How does this promote integration? Stability? Mental health?
In what world is it ok to make asylum seekers permanently afraid of a knock on the door?
Labour are sick. Certainly no better than the Tories were. And arguably worse, because they SHOULD be better!

You'll notice that there are certain demographics in society - the poor, immigrants, disabled people - who we are constantly told live on easy street with the government lavishing them with riches, and even after decades of policy designed to stop this, still have it way too good.

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

I want you to get vaccinated if you can, for everything that you can, to protect both yourself and those who cannot.
I used to have this argument about the flu shot. People I know were all "well i'm young and in good health so i don't need to." Do you care about anyone who is not those things?!

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)

Using Golden Ticket to describe people who have fled war and destitution to legally seek asylum. An internationally recognized legal right that the UK is treaty bound to recognize is pure cruelty and evil. It is the language of Nazis, of deportations, of camps and life unworthy of life. Evil.

If you want people to believe a different story, you have to tell a different story. And more than tell it. People learn by example. They must be shown the truth that, for example, immigrants are awesome, respecting other races is rewarding, working people generate our wealth, and so on.
