“It isn’t people seeking sanctuary who are tearing our country apart. It’s toxic, racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants for crises they did not cause.”

Carla Denyer challenges the Home Secretary's new immigration reforms saying they just fuel far-right narratives.

I can’t say this is the politics that the public deserves but it’s very much the politics that all of the principal actors have fought tooth and nail to get for ten long, grinding, increasingly horrifying years. These lads are like pigs in shit now, they think they are *kicking ass*.

Even I am shocked that British politics is this relentlessly insulting. There’s a new and worse affront to the public’s intelligence every six hours or so. At this rate, they’ll be pushing dog turds through their constituents’ letterboxes by November 2027.

Anyway, this is what happens when the Sensible Moderates agree that it’d be best if we now allowed utterly bleak frauds, crooks and far right psychos to dictate the terms of acceptable politics.

The way this Govenrment are treating some of the most vulnerable people in the world is disgusting.

And they the audacity to pretend it's coming from a place of compassion and concern.

Their only actual concern seems to be dancing to the tune of the far right rather than tackle inequality.

You got wormfished by a guy who eats roadkill and looks like fucking Krang. A guy you were tasked with covering neutrally, for half a milly a year, while he ran for fucking president on an "every disabled person should die" ticket.

Well, now your career is back, and so is measles. Well done.

So you're fine with eradicating trans people, starving the disabled, freezing the elderly, and now open Nazi-style racism, as long as it has a red rosette.

Understood.

My request is small: please bring warmth to my children's hearts. Don't abandon them; they are suffering from hunger and cold. If you leave us, we will die. We are out in the open, our feet are frozen. We need $300 to buy food and clothes.

Denmark did this & PROSECUTED DANES who gave refugees tea & biscuits, or a lift in the Danes' cars.

Are Brits prepared to be prosecuted for serving tea in their own homes to guests of their choice?

Nativists voting for these policies should know: they lose their freedom too.
What does this echo? Which other countries took jewellery/valuables off people they decided didn't belong?

"Alex Norris, a Home Office minister, has confirmed that refugees could have jewellery or other valuables taken to pay for the costs of processing their cases."

Guys be reasonable. You can’t go round calling people racist just because they’re doing Nazi stuff. That will only make them more racist. I am very sensible and nuanced. Can I have a column in the Guardian please seriously I’ll say anything

The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

Just wilful performative cruelty that is entirely out of step with the majority of British people.

How many Labour MPs got into politics in order to vote for stealing jewellery off of people seeking refuge from war and persecution?

One of the beautiful things about social media is that sometimes when you scream into the void, after a pause, a voice or two may answer back “fuck, me too” and you feel a little less alone in the world

UK Labour's plans for people fleeing war:

Military camps.
Coerced labour.
Confiscation of jewellery & valuable possessions.

Labour, Starmer and Mahmood are the emergency.
