So the BBC did a news story on the horrible conditions in the hotels were people seeking asylum are forced to live and instead of the media talking about humanity and compassion about improving conditions and letting them work, this was the outcome:
So how exactly are they meant to get to them? Many are placed in areas without accessible transport links. They can't afford to pay for journeys themselves because of how little support they get.
Yet again Labour choosing to pander to Reform than think of consequences.

They're disguising it in fewer words now, but the political establishment chuntering about "welfare spending" are saying that our lives don't matter to them.
We are simply disgusting pig people - drains on resources - and they are the protagonists of reality.

This analysis is no more complicated than "Big number bad" and should be treated with absolute, withering contempt and revulsion until these people are too ashamed to come back out in public.
Tim’s big simple idea here is “What if we just wreck the postwar settlement and then let people starve and die” and this time, when the disaster looms, just let them starve and die. Let’s face it, eventually one of these governments is going to pull the trigger once and for all.

And then, eventually, it'll be our turn to pull the trigger on them. 🤞

Everything is broken or absurdly expensive due to near fifty years of these fucking clowns resisting improvements because they instead want to destroy, only to discover that if you do that lots of people starve or die, then having to improvise to fend off disaster.

The central delusion of Thatcherism is the idea politicians can destroy the postwar settlement and replace it with nothing, which in practice turns out to always be panicking governments shoring up the systems they vandalised fuck out of, using sticky tape and wood glue.

Oh it's even worse than that, because I'm sure these little guys are actually being driven (by default or via manual override) by lowly-paid gig economy contractors... in the Philippines and other Global South countries.
Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

If you literally cannot be trusted to go on your phone and interact with the public without very publicly shitting yourself then exploding in a megaton mushroom cloud of bullshit and squealing, then you have no business being an MP, never mind a socialist one.
