While Boris ended freedom of movement with the EU, net migration massively increased, regardless of how performatively cruel the Tories were to immigrants. What Starmer said isn't factually incorrect
Starmer keeps using this line, & it's bonkers.
Most importantly, it's untrue: the party that ended Free Movement, ran the "hostile environment" & made Suella Braverman Home Sec did not run "an experiment in open borders".
It's also politically mad. Voters who believe this will not vote for Starmer

!["And this is what Keir Starmer’s press secretary has said about Robert Jenrick at the lobby briefing this morning.
[Highlighted] Robert Jenrick was the immigration minister in a government that presided over an open borders experiment [Highlighted], a health minister who left people stuck on waiting lists, and a Treasury minister during the worst decline in living standards on record.”
While Reform continues to welcome failed Tory retreads, this Labor government is putting the country back on track."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cixgmtrg7nzy4gkmyfeosaox/bafkreibe3jczrmbmzfnhj2adl4qe432lbpmcbn6m6qrentwih7vxj4fu7y@jpeg)

Seconding this. It’s a truly horrifying moment in Australia, and sending all my love to those affected 🩵💔
I don’t have anything insightful to say about Bondi because the what insight can you offer about such evil?
Much love to my Jewish brothers and sisters, my Muslim brothers and sisters and to anyone else caught up in it.
Love is the answer to hate. That’s it. It’s that simple.

Coming to the conclusion that Zack Polanski's appeal has nothing to do with his personal qualities, but rather the fact he's a walking stereotype of a certain kind of totalizing British left-liberalism

Charlie Kirk should not have been killed. But it is worth remembering that this is the America he spend his entire life working to create. An America in which guns are plentiful and available, and politics is framed as an existential battle to the death.

Bad as the latest political assassination in the US is, let's not be distracted from the urgent need for Keir Starmer to sack Peter Mandelson. Now.

The decriminalisation of abortion made me remember what being proud of this country and content with a Labour government feels like. If only I could feel like that all the time

On top of the suffocating pro-Depp bent of discussion three years ago, was the almost-as-suffocating “neutral” people who just said “they’re just as bad as each other” and shut off their brains
On the three-year anniversary of the verdict in Depp v. Heard, I wrote about realizing the terrible truth that she was, in fact, the victim—and seeing the DARVO playbook weaponized against endless women online and in the courts ever since.

The inevitable result of Starmer abjectly lacking any form of political philosophy or idea of Britain’s place in the world.
Contradictory policy decisions designed to a) not piss anyone off, and b) suck up to Trump.
Starmer should grow a spine or resign.

Good language. Signed by 25 countries. Germany one of them. Another welcome diplomatic gesture. But now Germany needs a proper military doctrine.

The main lesson to learn from this Trump administration is to believe the far-right when they tell you who they are
Vamce as Groyper in Chief is just creating absolutely insane dynamics. Every fashy Anglo Groyper suddenly thinks they have the ear of the VP and some probably do.
