As ICE officers conducted a series of raids targeting Latino communities in Los Angeles, reality star Phil “Dr. Phil” McGraw embedded with immigration officials. Later, Merit TV announced in a press release that its footage will be aired throughout a “2-Night Television Event."
The Trump Administration Is Turning ICE Raids and Protests Into Reality TV
Whether creating its own memes or working with celebrities like "Dr. Phil" McGraw, the government is treating a volatile situation in Los Angeles like content.

You could also disgrace yourself by running interference in the commons while your boss bullied the speaker into abandoning the rules so his party wouldn't be embarrassed by not calling out war crimes.

The leader of a UK government that was elected on the votes of less than 1/3rd of voters is telling the 54% of Scots who support independence that he won’t ‘let’ us vote on our own future. UK ‘democracy’ is broken.

“If the people of Scotland return an SNP government, regardless if it’s a minority or majority, then that would be a mandate for a second referendum. It’s not up to the likes of me who live in England. This is the decision for the people of Scotland to make.” Starmer, STV, 2025. What a hypocrite.

Never asks what we want - just tells us what we're "allowed".

You noticed Starmer seems a lot more comfortable being a reactionary cunt? Like it's the first time he's ever been himself in years?
What an utterly repugnant little man.

What's the point of a Scottish Labour leader if they're going to ditch decades of party policy the moment No 10 asks them to?

There's a reason Welsh Labour - whose leader has all but condemned Starmer's speech - have lasted longer in power than Scottish Labour did.
BREAKING: Anas Sarwar has backed Keir Starmer's plans to restrict immigration.

While Sarwar would not back Starmer's "island of strangers" comment, he said migration must come down "across the board".

Keir Starmer denies pushing anti-migrant policies in order to chase Reform, saying that "I'm doing this because it is right, because it is fair and because it is what I believe".

A reminder of what he said he believed when he was running for Labour leader.

The UK will never reform itself. Every few years, Scotland waits. For the next Westminster government. The next opportunity. The next promise.

But nothing changes.

Because we don’t decide our future — we wait to be told it.
Time to stop waiting. Time to start building.

Sorry BBC - why are you stating an economic opinion as fact?

"Higher pay and benefits drives government borrowing higher"

No. Neoliberal greed, lack of investment, and giving national assets to private wealth.

Shameful gaslighting from the BBC.
