Labour is telling you VERY LOUDLY who to vote for if you value human rights. And it's definitely NOT LABOUR.

Jolyon Maugham KC @goodlawproject.org · 10d

Woah! So Labour's position really is, 'telling us off for breaching human rights undermines the case for human rights'? Proper Trumpian stuff from Labour's answer to Suella Braverman.

😱Sounds outrageous?

You know the drill…

If it sounds outrageous and designed to trigger you into being angry with “other” people, then you need to do some 🪏

Let’s clear up some facts. There is no such thing as an “illegal immigrant”. The UK DOES NOT grant asylum visas overseas, except for very limited schemes (except large schemes for Ukraine and Hong Kong).Refugees can only claim for asylum when in the UK. So their fate can only be decided, once here.

Labour's Brexit stance actively harms our ability to rejoin the EU because it wastes years we could have spent beginning the rejoining process and makes it MUCH less likely Labour can win a second term.

That pushes rejoining at least another decade into the future and maybe a lot further than that.

“What really worries me is seeing the impacts now at this relatively low level of warming where things are already getting really stressed, and thinking about what’s this going to be like in five years or 10 years, or even next year”

The first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change is happening! Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation, is at risk of being submerged under rising sea level, so it has signed an agreement with Australia to allow 280 Tuvaluans to settle in Australia as permanent residents each year.

The First Planned Migration of an Entire Country Is Underway

The Pacific island nation of Tuvalu could be submerged in 25 years due to rising sea levels, so a plan is being implemented to relocate its population to Australia.

Sort of feel it is good ally-ship to engage and try to take them down through reasoned argument. But tbh on this site I agree and so block them to deprive them of the oxygen of attention!

In the UK we are all immigrants, or the descendants of immigrants, be it centuries back. Pride in all our histories!

Well I work in safeguarding and social workers can’t remove
children, despite the fear mongering. It has to be the decision of a judge, with due process.

Logically: anything less than the rate of death by human error, assuming the perpetrators would be driving the cars if there were no self drive cars.

Viscerally: 0. Shudder. I would rather die by human error than tech malfunction!
