an adult requires strong evidence that they are “significantly over 18 years of age.” This system has been criticized for being too lenient, especially compared to other European countries like France and Germany, where medical tests are used to determine the age of asylum seekers.

Labour has promised to keep some of the powers from the 2023 Act and has said it may introduce stricter measures if necessary. However, the decision to repeal parts of the Act has sparked outrage among migration hardliners, including former Home Secretary Suella Braverman and politician Rupert Lowe.

Braverman has accused Labour of “decriminalising illegal migration,” meaning the bill would make it easier for people to enter the UK illegally without facing serious consequences.

She argues that the bill removes important security measures that were put in place to protect the UK and calls it an “insult to the British people.” She believes that anyone who enters the country illegally should be detained, deported, and banned from ever returning.

Rupert Lowe has also criticized the UK’s asylum system, describing it as “as soft as a boiled maggot,” meaning it is too weak and ineffective.

He claims that thousands of male migrants are lying about their age, sexuality, and religion to exploit the system, and he accuses the Home Office of being too trusting.

He argues that the government often gives migrants “the benefit of the doubt,” meaning they are assumed to be telling the truth unless proven otherwise, which he believes is leading to widespread abuse of the system.

In response to these criticisms, a Home Office spokesperson has defended the new bill, stating that it introduces practical measures to strengthen border security and improve the immigration system.

They explained that the 2023 Illegal Migration Act has not been fully implemented and will not be under the current government. The spokesperson also highlighted the robust processes in place for verifying the age of asylum seekers, including the National Age Assessment Board and scientific methods introduced under the 2022 Nationality & Borders Act.
