You'll notice that there are certain demographics in society - the poor, immigrants, disabled people - who we are constantly told live on easy street with the government lavishing them with riches, and even after decades of policy designed to stop this, still have it way too good.
No, I'd say it's racists and those pandering to them.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

The Daily Telegraph doesn't seem to publish circulation figures and hasn't since 2019; however based on the decline in newspapers generally, it's circulation now is estimated at 150,000. Which is already lower than Green Party membership!

Never once demanding the ethnicity of the brave man who saved dozens of lives

I have half an hour before my next interview so I'm going to sketch out what I find an important problem with the fashionable division of immigrants into "net contributors" and "net recipients" of government spending. 1/10
The argument of Lam, Philp and Badenoch would be "tell the net contributors they can stay & tell the others we are v sad to kick them out"
Maybe they would have retreated just on pragmatic reciprocity, though Lam is willing to forget about that in what she says here about her mass expulsion plans

@tedcruz Are you a serious politician or a racist 6 year old?
Ted Cruz just posted a video montage with photos of every Democratic senator altered to make them wear sombreros and mustaches. It’s set to the song Macarena.

Downing Street says of Palestine Action “this is a violent organisation that has committed violence, significant injury, extensive criminal damage”. Palestine Action says it is non-violent. I found no evidence of advocating violence & just 1 minor charge of assault. Who’s right? Are they terrorists?
