Okay, but this tragedy has happened right now under Starmer's Labour.
Warning - post about suicide.
An Indian doctor in the UK killed himself because he was petrified of being deported; having been so in the past.
This tragedy will become more commonplace if Farage et al come to power.

Since we released this @johnsweeneyroar.bsky.social documentary two years ago, more information has come to light that Boris Johnson went to this meeting to discuss a 'backchannel' to Putin with Alexander Lebedev, who was working for the Kremlin in Crimea at the time

US military law states one MUST disobey illegal orders.
It gives an example of murdering the shipwrecked.
It warns of the penalty of death specifically for this crime.
Those giving these orders are guilty under this law.
Those complicit in these acts or following these orders are also guilty.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.
