Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

From Sen. @padilla.senate.gov's office: Padilla “is currently in Los Angeles exercising his duty to perform Congressional oversight of the federal government’s operations … He tried to ask the Secretary a question, and was forcibly removed by federal agents, forced to the ground and handcuffed.”

Yesterday, I met with a 12 year old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years. ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when he’ll see them again. A 6th grader.

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know. This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful. Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now.

Today, the Government launches plans to fast-track driverless vehicle trials in the UK. One of the companies involved says London presents a big challenge: “It has seven times more jaywalkers than San Francisco.” Except… it doesn't. 🧵

This is awful, England … but who turns up to support their team and then boos them off the pitch?

If the hard and far right need to blame anyone for “two-tier” policing, they need only look to themselves and the invidious position in which they’ve put officers. My latest, on Liverpool open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Is Liz Truss right to demand a cut in the minimum wage? With me in the studio to discuss this are an £91,000 a year Tory MP, a £250,000 a year rightwing journalist and a £4,000,000 a year chief executive.

Tried Uber Eats this evening. 45 mins later, thought I’d better check what’s going on … to find a message to say the courier can’t complete the order and I’ll be refunded within 10 working days. Oh, and do you want to re-order? No, Uber Eats. I do very much not want to re-fucking order.
