Labour : Not that kind of growth. The imaginary kind that comes from 3rd runways, less consumer protection and not solving Social Care.

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots.

UK set to limit refugees to temporary stays
Shabana Mahmood is expected to say the era of permanent protection for refugees is over, in major changes to the UK's asylum and immigration system.

Lots of Labour MPs asking Mahmood tonight to rule out child detention. She won’t rule it out. That’s because forced removals of families will mean children in detention for periods.

Home Office ruling out deportation of lone minors but the changes will certainly mean more detention of children.

So first time actually on a bike yesterday - I took the Fixie down to find a distant cousins grave marker in the local cemetery. Which was kinda cool because I thought I was the first of my family to live here.

Thank you Ancestry rabbit hole!

I had to hang on in there today to get this. Literally typed it twice but didn’t recognise it as a word because I was so disappointed that it wasn’t Jay from the Inbetweeners favourite word.

This man was trafficked into Britain, in ways which the government would now use to make him subject to deportation. According to a leading political pundit, he brought with him ancestral violence, which means that he *and his British-born children* should be expelled.

This man.

I was today years old when I learnt you can pay £1.50 and download any old randoms will lodged in the UK for about the last 40-50 years.

So I’ve just bought my grand parents plus 3 randoms who might be related.
