Note to Keir and Yvette. It's not just that our NHS, care homes, logistics... society could not function without immigrants, it's more that I love having friends from all over the World with different cultures and traditions.

Endless references in media coverage today to the rapid increases in net migration in recent years and often too little explanation as to why: (i) keeping UK HE/social care afloat and (ii) an attempt to deal with post Covid labour shortages/supply chain inflation.

I am once again reminding Labour MPs that you do not have to stay under the leadership of a party that spits in the face of human decency.

Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around. They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway. It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

I think this is largely a function of them being trapped by the fiscal situation. They can't fix anything so trying to blame others. It won't work any better than it did for the Tories.

40 years ago a horrific fire at Bradford City's Valley Parade ground claimed the lives of 56 people. It took less than four minutes for a small fire to become a raging inferno. Warnings had been ignored.

Why is ICE wearing masks? What are they hiding? The Mayor of Newark was arrested at an ICE facility—when elected officials showed up, masked agents roughed them up, including an 80-year-old congresswoman. Why?!

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear that Reform UK’s policies add up to an agenda of fiscal recklessness that rivals, and may well exceed, the disastrous 49-day, hair-raising, market-tanking premiership of Liz Truss in 2022 econ.st/42WSuLG

Everyone in education management should have at least 5 years of teaching experience, and those leading/ making policy should have 10. The most odious s**t I have ever seen written about education has been penned by MAT CEOs and celebrity SPADs who never taught anyone in their lives. #EduSky

The government has published no evidence to suggest that cutting disability benefits will get people back to work. The evidence it has published found that these cuts would plunge hundreds of thousands of people into poverty. I’m joining @trusselluk.bsky.social in calling on the gov’t to rethink

The irony is the revolution against technocrats will end with officials running the councils because Reform councillors will have no idea what to do + many don't even want to be doing it.

Labour have fucked up big style by trying to take on the right wing. They can't take on Farage by stooping to the lowest denominator. They need to actually address issues and go back to Socialist principles so that the working classes can see a path to a better life

While he is largely irrelevant at present, it is notable that the language of Shadow Lord Chancellor Robert Jenrick is nearly identical (if less illiterately expressed) in his ongoing personal attacks on individual judges. A disturbing trend for the rule of law.

The 8th May has been marked as VE Day since before Trump was born. VE stands for Victory in Europe. As for the First World War, the idea that some Yank who refused to serve in the military, will command people around the world not to call it Rembrance Day is laughable. Sod off.

There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all. It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.
