Labour MP Steve Witherden tells Shabana Mahmood that her plans to make refugees wait 20 years to apply for permanent status is "deeply concerning"

"Our government should lead with compassion and fairness, not forcing some of the most vulnerable in our society to live in limbo for two decades"

So proud of our flagship Kent Council, who cut wasteful spending by painting yellow lines outside a school that has been closed for nine years.

The sheer greasy desperation from these bastards that any violent crime is committed by an immigrant so they can continue their grift. Even when they know it isn't true. Foul.
Matt Goodwin attributes a crime that he now knows appears to have been committed by people born in Britain in the early 1990s to "mass uncontrolled immigration"

If you're around 35 or under in the UK, the government has never made anything better for you. Tuition fees brought in, stagnating wages from frozen tax brackets etc. An entire adult life of austerity with another decade ahead

Horrific, horrific news from Alder Hey in Liverpool.

And I’m already seeing anti-vax nonsense in response to this tragic news on social media. We are living in such dangerous times.

The child, who has not been formerly identified, is only the second to have died due to measles in the UK in the past decade

I hear Reform UK are campaigning in Scotland today. It would be tragic if this went viral again... ~AA
The expanded video of that Richard Tice car crash, during Reform UK's launch in Scotland, is somehow even funnier with subtitles.

- "John and Ross."
- "What councils are they from?"
- "John and Ross. Next question?" ~AA

What George doesn't understand is that in the UK, we decided in 2020 that 'governing' was actually a tedious distraction from 'speculating about, and positioning for, the next general election'. It's core to our culture and it is *very* disrespectful to criticise it.
this is a very strange message from Starmer. First, you're boosting the far right which is, uh, risky. Second, your government was elected LAST YEAR why are you talking like the election campaign is under way?!?!!

I'd never have put VAT on private school fees if I'd known it would lead to some families struggling to afford five holidays a year.

Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around.

They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway.

It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

And politically stupid, too. Alienates core vote (& they do have places to go) in pursuit of votes he'll rarely get, & demolishes his core policy agenda of growth, making his re-election more unlikely. Even those (inc. me) willing to cut him a lot of slack feel betrayed. A truly awful day for UK.

A question that I haven't heard a good answer to: if cutting migration by a third in a year hasn't changed the narrative on it at all - what would make you think cutting it by another third (or half] would?
Immigration fell by a third in the 9 months after General Election. (From 1.2m visas to 800k in year to March 2025). The new lower headline migration figure (the 12 months of 2024) will come out 10 days after the white paper. Saying net migration is 700k (last stat: year to June 2024) is out of date
