UKIP/Reform/Farage damaged the economy with Brexit, now destroying the NHS.
The UK is an ageing society, without immigration the economy can't function. Will we ever get an honest debate?

On average, every 4 years, the ECHR stops the UK removing 1 foreign person.
They want you to demand we leave the ECHR because of this.
I've being saying "told you so" about Brexit for a decade. Don't let them do it to you again. Please listen this time.....

Asylum-seeking is a global phenomenon, with 8.4M AS in 2024 of whom 110K sought AS in the UK & 32K are currently housed in over 200 hotels dispersed around the country. There are issues about that, including for ASs themselves, but the attempt to turn it into a national crisis is a disgrace. 2/3

Not even 9am. So far on Radio 6, the news bulletins have featured a mother saying her daughters aren't safe because of asylum seekers, a Tory politician lambasting Labour for crossing numbers & Badenoch encouraging councils to lodge legal challenges against hotels. An endless stream of hateful bile.

Is this the kernel of the problem? Is it the unwillingness to acknowledge that Europe is a legitimate world actor. At this point, it's a hang-up
And is that reflex rejection what is actually stopping the UK moving towards Europe?
