OPINION - Labour's Keir Starmer has precisely nothing to offer on illegal migration solutions
The general rule of politics that you should never interrupt your opponent when he’s busy digging his own grave is one Sir Keir Starmer has taken to heart. Yesterday, his gag at Prime Minister’s Questions was: “Christmas is a time of peace on earth and good will to all. Has anyone told the Tory party?” Yes, yes. Quite so.
But if we could, just for a moment, drag ourselves away from the faction-fighting in the Conservative Party to contemplate Labour and Sir Keir, who would replace it, the scenario isn’t a happy one. On the crucial question that’s dominated politics for a whole two weeks, illegal migration, Sir Keir has precisely nothing to offer.
