Yeah good luck

Almost nobody in the Cons Party or beyond it had noticed that the Shadow Home Secretary with two other frontbenchers and 5 backbenchers tabled a bill in May to deport 3 million people - stripping almost every pensioner, parent or nurse who did not take out citizenship of their right to live here

my hot take: we absolutely can and should punish her for that. half of this has come about because of a solidification of her (wildly incorrect numbers) sun article, which they issued a correction for. if my wife can rattle around in katie's deportation jar, i can happily see katie get the boot

remove her from her job, let nobody ever forget the horrendous nonsense she came out swinging for, and take all of her printed music scores and bury them under the north sea. this person should never be put in front of the public ever again

However, critique that this is either a dog whistle "or so vague as to be meaningless" may overlooks that it is not Katie Lam - the junior whip - but Chris Philp, the Shadow Home Secretary - who proposed 3 mllion deportations

Philp did not make that kind of Powellite claim for why he proposed it

... and, although nowhere near the outrage that is this Conservative plan, it's worth remembering that Labour are proposing a doubling of the time to settlement which seems to have no other reason or purpose than to signal that non-British nationals are no longer as welcome as they may have been.

So that would include my wife are they going to give us the money back we spent why the fuck do they think she went through the whole fucking visa process

‘One immigration judge claims that some fee-paid, part-time judges are “avoiding” sitting or have stopped doing immigration work. Others have decided to retire early or given up appointments and some may be “tempering” their rulings.’

Immigration judges too ‘scared’ to work after Jenrick’s comments

So my daughter in other words who has spent 4 weeks in her mother's homeland at the age of 4 what an absolute fucking shower of shit these pricks are

Can't tell if it would apply to my wife but I would never vote for those c###s anyway and labour has little to no chance

Exactly - Labour is itself contemplating changing the immigration rules in a very major way on people who have already arrived here. With a view to forcing some of them to leave. Otherwise, what on earth would be the purpose of the change?

Its too close

UK children living in the most disadvantaged areas are more likely to die in intensive care, children living in poverty projected to rise to 4.8m by 2029.

Govts tinker with poverty. Push real wage/benefit cuts, don't curb profiteering, appease the rich, destroy futures.

When will you lot realise he is not acting

Sadly prob quite a few but many will also be from surrounding areas like Normanton Castleford Pontefract

Solid story of the forced break-up of an American family. In 1970s, we started to hear about "broken families." We were told it was bad for kids not to have a Dad at home. The culprit then was divorce and feminism.

In 2020s, the U.S. govt intentionally breaks families.

5 minutes worth watching.

Just learned that Firing doesn’t ~necessarily~ mean you violated a CeaseFire

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire??

Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

There is evidence supporting this globally already. When you repeat far right framing you end up normalising it. We're seeing same thing with Labour pandering to the far right, and how they're actually helping Reform gain support with their rhetoric and policies.

Marie McGowan, 89, has died 3 years after a brutal assault during which she was put headfirst into a rubbish bin. Her attacker, Alex Bailey, believed she was "a man dressed as a woman."

This is the world the transphobes are creating "to protect women."

RIP Marie. share.google/PFaI5YTh9tBw...

Is she still an MP? how the hell did that happen?

Some ally they are he certainly does not need any help in that regard

And its the reason they have my vote next election

More of this across the board from politicians please. You can disagree with @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the @greenparty.org.uk on issues, but you have to admit they are the only ones actually taking the rhetoric, fully and uncompromisingly, on immigration back from Reform.
