Persecution.

Children who died because the policy is to expose them to the risk of dying, as a warning to others

Mannen är samtidens politiska subjekt. Kvinnors frågor & röster hörs nästan inte alls. I Sverige anser tex de flesta kvinnor att vården är den viktigaste frågan.

IN NEW ISSUE: Must refugees be grateful to their asylum state? @rebeccabuxton.bsky.social & Matthew J. Gibney argue that when refugees' full experience is considered, resentment might be a more apt response: https://buff.ly/4k8lLv0 @polstudiesassoc.bsky.social @uoypolitics.bsky.social #ethics

I have a legitimate concern that everything is going to shit.

Extremt märklig artikel. Vad handlar den om? Och citatet som återkommer tre gånger gör ont i ögonen. www.dn.se/sverige/lara...

Well if it ain’t the consequences of my own decision to keep publishing racists in the Spectator

Minimum Income Requirements continue to rip families apart, leave children without a parent, and destroy lives. No-one should be forced to see their family split up based on how much they earn. www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

You know you’re an immigrant when your 6 year old child laughs hysterically at you while correcting your pronunciation.

It’s also tragedy that this has to be said, that we can’t even mourn each other’s children.

I don’t know what to call this but flamboyantly evil.

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

Glad to be alongside 100+ faith leaders, refugee advocates and others who wrote to the Home Secretary, about why we believe asylum seekers who are granted refugee status in our country should have a path to becoming full British citizens too. www.refugeecouncil.org.uk/latest/news/...

From last week: Good character guidance amended to block refugees from naturalisation | Sonia Lenegan

100% this. It also feeds into objectifying migrants as workers, which makes it easy to remove rights to family, stability etc.

Jag hoppas att den del av högern som förstår precis hur allvarlig situationen är nu snart också inser att den gjort upp med ett parti som applåderar det som sker. Och drar slutsatser av det.

I'm writing a critique of the idealism/realism/feasibility debate in the political theory of migration. David Miller argues that a contextual approach to feasibility would rule out permanent alienage because liberal democracies find this intolerable.

Om det är något som sliter upp ”samhällsgemenskapen” så är det att lagstifta on att alla medborgare inte är lika mycket värda.

Vi är många utrikesjournalister som ser det här förslaget som nu ska "utredas" som urbota dumt. Till de politiker som sitter i sina villaförorter eller på Östermalm och tycker att man aldrig behöver bo nån annanstans, vill jag säga: mitt svenska medborgarskap är lika mycket värt som ditt. Hands off.

Kristersson vädjade om att alla ska göra sitt för att landet ska hålla ihop efter Örebro. Kort därefter utser hans regering en landshövding vars största strider handlat om förtal och rätten att hålla fast vid rasistiska formuleringar. www.dn.se/ledare/krist...

Sinister shit

We join 148+ organisations calling on the government to urgently rethink ban on UK citizenship to refugees who arrive in small boats or hidden in vehicles. The ban risks leaving tens of thousands of people as “second-class citizens”. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

We’re one of 148 signatories to new joint letter warning rules banning many asylum seekers from citizenship will ‘breed division and mistrust’ www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Abolish student evaluations.

This is absolute racist drivel and should be called out for it. I am a child of an immigrant. I am British. As are millions of others. If he’d swapped Pakistan for Australia, his so called theory falls on its face because his apparent problem is race, not nationality.

World’s oldest democracy? Tops since 1965. Not sure we can get serious about the present if we’re deluded about the past.

Weird stage of feeling positive about my book manuscript and how it’s progressing. Might starting posting here for accountability. It’s called Unbounding Solidarity. It’s about the alleged solidarity conflict between domestic distributive justice and the right to asylum.

Den här regeringen alltså. Kommer säkert ta minst 20-30 år att reparera deras nedmontering av det Sverige vi kände innan 2022.

Microsoft introducing an AI assistant in Word is hilarious. Like please bitch can you sort out copy and paste first.

I’ve been writing about how refugees are subject to domination by the international order of nation-states, one example being how arbitrarily states can change their citizenship policies. It’s hard to overstate what an authoritarian move this is. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Han borde skämmas över att ha skrivit det här. Centrerar sin egen nostalgi, nämner överhuvudtaget inte vilka som faktiskt utsatts eller vilken otrygghet (den statligt legitimerade) rasismen skapar. www.dn.se/debatt/doden...
