My granddad was a refugee, my wife, our close friends and those of our kids are either immigrants or the children of immigrants.
Do ministers ever think about the message their rhetoric on "handouts" and "golden tickets" for migrants sends about whether this is a government for people like us?

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.
Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

Fuck the right wing Labour Party and Morgan McSweeney. They destroyed our hope of something better when they took down Jeremy Corbyn.
The rule of law for whom?
Private equity managers taxed at lower rates.
NHS drugs prices be hiked by 25% to appease companies.
Bankers' bonus cap abolished.
Chancellor ready to override Supreme Court judgment, cut compensation to victims of car loan scandals.
Bank frauds not investigated.

As Trump and Netanyahu’s disastrous postwar plans become clear, the U.S. must recognize and respect Palestinian statehood — as 81% of the world already does.
