We can call out the sheer hypocrisy of Reform UK, Lucy Connolly and the Tories who literally gave Alaa Abd el-Fattah his UK citizenship. But it doesn’t change el-Fattah’s own very real extremism and it doesn’t change the fact that the government(s) have dropped a serious b*ll*ck here.

Supporters of Nigel Farage’s Reform UK held the most extreme views of any party backers, with 71% saying that having British ancestry was a prerequisite for someone to be truly British(Guardian 30.12). So that rules out the Royal Family

Tory-run Slough has “lost track” of 500 people living in temporary accommodation, meaning it underestimated its spending by £10m. It blames staff turnover and incompetence, and a new IT system; but while the blunder was spotted in October 2024, officers have only just fessed up to councillors.
