This isn't some cynical political calculation from the Labour gov, Mahmood is clearly enjoying her moment, she believes in what she is doing and from that Starmer and the Cabinet also.

How to lose friends and alienate people.
Lots of Labour MPs asking Mahmood tonight to rule out child detention. She won’t rule it out. That’s because forced removals of families will mean children in detention for periods.

Home Office ruling out deportation of lone minors but the changes will certainly mean more detention of children.

What is it that people expect from deporting people?

Because it won't lower House prices or rents.
And it won't make food or energy cheaper.
There won't be more jobs and they certainly won't pay better.

At what point do you realise it is going to achieve nothing?

If Labour got the economy back on track, prices down, standard of living better. They wouldn’t need to act like Nazis.

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

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?

Being in the US illegally is a civil offence

It’s not a felony. It’s not a criminal offence

So why are so many people being violently rounded up & thrown in camps?

Racism & fascism

The DOJ admitted that only 2.5% of people arrested in Chicago raids had criminal records

Which means 97.5% did NOT

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson.

That's it.

That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

Remember: An estimated 70% of congressional Republicans may financially benefit from the tax cuts in their Big Ugly Bill.

While cutting Medicaid and food stamps for millions — including many of their own constituents — these lawmakers may be enriching themselves.

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

This immigration stuff from Labour is very brexity. The wrong choices for the wrong reasons which will have a negative impact on people and the economy to please morons who are in a state of permanent grievance.
It's unbearable watching Labour being so vile and stupid.
Starmer must go.

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.
