The Conservatives have been slammed for releasing an “abhorrent” migrant boat advert on World Refugee Day.
The party released a video on X, which shows a small boat arriving with migrants on it, through the view of a pair of binoculars.
People are seen on the beach rolling out a red carpet, with the word “welcome” written in the sand.
The final scene has text which says: “Labour’s approach to illegal immigration.”
The post on X is captioned: “Don’t wake up to this on 5th July.”
Social media users have responded to the video in disgust. One user labelled it “abhorrent”, while another said: “Grubby ad from a grubby campaign for a grubby government.”
