What will be the economic consequence of deporting 150,000 people a year using paramilitary snatch squads? Not even a question for #wato.

Not covering recent news on Millei in Argentina means the BBC can get away with reporting the same shit here as a thing. #wato

Back in the day, notorious dimwit IDS was spinning this nonsense on welfare savings. Not sure if Helen Whately is much of an upgrade. #wato
