Tackle immigration crisis; it’s killing UK, Trump tells PM Burnham
U.S. President Donald Trump has urged UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham to confront immigration crisis in the country.
He noted that it was killing the country, warning that immigrants from Africa and other parts of the world were invading Europe.
Mr Trump spoke at the White House on Wednesday.
“Immigration is killing your country,” Mr. Trump said, adding, “He’s (Mr. Burnham) going to have to mention it because it’s killing your country.”
The American president berated former UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for doing little to check immigration.
“I know Starmer did very little about it, and they’re coming from all over the world. They’re coming from Africa, they’re coming from South America, they’re coming from different parts of Asia, and they’re invading Europe,” Mr. Trump said.
According to the U.S. president, the UK has two problems.
He noted that the first was a huge immigration problem with people coming from all over the world and camping out in the country and the second an energy problem.
