Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the importance of learning from Italy, noting that the country’s asylum processing scheme has led to a remarkable 62% decline in migrant arrivals.
During a press conference, Starmer expressed admiration for Giorgia Meloni’s administration, highlighting that preventing migration at the source is much more effective than dealing with arrivals.
The Prime Minister pointed out that the focus should not only be on reducing boat crossings but also on addressing the root causes of migration to improve the situation.
Starmer acknowledges the need to combat human smuggling but mentions that the government has yet to establish safe routes for asylum-seekers wishing to enter Britain.
