I work with Alf Dubs. Former journalist but now mostly doing politics. I'm writing a book. I love Italy. (Melons aside). Always European.
The other place got nasty. Refugees are welcome.
It means "no thanks"

Wissam's brother Abdul yesterday got to fulfil his lifelong dream of watching The Gunners play. And he met the players afterwards!
Thanks to
@arsenalfc.bsky.social for making a little boy - who has been through so much - feel happy and welcome in the UK

Lord Dubs says the move is "small-minded" and "belittles our own status as a country".

Stella Creasy says it will leave refugees paying taxes with no representation, as they will be barred from voting.
