As this keeps coming up and my blocking finger’s getting a workout of late frankly,for the record this patriotic Welsh speaker, does not support Welsh independence or nationalism in any form. My views come from experience, I owe no one an explanation. I will not engage in debate on this subject.

Plans to leave refugees in a state of perpetual uncertainty about where and if they can rebuild their lives are not just performative cruelty, they are counterproductive to integration and the economy. It doesn’t have to be like this - 1/2

Labour MPs Get off X, Stop scapegoating start looking inward at what you are becoming, this is disgusting, this former member does not recognise you. Whomever is behind the madness I urge you to stop worrying about being behind Reform in the polls and start asking why you're also behind the Greens.
Confiscating jewellery from survivors of a war zone makes you look like a fucking Nazi. And the obscene thing is, that is the intention. It's there to look appropriately harsh. Indecent. Filthy. A moral stain. And no-one of good character would have ever proposed such a thing in the first place.

So fine, wait for the full details. But let's not pretend Mahmood's feeble little brief-the-Guardian-and-the-Mail gambit is balanced in some way. It is very lurid about the bits that appeal to Nazis and very subtle about the bits that appeal to liberals.

Could prob accept some pretty draconian small boat policies if there was a genuine safe route policy alongside it. So far we have no details at all.

The Government inherited an asylum system in meltdown, and had managed to at least get cases being processed again while ending the madness of the Rwanda plan. But the policies being announced today undermine all of that, making it harder for refugees to integrate and contribute to their communities

Enjoying a peaceful night of listening to the Cure whilst the other half reads his signed Garth Ennis 40k novel and I read my signed (still laugh when I read the message he wrote - I told him King Mob was hot) copy of Morisson's Supergods - a couple of geeky bookworms escaping reality on a Sunday.

Re-reading a gem. My fave is part is fearful symmetry, how DC went dark in the 80s under Frank Miller and Alan Moore and how thrillingly edgy the era was with the Grant Morrison at the wheel we go from Dark Knight Returns to Watchmen its one hell of a ride. If you love comics you need to read this.

Too few people are talking about the fact that for eight years (2011-2019), while Jeffrey Epstein was raping young girls and trafficking them to hundreds of other rapists from his home base in Palm Beach, Florida, the Florida district attorney was Pam Bondi. Connect the dots.
