Tory to Reform UK Defection Tracker
Reform UK are presenting themselves as an insurgent political party, yet their adoption of former Conservatives shows they are nothing more than the 'Tories in disguise'.

Over 20 years, Iran has been the No1 country of origin for asylum seekers in the UK.
Those who campaign to slash the rights of refugees, but today decry the savagery of the Iranian regime, need to have a little think.
There is no safe route to the UK for Iranian asylum seekers.

The brutal & horrific repression of protest in Iran is just the latest illustration why immigration may be falling, numbers of asylum seekers are not falling at all.

The folks at More In Common found 2/3 of Brits are WRONG about immigration…
But are we really? Or do we just mean 2 different things when we talk about immigration?

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

So Nadim Zahawi is the latest failed Tory to join the re-branded, even more racist Tories - the Reform Party!
I've debated Zahawi in the past, and he really is extraordinarily poor.
Oh, & a hypocrit of course, as a refugee himself who'd deny his own family refuge now.

MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.
The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.
