No asylum seekers arrive in the UK 'illegally'. If I wanted to vote for the Tories or Reform I would have done so last year. I didn't, I voted for Labour & I expect a Labour government, not this Reform Lite shite.

Transgender women are gradually being turned into non-persons, aren't they. Any news about the IOCC views on transgender men, or don't they exist for the current purposes of the alt.right culture war being aimed at the LGBTQ+ communities? Shameful behaviour, not that they or the Guardian care.

Excellent article that addresses the concerns of the people claiming asylum & gives them a voice, one that is currently drowned out by Farage, the UK press & media & as the author notes, the increasingly hard line taken by Labour, shamefully. Over to you Starmer & Cooper, you are not helping.
I’ve been frustrated to see so much of the ongoing story about asylum seekers and the protests against them covered without hearing from those seeking asylum and now being met with hostility and hatred

What makes Labour's behaviour really bizarre is that they have decided to alienate those supporters that decided to carry on supporting them after Corbyn left, which is the majority & the people that voted them in. It is an extraordinary display of self harm apart from anything else.
This summarises my own experience so well. I was an active member under Corbyn and intended initially to be the same when Starmer took over. That didn’t last as the party decided to court Reform voters by throwing minorities and its leftists under the bus. Why would I stay if I didn’t feel welcome?
The Home Secretary, supported by Starmer, have apparently decided that Labour voters who loathe Reform are to be ignored whilst Reform voters who loathe Labour are to be courted. That is the only explanation I can find for their latest actions & like many Labour voters, they have dumped me.
