Britain’s left-wing government is on the attack against poll-leading Nigel Farage and his Reform UK party, decrying his proposed crackdown on migrants in Britain as racist, while also announcing its own very similar crackdown in a bid to win voters back, prompting criticism. Indeed, in a feat of spectacular timing, the Labour leadership launched a massive attack on Nigel Farage, his policies, and possibly his voters too for alleged racism for also proposing a crackdown in migrant arrivals which would, as promised, lead to arrivals having to leave if they didn’t meet similar tests. Dan Hodges, a Labour insider malcontent said that “having the Prime Minister blast an opponent’s policy as racist on Sunday, then getting the Home Secretary to announce the same policy on Monday” is “bonkers” and mad. Reform’s Zia Yusuf also leant into the absurdity of the situation, ironically responding to Labour’s new-found interest in border control as “wow, properly racist”. Earlier, he had responded to Labour’s initial attack against his party’s policies: “Labour’s message to the country is clear: pay hundreds of billions for foreign nationals to live off the state forever, or Labour will call you racist.”
