Cool, so I'm not *really* British then?

Is this *all* crimes? Like, are we going to strip citizenship from and deport people who have been convicted of speeding, or not paying their TV licence, for example?

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Gee, I wish citizens of the US had a constitutional right to bear arms in the form of a well regulated militia to ensure the security of a free state.

That would be really helpful right now, I reckon.

Whenever I have had to work through my lunch-break*, it's normally because the system has fcked up.

I've always claimed it back, though.

*the absolute legal minimum of 30mins in a 13hr shift.
Kemi can eat whatever she wants, but can we please stop lionising working through lunch?

We've all done it on occasion but it doesn't make you some productivity hero, and it's a terrible message to send to staff under you when you make it clear, as she does, that it's an expectation.
