Scary response from Noem. So is the US now doing to deport and Venezuelans’ in the country?
FOX: There's huge concern among hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans who are here legally through TPS. Are you gonna force them to return even as their govt is in flux?
NOEM: Venezuela is more free than it was yesterday & it's gonna continue to be that way as long as President Trump is in the WH

MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.
The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.

What is wrong with Labour? Instead of a list of achievements, they are creating a list of failures.
This government has not taken a single meaningful step to tackle the causes of the horrendous inefficiencies in the criminal justice system, instead rushing to dismantle trial by jury.
Legal professionals have offered numerous alternatives to address the backlog.
Ministers are not listening.

It’s not been thought through at all. It’s back of a fag-packet hate stuff, that’s all. Incompetent as well as viciously horrible.
It will also mean people's refugee status will be reviewed every 2 and half years. If this policy was in place now, that would mean the Home Office having at least another 67k decisions to process over the next year (the number of initial decision grants made between April 2023 and March 2024)
