Did they support those extra measures to actually smash the gangs? No, they went into the lobby with this lot in their new coalition to vote against them.“And let’s be clear what a vote for his party means. It means a vote to charge for the NHS, it means a pro-Putin foreign policy and a vote against workers’ rights.“Now we hear he’s recruited Liz Truss as his new top adviser as he was cheering on the mini-Budget.”🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage says many boat migrants come from "alien cultures" and asks if Starmer's "Smash the Gangs" slogan is just thatStarmer: "Let's be clear what a vote for his party means: charge for the NHS, pro-Putin foreign policy, and a vote against workers' rights" #PMQspic.twitter.com/OwmnPtQnHU— Politics UK (@PolitlcsUK) April 30, 2025Related...Tory Frontbencher Accuses Trump And Farage Of 'Putin Apologism'Farage Slammed Over 1 'Wildly Inaccurate' Claim About Children's HealthNigel Farage Dubbed 'A Con Artist' For Suggesting Climate Change May Not Be Man-Made
