The United States was the leading destination for top scientists from all over the world.
That is ending. Politicians ended it. It will cripple our future competitiveness.
And it’s such a bitter tragedy. Almost no Americans, Conservative or Liberal, grasp what is now being stolen from them.

It’s the extraordinary mix of people and ideas, that has evolved not just over centuries but over millennia, that has created our British culture today. It’s what has stopped a tiny island on the periphery of Europe stagnating. It has created its energy, its vitality, its greatness.

They had a full day to craft this statement and they still couldn’t bring themselves to say “this is unconscionable and we would never change the rules on people in this way” without adding the rider “as long as they deserve it”. Who is this even for?
“We welcome those who come to this country, legally, and give more than they take. We believe the right to stay here must not be automatic, but that those who play their part should be able to earn that right."

The serious point here is that Britain is in desperate need of migrants, and any attempt to actively dissuade them from coming directly harms both society and the economy.

Wow. Robert Jenrick doubles down by branding a black journalist's questions "ridiculous" and saying that the problem is not his comments, but "journalists like you who pop up and try to knock me down", adding that "this is the reason why terrorist attacks happen". ~AA

The fundamental contradiction at the heart of Western exceptionalism is the seething, spitting hatred of the racialized Other whose exploitation Western society is built on.
It's what leads to absurdities like asking the people whose labor powers your society to prove they're not burdens.

Just fuck off with this. How about start the conversation by highlighting how much immigrants contribute to the UK - not least by propping up the NHS and social care system!
Also - forced volunteering is not volunteering, it's unpaid labour.

All political tribes can be hypocritical but the right's current level of hypocrisy on free speech is deliberate. It's an assertion of power not a blindspot.
