PM accuses Tories of running ‘experiment in open borders’
Sir Keir Starmer has accused the last government of a “one nation experiment in open borders”.
In a press conference in Downing Street, the prime minister accused the Conservatives of a “different order of failure” that happened “by design not accident”.
Starmer said: “Time and again the Conservative Party promised they would get the numbers down.
Time and again they failed, and now the chorus of excuses has begun.” Report by Covellm.
