Fly them out

IT is one thing rounding up illegal migrants and preparing to fly them to Rwanda, another to get planes off the ground.

But those who smugly predicted the deterrent scheme would never happen ought to prepare to be proved wrong.

Even as the first deportation candidates were seized, the Left’s lawyers will have been limbering up to block their exit.

We will find out soon if Rishi Sunak’s law is as watertight as he says.

But it is notable how rattled the plan’s critics are, by action finally being taken and by hearing migrants admit they bolted to Dublin, deterred by it already.

The Left’s moralising and political games have been a smokescreen for their fear it will work and vindicate the PM.

Especially since they foolishly committed to scrapping it, even if it works, with NO remotely credible alternative.

Yesterday’s dawn raids will have caused jitters among migrants in Northern France and those already here.

Fly the first deportees out and this deterrent, we are convinced, will start to work.

Labour lies

WHY does a Labour Party way ahead in the polls lie so routinely? Is it so bereft of ideas and so lacking in confidence?

There is political spin . . . and there is simple falsehood. When Keir Starmer claims the Tories plan to end National Insurance, leaving a £46billion black hole and halving the state pension, he crosses that line.

There is no such plan. It is a long-term aim, and a welcome one since NI is ­nothing but an unfair second tax on workers’ pay. Pensions would not be cut, just funded instead from general tax.

And Rishi Sunak says he would do it only if finances ever allowed — exactly the same caveat Labour applies to its own fanciful spending pledges.

Starmer wants voters to believe his party has more integrity than the Tories.

From his various recent outings there are worrying signs that too is very far from the truth.

Terror twits

IS anything more ridiculous than rich brats at elite US universities dressing up as Gazans and pretending to be oppressed?

These cosseted dolts don Palestine scarves and “liberate” college buildings from imaginary foes while screaming chilling anti-Semitic slogans they learned online and barely understand.

Like Nazis, they abuse and assault Jews, yet consider themselves the good guys.

They even fantasise that cops want them to “starve”. They genuinely see themselves in a warzone, not some manicured Ivy League campus. These are supposedly America’s finest young minds.

Student radicals have always been naïve and idiotic. But today’s terror-loving TikTok Trots win the all-time prize.
