It wasn't in the 15 minute segment on radio 4 I listen to this morning which covered at great lengths the competing claims of what the different sides say had happened. Its not in the summary bullet points on the "live" page on the BBC right now.

They could just describe the footage. They could say the ice officer walked in front of the car, the driver turned the wheels away from the officer. The officer shot her and continued to shoot her after the car was level with him and not heading towards him.

This paper implies there has been a 17% rise in homelessness in 2 years that is not attributable to asylum seekers. Seems pretty big.

That's not what that graph shows. It shows people are more negative now than people have been in the past about the economy.

The local gov is saying in the local plan "you can build here if you want" to developers. Which in london means it's v likely someone will build there.

"device for allocating seats to who value seats most highly" is obviously false. It's a device for allocating seats to those who will pay the most for them.

The NHS is better on some things and worse on others. I don't think a single payer naturally leads to worse quality.
The US being richer is a reason you'd expect them to have better quality healthcare.
Also us median wages are maybe 10% more then UK based on ppp. I wouldn't call that far richer.

The printing press led to centuries of wars in Europe. Sure the end outcome was good for humanity but yeah... not a strong argument for not considering the impacts of new technologies.

Most people on extended visas can apply for ilr after 5 years. Almost everyone can after 10 years. You say they can apply by the "normal routes" but what we're talking about here is ending one of those normal routes.
