Britain is broken.
Reform’s answer is like fracking: widen the cracks so the rich elites can extract anything of value , while we’re distracted by division.
The Greens are kintsugi: repairing what’s broken, filling the cracks with value, and holding communities together.

Ok folks, we are all fed up with the damage do to this country by 14 years if tory rule, which is being continued by the current Labour gov.
Effectively 17 years of decay, desimation of public services and social devision has all but destroyed what was a great country to live in.

Hypothetical question, but given the accelerated pace of decline of the US gestapo, how long before there is an equivalent to the French Resistance (which gets scary in a country where guns can be bought from to local supermarket).

Myra Hindley was treated better.
As a minimum Bergum should be brought back to the UK, tried for any crimes she may have committed, and more importantly be given help for the damage done via the grooming she incountered.
Being made stateless, even via a loophole, is not acceptable.

Begum may be 'distasteful', but it is pretty clear she was a victim of grooming and trafficking. The decision to make her defacto stateless is also clearly incompatibile with the principles of international law. Labour doubling down doesn't change that it is bad. 1/2

They are either fracking pervs, or will be using appearance only, which will result in many people beyound their target group, being excluded. Neither is good.

They’re so immersed in their own transphobic hate bubble, they don’t even realise how bad this makes them look!

There is regular migration, whereby the person arrives in the country with a visa, and irregular migration whereby the person arrives without a visa - that's it.

Deep breath, once more for those at the back, seeking asylum is not illegal. No matter route used, which considering Labour has closed pretty much all the last remaining alternatives means irregular ones.
Anti-immigration sentiments are stoked by politicians like Mahmood, not people seeking safety.
