No child should be used as a political punching bag. Farage’s attack on #Glasgow’s multilingual pupils is code for attacking the children of those of colour and of refugee or immigrant backgrounds. Targeting migrant children is just another dog whistle and an utter disgrace. Shame on #NigelFarage.

Shabana Mahmood is engineering the biggest humanitarian emergency this country has seen in decades.

🧵1. The BBC frames “asylum seekers using taxis” as if people are gaming the system. But every example shows contractor abuse: inflated mileage, pointless dispatches, bill-padding. This is a procurement racket the Home Office built and refuses to regulate. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Government to ban asylum seekers from using taxis
The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.
