If we are going to publish league tables for criminals who were migrants and their nationalities should we also publish league tables of nationalities for those migrants that have made a positive contribution? How many Eastern Europeans, Indians, Pakistanis and West Indians are saving the NHS?

Absolute joke that the combined added time in the match was only four minutes when five goals were scored and six substitutions were made. How does that add up?!

Secretary of State for Work and Pensions Liz Kendall's speech today laid out plans to cut disability and sickness benefits by billions.

❌ No truly moral choice would leave disabled people without support designed to allow them to lead a dignified life, or facing hardship. 1/4

Ollie Watkins has reached 100 goal involvements in the fewest Premier League games (169) by any player since Kevin De Bruyne achieved the milestone in 155 matches in July 2020. 🔥

I don’t want to hear another word from Farage about foreign interference. Hypocrisy you can see from space and I haven’t heard a single broadcaster call him out for it.

Clubs rub this kind of thing in fans' faces all over their PR channels and social media while refusing to lower ticket prices. It's an uphill battle for supporters of these clubs. #stopexploitingloyalty

There are five obvious reasons why Saudi Arabia should not be hosting the 2034 World Cup, including migrant worker abuse, all supporters not feeling welcomed and the guidelines changing to allow an obvious sole bidder.

Have detailed them all in here ⬇️

This may be interesting it may not be...

We have the same 🟥 loss rate as 2023-24 @ 29%
What is different is the wins 🟩 48% vs. 53%

So weird as it may sound the defeats have had less impact than the draws not being turned into victories.. palace, mufc, juve... just 1 would have us >23/24

Crucial insight here.

Racists are insatiable.

Non-racists don’t think migration is all that important.

Labour’s migration policy must not chase the dream of satiating racists.
CPS report deliberative groups liked reducing net migration to zero least of the options
- didn't think it was possible
- identified specific reasons/needs why not

But for smaller hardline group, reducing *net* to zero didn't go nearly far enough unless shut borders & deporting lots of people too!
