I am old enough to remember when that charlatan Farage said leaving the EU would get immigration 'under control'.
Now he says we must all lose our human rights, leave the ECHR, leave the Refugee Convention and deport 1m people to get immigration 'under control'.
And still some people listen to him
Important legal news
GOP folks crying about Democrat redistricting in response to their redistricting = Brexiters crying about it being more difficult to visit the EU as a consequence to leaving the EU and ending free movement of people
"More with less" is such a weasel phrase
A number of space science organizations offered support for Isaacman's nomination because he is a proponent of space exploration and claimed he would support science. But now that science is on the chopping block -- and human spaceflight isn't -- he is volunteering to give NASA the DOGE treatment.
Not up a nostril. Just to a crypto account
Childcare worker: DBS vetted, OFSTED accountable.
Mother: no vetting required.
This is not about safety, it's about control. Reform want women in the home, not at work.
Meanwhile, the types of people who get through Reform's "vetting"...

How much Americans have shelled out to Elon Musk through government contracts: $38 billion.

Oligarchy is real. The system is rigged.
Nigel Farage keeps boasting about
how Reform candidates are 'carefully vetted'

Can't you imagine how the orange is going to increase the vitriol with which he is suing the BBC?
Yeah, I'm with the second opinion in that story lead.
She's my 🤬 MP
One of the MANY strange things about Blue Labour is that it's not at all transparent about its membership. It's an ideological movement and an internal lobbying group rather than an identifiable faction group of socially conservative MPs and Parliamentary staffers wrapped in the flaaaag.
Nothing will convince me that Mahmood isn't a Reform plant at this stage. This isn't about how she looks, race, religion or anything else. It is that she is implementing abhorrently racist and xenophobic policies while telling those who point out that they are such to fuck off. Hardly a winning plan
