That so many Afghans are having their asylum claims denied doesn't just show how out of control the hostile environment is, but also how out of touch with reality. Afghanistan under the Taliban is clearly not a safe place for many to remain, or be returned to. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Starmer's apologists will tell us "it's too soon to criticise him" until 2028, whereupon they'll tell us, "it's too close to the election, now is not the time." There is never a wrong time to hold your government to account.

Every defence and security system we have is entangled with the US. Even GPS is wholly owned by the US Space Force. Our intelligence is automatically shared with the US, whose bases here are allowed to spy on our own citizens. So if the US is now an enemy power, the enemy is already here.
