Labour’s latest attack on asylum seekers is cruel & counterproductive. How does it help community cohesion to hold threat of deportation over vulnerable people? We don’t need an arms race with the hard right over asylum, we need safe routes & European cooperation #bbclaurak

Typical of governments throughout the ages, to blame the natural world for it's failings.
This is why we no longer have Wolves, Lynx, Bears and many other species in the UK. Because they are all guilty of getting in the way of human greed.

This is what many of us have been saying. Part 3 of the Planning & Infrastructure Bill is based on a myth: that we don't have enough homes because wildlife and green spaces are protected. It will solve nothing, and inflict terrible harm on our remaining ecosystems

Why aren't people reading history books anymore. There are plenty in the book shops and online.

If the government really intends to seize jewellery and other valuables from refugees,
either
- it is staggeringly ignorant of the historical precedents
or
