The BBC undercover investigation into false immigration claims is deeply irresponsible journalism. It does not highlight that exploitation by unregulated advisors occurs because legal aid was cut and the system is insane to navigate.
I agree - but it is a Christian doctrine and contains the word 'war' so the White House will keep using the words to mean exactly what they want them to and badmouth anyone who suggests they are not 'just'
Listen to @upperthames.bsky.social Nick Bowles on R4 Today this morning

Not sure that it is fair to people who live with mental illness to label what is causing the hatred that comes out of the White House - it is enough to call out the behaviour as selfish, cruel and hate-filled - most humans are not whatever their mental health
In the last few days we've had MPs hammered for... erm dancing in public at a community fisco and using their phone in a pub.

A religious statue in a French church. It’s actually St John Vianney, but it looks a lot like William Hartnell as the Doctor. Or, indeed, like John Wesley.
Ah, look, a statue of the First Doctor. Or possibly John Wesley.
