The stupidity of Farage’s latest ‘plan’ is staggering.
Claiming they’d save British taxpayers money by ripping up international commitments and starting a trade war with Europe is the puerile foot-stamp of a party that uses prejudice as policy. Ruinous nonsense.

Reform would ‘cut benefits for EU nationals and hike NHS immigration surcharge’
Party claims its policies would eliminate ‘black hole’ Rachel Reeves faces in the budget – but Labour says the ‘fantasy numbers don’t add up’

I'd love it if every time Reform talk about asylum seekers being a "danger to women and girls" someone could point out that 20% of Reform MPs have a conviction for assaulting a woman, so are statistically a FAR greater danger.

Any Labour MP with any conscience needs to get up and cross that floor.
This cannot be tolerated. It just can’t.
This isn’t a bit shady. This isn’t questionable. It isn’t uncomfortable. It’s full fat, over the line FACISM and you’re either part of it or you’re not.

A Government of cowards.
Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.
They can't get away with this.

Labour will never win a race to the bottom. Nor should they have ever tried to compete.
Xenophobia comes from the darkness of humanity. It poisons a society. To embrace it, whether through belief or political expediency, is to ignore history and where it will inevitably lead.

Shabana Mahmood has announced major changes to the UK’s asylum system.

What I do know is that despite a large amount of good things Labour are getting done, Shobana Mahmood is making it increasingly emotionally & practically difficult to try to defend them.
