Next to speak at Labour's Welsh campaign launch is the shadow foreign secretary, David Lammy.
He tells the gathered activists: "The first time I ever left the inner-city constituency of Tottenham, I was nine years old, and it was Wales that I came to.
"I can't convey how wonderful it is to be here again with Keir Starmer and Vaughan Gething - it means a lot."
Mr Lammy says Britain and the world face the same challenges, visible through "organised crime gangs that exploit the vulnerable" in Wales, across the UK, and across Europe.
"The numbers of people crossing the Channel on small boats has surged under the Tories, while tens of thousands remain in asylum hotels, permanently in limbo with no prospect of removal due to the government's failed illegal migration bill."
The shadow foreign secretary explains that the level of illegal migrations "takes more than £3bn off our overseas aid budget, which would stop them coming in the first place".
He describes the Rwanda scheme as a "shameless gimmick" - greeted by applause from the audience.
"This will never, ever deter organised crime," he declares, and makes the case that only Sir Keir Starmer and the shadow home secretary, Yvette Cooper, "have a plan to smash the gangs and prosecute serious organised crime".
