Unfortunately politicians are untouchable. How the trove of Tory MP's all walked away with the ex PM allowances is an affront. The conservative party should be made to foot the bill for the freeloaders.

Was Gove speaking to the BBC per chance?

Surprised ICE didn't lift Ronaldo at the airport.

Out exploring yesterday and lost data connection on my phone for a couple of hours. Had to use a paper map to get around a city I was unfamiliar with! Useful skill for an old fart.

Brexit was supposed to be short term pain...as we held all the cards. Ten years on the pain is like a knife under the fingernails, zero benefits, of course the wealthy did alright whilst the rest of us predictably got the shitty end of the stick.

My wife would fall into this category, she came to the UK in 1969. She doesn't get a full state pension, like most women of her age, she took time out to raise a family. Paradoxically her daughter will vote for Farage. We have plans to leave the UK if the electorate are stupid enough to vote him in.

There was a perception (mistakenly) on my behalf that Labour once elected would fix the immigration system and deal with cases quickly, allowing asylum seekers to become productive members of society quickly. What they are suggesting is hideous.

Maybe Shabana Mahmood should reflect on the company she has joined over the immigration debate...Braverman and Patel, it is difficult to square the circle on why these women have such a negative attitude towards immigrants.

Wow, that was a serious kicking offence in the British Armed Forces if you let the flag touch the ground.

That's f'ing funny to me and I'm from the other side of the pond 😂

Unbelievable from Mahmood, immigration is a talking point for the right. Most people don't have a problem with immigration, we know it's necessary for our economy and our future. The conservatives allowed regular migration to get out of hand.

Labour are unrecognisable from their roots, the founders would be horrified that they have morphed the party into a lightweight right-wing party. I really hope the Greens have a candidate at the next election locally. My town will be a target for Reform unfortunately.

Trump sending out the 'will anyone rid me of this troublesome priest' vibes, but without the remorse when the act is carried out. Dangerous times for anyone who stands up against this megalomaniac. Let's face it, the MAGA movement are bona fide fascists/Nazis.

Doesn't the Slovenian Pencil spend most of her time in NYC?

I'm sure the EU would open their arms to the world's 6th biggest economy. The main obstacle to get things moving forward from within the UK is from those who control the media and ergo the narrative. Given the opportunity to vote the majority would be for. Death of the £ would be a major factor.

I read that 65000 are now incarcerated in ICE facilities. Who are the people who own these facilities? Who are the people that work in these facilities? It's about accountability from the top to the bottom, people know they are doing wrong. The big & small cogs will have to answer .

You lot at the FT have been promoting the story. Shite journalism from the FT.

The Trumps make a living out of suing people. By the way how is the case brought by the #Slovenianpencil going? Wasn't she after a $Billion as well, seems to be the going rate for Trump Crime Family Inc .

I have never heard anyone saying “I read that “<xyz>” on X, absolutely no one. The only people that push X are media companies and useless politicians.
