This Brexiteer lives in LA, has never been a poor anything, and there are zero consequences for his actions on him.

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.

The home secretary will announce a range of tough new measures aimed at making the UK a less attractive destination for asylum seekers.

It certainly looks less attractive to me!

Feeling physically sick to hear on the news Shabana Mahmood saying that “illegal migration is tearing the country apart” which she must know is not true. What’s “tearing the country apart” is the cynical entrepreneurs of fear and hate who have gleefully pushed this non-issue.

It appears that our Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has been inspired by Kirsti Noem - and finds her to have an “under appreciated intellect and eye for detail” and is now following her lead.

Isn’t that just utterly horrifying.

Of all Starmer’s picks for cabinet, she has to be the worst.

Labour concocts more ugly measures to punish asylum seekers and the right immediately demands worse… howling to leave the ECHR.
This scapegoating of migrants must stop. It is failure - morally and practically.

The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right.

There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture

We relied on America for so long, took its friendship for granted for so long that we simply never saw this coming. The US under Trump has gone rogue and is no longer our friend. It is no-one's friend. More frighteningly, it could easily turn into our worst enemy imaginable.

Farage earns more than any other MP for NOT being an MP. He says it’s “obviously sad” that part of his constituency is the most deprived area in England.
But everything he’s ever done, said and wanted has made sure of it.
This is the whole country if he gets into power.

The United States on Monday conducted its 20th strike on an alleged "drug trafficking boat", a Pentagon official said on Thursday.

"The strike occurred in the Caribbean and four narco-terrorists were killed, no survivors," the official said.
