It's going to be a long march back home to our European friends. So much damage has been done. However, the best time to start is today and the next best day is tomorrow.
Labour will never win a race to the bottom. Nor should they have ever tried to compete.
Xenophobia comes from the darkness of humanity. It poisons a society. To embrace it, whether through belief or political expediency, is to ignore history and where it will inevitably lead.

Shabana Mahmood has announced major changes to the UK’s asylum system.
"This isn’t just a moral failure, it’s a complete misreading of the political runes," writes Jessica Frank-Keyes.

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics.
He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist

Labour had a chance to reset the immigration debate by rejecting the arguments of the right, and setting out the positive benefits the vast majority of immigrants bring - and have brought - to our country. Instead Starmer chose the 'island of strangers' rhetoric.

This is an element of the migration/asylum plans I suspect quite a few Labour MPs will find hardest to sign up to: if you come to the UK as a refugee you can never make your life here, but only ever exist in a state of limbo.
Question on Monday
Is it now your principle that every Ukranian refugee in Britain should leave, must leave once it is safe + that they will all be made to leave?

There is a small subset of pro-Starmer ultras on here who either genuinely don’t understand that budget stories *are directly briefed out by the Treasury, with permission* or pretend not to know that. And so they claim the plans never existed, haven’t changed, etc. It is maddening, and dumb as fuck.

This. It's odd how Labour wants to appear businesslike, and yet there's not a business anywhere that avoids advertising itself whilst telling customers that their rivals have a good product.
Breaking the tax pledge is the right call...and politically sulphurous. Reeves must argue, far more forcefully, that taxes are *the* essential downpayment we all pay for a fairer society.
