Dear Milady Renoir,
In a speech to INTERPOL last week, as we report in our regular calendar of
racism and resistance

the prime minister announced that he is doubling the funding of the Border
Security Command (BSC) to £150m and giving it counter-terrorism powers to
deal with what he described as the national security

threat of cross-Channel people smugglers.
This linking of Channel crossings with national security risks the further
mainstreaming of hard-right messages of hate. In any event, border
crackdowns in the UK and Europe, as Starmer knows or ought to know, simply
make journeys more costly and more lethal as smugglers increase prices in
line with the increased risks, cram in more

passengers and use more perilous routes. We know the BSC, like all its
precursors, won’t stop smuggling, which is a response to demand

As the Ukraine and Hong Kong schemes demonstrated

the only response to smuggling which saves lives is legal routes, which are
unavailable

to most. The only beneficiaries of border crackdowns are the companies
selling security equipment.
When politicians treat migration as a threat, anti-migrant racism is
legitimised. Linking the threat to national security legitimises
anti-Muslim racism. August’s orchestrated far-right racist violence against
mosques and asylum hotels was the product of a ramped-up narrative of fear
and threat, the previous government’s posturing response to a ‘crisis’ of
its own making: the logjam it created by its freeze on the processing of
‘small boat’ asylum claims. Starmer’s government has undone the freeze and
is slowly dealing with the logjam, but its approach to small-boat migrants
now risks stoking the racism behind the riots. In choosing the language and
tools of national security, Starmer feeds the pernicious narrative that
links asylum seekers with crime and terrorism, and in treating migrants as
a threat, he gives comfort to the far-right promoters of the ‘great
replacement theory’.
When mobility cannot be stopped at the border, state-instigated age
assessment serves as one form of hostile internal bordering used on young
unaccompanied migrants to control access to services, and in some cases to
prosecute
