A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Fantastic news. Not only does every day Starmer remains leader make Labour's crushing defeat more inevitable bt it's important that he is leader when this happens. Labour not only need to be decimated but Starmer needs to carry full & unequivocal responsibility for how awful his government has been

‘Delays inevitable’: Starmer leadership safe until May elections, say Labour MPs

UK politics live – latest updates
Labour MPs have said they believe Keir Starmer’s leadership is safe until at least the May elections, after a budget that avoided any major damaging measures but which few MPs believe will revive the party’s fortunes.
More than a dozen previously loyal MPs told the Guardian they did not believe the budget would shift the fundamentals required for the party to beat Reform. “It only delays what is inevitable,” one minister said. Continue reading...

Two points:
1) The Labour party knows what it is proposing isn't popular, they are doing it because they want to.
2) Liberal pundits asking "Why would Labour do this!?" know why Labour is doing it but do not want to make that clear for various reasons.

I remember being told that it was me that was the Hitlerian menace to civil liberties, and that these people were the antidote to my racist hatred. Chat, would we say this seems like that's turned out to be true?

For Shabana Mahmood to attack some of the most cruelly treated people in the world as having won a "golden ticket" because they manage to get to and claim asylum in Britain is unforgiveable.
A new, far right, low for which I can think of no precedent, by any UK Government.

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

Wikipedia founder Jimbo Wales is trying to use his name to convince Wikipedia editors to deny the Gaza Genocide, recognized by many human rights organizations.
Although he's not seizing control, this is an extreme attempt to sway Wikipedia content in violation of its founding principles.

Saw a news report yesterday about children as young as 9 being given weight loss jabs on the NHS, and I think it shows just how utterly bullshit the “lack of research into long term impacts” excuse for banning puberty blockers for trans kids really was. It’s purely ideological.
