This is a lie.
There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.
But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Is there a reason I ask that the Times are using a picture of asylum seekers in a boat to describe rules for migrants who came on legal routes such as skilled worker visas for doctors?
Tough new conditions to be imposed on migrants who want to settle in the UK will not apply to more than a million people who arrived in the UK under the post-Brexit immigration surge
Labour’s tough new rules will not apply to migrants already in UK

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

The UN still hasn't declared Israel is committing genocide - it's a commission of inquiry, meaning it is an independent mandated fact-finding report. The UN itself are yet to use the word genocide. We can't stop pressuring them to do so.

Graham Linehan's arrest was the good news we needed today, but it needs to be reported as "suspicion of inciting hate", instead of "just three X tweets". When people feel comfortable typing hate on their keyboards, you soon see others emboldened to burn down asylum hotels. It's never just tweets.

I mentor young queer migrant students, who have talked to me about the apprehension they feel when applying for graduate visas. Now this is another hit on their anxiety.
But why do bright young people have to take their skills and dreams elsewhere? What are we gaining by losing them?
