Coverage of the refugee proposals demonstrates why we have such a broken political system. Endless focus on left-wing anger and right-wing support. Basically nothing on whether the reforms will work. They will not, which is why we'll still be here having the same debate in three years.

Farage and Zia Yusuf are going to announce tomorrow that a Reform government will strip millions of EU nationals of benefits, more than double the cost of the NHS surcharge and cut foreign aid spending by more than 70%, The Times reports.
More Trumpian blood and soil nonsense.

"Starmer, Mahmood, and McSweeney are testing to destruction the idea that stealing the far right's clothes will win the far right votes. They are about to be disappointed."
From Reform-Lite to Reform-Plus
Do you remember the lies Keir Starmer told to secure Labour's leadership? Under pledge six, 'Defend immigrants' rights', among other things ...

Wary of opining on this for obvious reasons, I don't think people who scream racist abuse in the street are that interested in your migration status.
Indeed, I think part of the problem is they often use "asylum seeker" as a stand in for "migrant I don't like the look of".

- It is entirely legitimate for the Home Secretary to highlight the overt racism that she receives for taking part in public life.
- Everybody should oppose that racism against her, whatever their politics.
- But it is important to make several other points about this argument about racism.

The stupidity of Farage’s latest ‘plan’ is staggering.
Claiming they’d save British taxpayers money by ripping up international commitments and starting a trade war with Europe is the puerile foot-stamp of a party that uses prejudice as policy. Ruinous nonsense.

It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop

Trump tells the GOP to vote to release the files, and he’ll give them whatever they’re “legally entitled to.” How long before he tells everyone they’re legally entitled to nothing because of the open and ongoing “investigation” he opened into a “hoax”?

Epstein was convicted in 2008.
This dump of emails shows him *over a decade later* in constant communication with damn near everyone with any degree of power.
There are emails from 2019, 11 years later, over decade later.

The thing about elon going to epstein island in 2014 is that Epstein very publicly became a registered convicted sex offender in 2008, 6 years earlier.
Note: Epstein set up Elon's brother Kimbal with a girlfriend in 2011, 3 years after Epstein became a registered convicted sex offender.
