Cut benefits, cut minimum wage, raise retirement age, means test pensions, get rid of the NHS.

Why are you voting for Farage?

The ones in the hats
were the fattest of cats,
and their honks and their hoots
Would grow in cahoots
In a place they all called Maralago!

Till the orange skinned fellow
Or it could have been yellow
Would bend at the knees
And release his foul breeze
In a curse he had cursed at Chicago

German author and ex-MP Jürgen Todenhöfer was arrested in Germany for tweeting "Benjamin Netanyahu is doing the same to Palestinians that Nazis did to Jews."

Bet there is complete silence from the 'Free Speech' crowd.

We’ve trashed the place over immigration. Brexit turned it into an ugly obsession that made us mad. Scrapping freedom of movement didn’t work. Losing our own rights just trapped us and our politicians and media won’t admit it.
So, on we go, playing the same hateful record… and failing.

Did it solve the immigration debate? Fuck no. Anti-immigration voices still say we have no control over immigration. That is quite literally the case Starmer is making this morning, despite having a front row seat for the end of free movement. After nearly a
decade of mutilating the country to address the 'legitimate concerns' about immigration, we're still being told the precise same nonsense we were told in 2016, or in 2005.

This is why the references to other European countries are so unhelpful. The context in which they introduced ID cards was completely different. Those countries did not construct their system during a moment of anti-immigration hysteria, nor did they design them to catch illegal immigrants. And nor, for that matter, do they have a better debate about immigration. ID cards have not stopped Marine Le Pen's success in France or Alternative für Deutschland in Germany.

We have tried, again and again, to placate anti-immigrant forces by accepting the premise of their argument. We have ruined our country in order to satisfy them. We have torn families apart. This government is currently in the position of disemboweling itself in order to placate them. It never works, because the debate on immigration is not grounded in empiricism but in perception.

I wonder if this guy is related to "Boris Johnson" who introduced "voter id" as Prime Minister in 2023 ... off the back of some crazy US conspiracy theories ... and in the process, made digital ID pretty much inevitable.

Johnson says he will never use government ID

Utter bollocks as usual. The only mention of the ECHR was in confirming that it wasn't considered at all by the judges. Deliberate lying to incite hatred and division by the the frog-faced gobshite.

It bothers me that today I had to point out…

To former Tory MP @PhilipDaviesUK

That the Hillsborough families invoked the ECHR in their fight for justice

Because he, like so many, either doesn’t know

…or is being disingenuous about the vital protections the ECHR affords us.

When a nation keeps having to publish denials that it is intentionally starving civilians, you can safely assume it’s because that nation is intentionally starving civilians.
