Starmer: Stop the Boats plan is ‘like Groundhog Day’
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has said Rishi Sunak promising measures to tackle small-boat crossings is "like Groundhog Day".
He told reporters in Somerset that the government has made “the announcement of a policy that doesn't work and then the reannouncement of the same policy.” The prime minister gave a press conference in Dover on Monday morning to update on government plans for tackling small boats crossing the English Channel illegally.

The government is planning a range of measures designed to restrict immigration to the UK, which will likely further reduce net migration - but without further.. Sky News
The UK government is rolling out stricter visa rules to curb mass immigration and prioritize domestic hiring. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called mass immigration a “failed experiment” and pledged to regain control over Britain’s borders. New reforms will halt overseas care worker recruitment, raise English language requirements for dependents, and restrict skilled visas to graduate-level jobs. While critical sectors like healthcare and AI will see fast-tracked entries, settlement will now require 10 years of residence. The Labour-led move marks a dramatic shift in the UK’s migration policy landscape.
