Oh great we get to hear from a Labour mp about all the deportations Labour is doing.
In response to three people’s death this is what we get.
Give me strength. They even asked if ID cards would stop drownings??

They would upset the Daily Fail, and almost certainly lose their front-bench post, but it is a truth that needs to be heard. Migration is not a bad thing.
God has nothing to do with labours immigration policy. It’s moral starvation and a love for the RW. Win reform votes. Love by ‘Mail. Murdoch approval.

In one speech Starmer lied. While blahing on about immigration he glossed over Iraq 2 etc causing massive displacement. He wagged his finger saying first duty of the state is protecting borders. He needs to re-read Burke. It's protecting the people.
Like Blair. Bent lawyer.
But I don’t think this is a purely British problem. Americans also have no idea how hard it is to get a visa to US. Pretty sure this is a citizens all over problem.
What about ID for trans people or trans asylum seekers/refugees?
The hand of Blair is behind all this.
Blair fucked up immigration and caused displacement with Iraq 2, and Labour were a shit opposition later.
Blair is a massive transphobe.
He's trying to get his people in as MP's.
The problem is the current Labour cabinet's neoliberal bigoted worldview much like Tories are addicted to Thatcherism like they're on heroin and hating the rest of Europe.
I don’t believe the Labour cabinet are as bigoted or as neoliberal as you suggest. For me, they just aren’t doing enough/ good enough to challenge the bigoted and neoliberal views in the media. I hope they can.
The truth is Labour’s “smash the gangs” policy is pathetic & won’t save them from Reform. Only humanity beats the human-hating right. #r4today
That doesn't make it a good policy in the round (the lack of safe and legal routes makes the financial opportunity too tempting for replacement people smugglers).
I would apologise to her, but given she showed no concern for “these people” -
refugees taking dangerous journeys because the uk is a safe place that cannot be reached safely,
& didn’t even bother to say anything about the 3 who died, fuck her. #r4today
She unseated Brendan Clarke-Smith (which I wouldn't complain about).
She's also married to brexiter former Labour MP for Bassetlaw John Mann (now in the HoL for his services to Brexit).
I'm not impressed by Bassetlaw voters' choice of MPs...

Good people shine like the morning sun.
Labour said it would reinstate these safe ways in, but haven’t.
Meanwhile more terrified people die in flimsy plastic inflatables because they are desperately fleeing trauma.
Where is our humanity?
Also, as far as easy goes, it’s much “easier” in Italy & Greece, both have ID cards.
& finally IMMIGRANTS HABE ID CARDS IN THE UK ALREADY & are required to show them to employers. Ffs.
Or we could just call them people that need help.
This was an interesting read: https://foreignpolicy.com/2024/03/02/british-politics-history-thatcher-uk-press-conservative-newspapers/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
Every person who is in the UK via regular immigration gets a BRP, which is an ID card.
Those seeking asylum here don't get ID cards until their claim has been processed and is successful.
It is all unnecessarily complicated.
Could become another lever to aid intro of ID cards.
It’s their “fix” for nearly everything.
They even tried using the Hillsborough tragedy to promote it. 😞
In the UK that has never existed.

Everybody in Spain is required to carry a photographic ID. including visitors.
