"If we have less opportunities to do that, we're at risk of losing that status [as the centre of the cutting edge of music].

"We have a sense of belonging to this land. That does not happen by chance. It happens by design, and it can only happen in a country that promotes integration based on the values of decency, respect and contribution."

This is why Trump is closing the Kennedy Centre on July 4 - nobody decent will play there for him after what he's done, so he's shutting it down as a cover-up

still, at least Brexity Tim Martin might be able to keep all his 800+ pubs open
With Reform UK's "starve a kid to save a quid" policy, single-parent families would be blocked no matter the work status of the parent, as would families where one or both parents are non-Brits.

And then of course, there are the direct actions of Peter Mandelson to enrich Epstein & his contacts.
There's more.

On 31 March 2010, Lord Mandelson's principal private secretary sent him a note of a meeting between the Chancellor of the Exchequer and Larry Summers, US Treasury Secretary.

Lord Mandelson forwarded it to Jeffrey Epstein five minutes later.
