If you are usually a Labour voter...

[HeadDeskHeadDesk]

What do you think of Shabana Mahmood's latest plans based on the Danish model, to curb illegal immigration and to stauch the flow of boat arrivals?

Did your constituency recently elect a Reform MP?

You want open borders but how many people would you let into the country? I’m genuinely interested?

Honest? A man who charged women by hypnotising them to make their breast bigger?

And when the rich leave the UK who do you suppose will have to foot taxes ?

As many as want to come Paul. This is a free world and people should be able to come and go as they wish, we don’t own this land.

I voted for them and support Mahmood's approach, but expect the whiney, lilly livered back benchers will chip away at it all. I'm incredibly disappointed in this government. Piss poor at politics and Starmer is a terrible leader.

I don't warm to Polanski at all.

He’s a great guy, cares about the environment and an avid feminist. He would make a great Prime Minister with Mothin Ali as Deputy.

I voted labour and agree with her proposals ( well most of them ).

I would never get behind something like that, thank you.

I agree with all this and am a Labour voter

@Swiftasthewind really as many who want to come jeez I hope you’re joking how does that even work in practice

It's a troll. Or a moron.

I also think it was a pointless reply.

See I think its brave of Starmer to take this issue on in this way and a sign he's strong not weak. Hampered by idealism in the back benches that we should be able to support everyone. They are seeing the strain on all public services from so much immigration and alot of asylum seekers granted asylum rely heavily on social support afterwards. The pressure on services now are immense from immigration adding to issues caused by cost of living. Deprived areas are seeing the worst of the impact.

I’m a Labour voter and as such the very last thing I want to see is a Reform government. I think her plans sound sensible, well thought-through and pragmatic in the context of where we are at, and I hope everyone who is on the left, centrist or “sensible” Tories get behind this unless they want Farage as PM.

I would like a sensible centre party, whether it’s Labour or not..

how nice for you.

And did they?

I agree entirely AND I’m gasp an immigrant myself (now dual citizen)

I think they did actually, in the ward where the election was

Where was it? There were 7 local by-elections last Thursday, two of the seats were Labour held. The Greens gained one from Labour. Labour held the other. Reform gained two seats from the Tories.

I have resigned my labour party membership over this disgusting and disgraceful policy. They no longer represent my humanitarian values. I have voted Labour my whole life and am now politically homeless. 51 years old.

I know how you feel. I am in Wales and supporting Plaid Cymru now. Not sure what I will vote in Westminster elections, though. Whoever will keep Reform out, probably.
