NEW UK PRIME MINISTER, KEIR STARMER, CANCELS RWANDA DEPORTATION PLAN

On his first day in office, newly elected UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has put an end to the Conservative’s contentious plan to deport illegal migrants to Rwanda.

Starmer faces pressure to address the UK’s migration challenges, especially regarding asylum seekers arriving via small boats from France.

On his inaugural day as Prime Minister, Keir Starmer has acted decisively to terminate the Conservative government’s controversial plan to deport migrants arriving illegally in the UK to Rwanda.

The announcement was reported by the Telegraph, citing sources from the Labour Party.

Starmer had previously vowed to eliminate the policy, which had sparked widespread debate and criticism.

However, with migration being a pivotal issue in electoral politics, the new Prime Minister faces significant pressure to find alternative solutions for managing the influx of asylum seekers arriving across the English Channel.The move signifies a dramatic policy shift and raises questions about the future of the UK’s broader migration strategy, as tens of thousands of people continue to make the perilous journey from France to British shores in small boats.

    VIDEO FOOTAGE SHOWS MAN WHO TRIED TO ASSASSINATE TRUMP

    VIDEO FOOTAGE SHOWS ARREST OF MAN WHO TRIED TO ASSASSINATE TRUMP Body cam footage of Ryan Wesley Routh’s arrest has surfaced following his alleged attempt on former President Donald Trump’s life. The video, released by Martin County Sheriff’s deputies, shows the dramatic moments after Routh was pulled over on a Florida highway on Sunday. In the footage, deputies are seen shouting orders at Routh, who is shown walking backwards with his shirt raised above his head to demonstrate that he had no concealed weapons. Routh, allegedly involved in an assassination attempt on Trump while he was playing golf in West Palm Beach, surrendered calmly and was handcuffed by several deputies holding rifles. The arrest confirms earlier remarks made by Martin County Sheriff William Snyder, who described Routh’s behaviour as “perplexing” during the stop. In an interview with CNN, Sheriff Snyder noted, “His facial affect was so flat. His demeanour was relaxed. I honestly thought it looked like somebody that just left the church picnic and was on his way home.” Routh became the prime suspect after Secret Service agents noticed an AK-style rifle in shrubbery about 400 yards from Trump’s golf course. An agent fired into the area after spotting the weapon, prompting Routh to abandon the rifle and flee in a nearby SUV. He allegedly left behind two backpacks, a scope, and a GoPro camera at the scene. Following an alert from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Department, the Martin County Sheriff’s office dedicated all available resources to locating Routh. He was eventually apprehended and will remain in custody until his arraignment on September 30. Routh faces charges of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number, with additional charges expected.
