Conservative fringe meeting on immigration discussing how to persuade women to "breed for Britain" in order to "grow more" social care workers, one day after Kemi Badenoch's comments about "excessive" maternity pay.

I assume the woman is Imogen Sinclair from the New Social Covenant Unit, an outfit set up by Miriam Kates and Danny Kruger, so it's the current birth rate in the UK she's not happy about. She wants British women to have more babies. https://www.newsocialcovenant.co.uk/about/
We have experienced a growing proportion of non workers (retired) in the last 50 or so years, so is there any well-evidenced consensus on what level of immigration is absolutely necessary to maintain living standards?
A v high % of all the money made in UK is now from rents, stock market dealing, banking, property dealing etc. . These activities mostly escape tax. Which leaves relatively low earning workers to carry the burden.
I'd love to know how they're going to enforce this. Also, Badenoch is so fucking thick. Like, she wants more British babies to be born but also wants to take away incentives for working mothers.
So, their dislike of immigration isn't about there not being room for more people in the UK (pressure on housing, services etc), it's about not liking foreigners.
‘We need... the New Middle Ages.... All content of Modernity is Satanism.... Modernity is absolutely wrong—science, values, philosophy, art, society,... understanding of Being, time and space. All is dead... So it should end.’
Previously, they’d either keep these abominable thoughts to themselves, or have them spurned by more decent and sensible members of their circle. Nowadays they’re celebrated as pioneering heroes.
Makes you wonder if any of these politicians have actually had to care for anyone, ever.
Hard to decide which policy is the most egregiously immoral: breed carers for Britain on inadequate parental support, or demand foreign care workers abandon their families to work here.
We wouldn’t have a problem if Cameron hadn’t pushed a Brexit vote on us.
These Tory loonies are getting worse as every day passes! They just treat people like commodities, they make me shudder, scary thoughts in their heads!
I'm sure there will be plenty of male Tory MPs and ex-MPs who will fall over themselves to do their bit for Britain, several times if necessary. Presumably those in the pic have already been booked?
They are revolting, WTF is going on with these stepford wives nutters. I’m in my 60s, I honestly am shocked at this narrative. Come on you youngsters, you need to take these wankers on!
This is abhorrent. Women are not mere chattels to do with as men think fit. The Conservatives in the UK and Republicans in the US need to be out of power for generations to come. Not a gram of humanity between them.
Unless they're going to do away with the Child Labour laws, these 'bred for Britain' kids won't be eligible to work for 16/17 years, so we'd need immigrants to pick up the slack in the meantime.
I'm probably excluded for the crimes of (a) holding an #EU passport, (b) continuing to say #BrexitHasFailed & (c) my son having a "foreign born" Dad (a Brit born abroad) 😉
I mean, this is obviously hideous language and ideology. But I also bet their plans don’t involve any actual support for the families. So it’s: “throw away anything about modern lives because we Tories want you to have WAY more kids so we in 20 years can stop so many foreigners coming here”. Ugh.
Tories discussing how to persuade women to “breed for Britain” in order to “grow more” social care workers?
So that is how they see the British public. Breeding stock for cheap labour. It’s despicable that they even think it, but to assume it’s ok to say it out loud? How much lower can they get?
Isn't that how they've always seen us? Look at the schools and how they condition us. Bells that tell you when to eat! No talking! It's still built on a Victorian model to get people used to factory conditions.
"Oh. And it will take about two decades before this wave of genetically superior British Care Support Stormtroopers will enter the employment market, so until then we should just sit around and whistle, waiting for them to want to wipe our arses when we're old and incontinent."
Half of me wants to join you in laughing at these people, but this is such a massive red flag to be hearing at the conference of one of the two main parties in the UK. Straight out of 1930s Germany.
Laughing at them is undoubtedly a good thing, but I'm always reminded of the late, great Peter Cook's comment on "those wonderful Berlin cabarets which did so much to stop the rise of Hitler and prevent the outbreak of the Second World War".
Ah yes, social care workers, the job that's so well paid and generously managed that most social care businesses have permanent "We're hiring" signs on their offices because staff turnover is so high.
It’s both. These politicians keep pushing papers on low skilled immigration and how we should only invite those on high salaries. So who do they want to do the low paid work? British women breeding- poor British women who they don’t want to go to university. Not their kids of course
1stly we need a lot of people now. Women are having kids now that won't be able 2b carers for a long time. There are a lot of jobs Brits won't do. 2nd there is a brain drain as there is less opportunity here now so we do need to encourage bright sparks to come here which we're doing a bad job at.
I think maybe both in a handwavey this-will-fix-it-in-some-tbc-way but more specifically employees because the subtext is 'so we don't have to give the jobs to foreigners'

Do the Tories plan on giving medals?
'According to a decree signed this week by President Vladimir Putin, the title will be awarded to those who "birth and raise" 10 Russian citizens.'

Terrible.
From the article.
'Russia’s unprovoked onslaught in Ukraine since Feb. 24 may have accelerated these trends.'

The manifesto of Danny Kruger's Christo-fascist nazis.
Thankfully these nutters are out power for now, but this is extremely worrying.

Can I claim a bounty now?
Mine has the same problem.
Bloody forriners, come here steal our jobs, and our wives.
🙃
Just a small suggestion...

But not if you are a teenager!
And not if you are a single woman!
And you better be married!
And no LGBT!
And no kids that you can't pay for yourself!

Just pot up a batch of seedlings, water regularly and job’s a good’un!
Right. Gotcha.
....that's how it works, isn't it?
