Starmer Warns Mass Migration Could Turn Britain into “Island of Strangers”

  • UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced a new immigration policy overhaul on Monday aiming to reduce legal migration and control the system.
  • The announcement followed Reform UK's local election victories and growing public concern over record net migration reaching 728,000 by June 2024.
  • Starmer's plan includes ending the social care visa, raising English language requirements, and cracking down on people smuggling amid mixed reactions from politicians.
  • Starmer warned the UK risks becoming an 'island of strangers' without fair immigration rules, a phrase critics linked to Enoch Powell's 1968 'Rivers of Blood' speech.
  • The policy shift sparked debate about social cohesion and migration management, while Reform UK's gains suggest immigration remains a key political issue.
