People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home.
I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

Our politics and media have become viciously obsessed with immigration. Farage has made sure of it. And in that obsession, they’ve all lost sight of the people they target. Fellow human beings trying to live and belong somewhere.

No more statements of condemnation. No more “keeping dialogue open” to allow trickles of aid deliveries. No more complicity in ethnic cleansing and genocide. We call on every government in the world to urgently suspend trade and sanction Israel NOW.

If there’s so much buyer’s remorse about Brexit, why is Nigel Farage the rising figure in UK politics?
Ten years on, an angry tribe sees itself as more English than British - and Ireland must stay alert to the dangers

It’s not Zelensky’s war or Biden’s war or Trump’s war.
It is Putin’s war.
Why can’t Trump simply say that? Why is he obsessed with blaming everyone else? It is a simple and obvious truth that should be stated with moral clarity.
But the US president is a liar and a coward.

Labour are backtracking on a plan to help save birds: by blocking a new rule that would make developers put a £35 nest brick in every new home. They think it'll help win them votes - we need to show it would do the opposite. Sign the petition 38d.gs/ky2i

Swifts have lost more than half their population in 20 years. A simple £35 brick in new builds could help save them. Labour used to support this – now they’re planning to backtrack. Sign the petition ...

In April the UK continued to focus on making pacts with both the EU and the US. Soon we may have to make a choice

Nearly six thousand regular UK military personnel are foreign born, either from Commonwealth countries or Nepal (e.g. Gurkas).
A third of higher education staff are not UK nationals.
A lot of this country would simply not function without those 7.2 million.

Farage:
"7.2 million foreign-born people have registered with GPs in the last 10 years... All I'm doing here is giving you cold hard facts".
Well here's another cold hard fact - 40.6% of GPs in England and Wales are foreign born.
The NHS would completely collapse without workers from abroad.

Brexit is more unpopular than ever with nearly 75% of Brits wanting rid of it because they can't see a single benefit.
But among the Media and Celebrities there is almost complete silence, because their bosses are the only people who want it.
