Like everything BOJO touched. Even his beloved Brexit was a shambles built on lies and for which he didn’t do any work to prepare for such a fundamental change. And look at the disaster it has become. He is nothing but a spoilt little rich boy with no values other than self promotion.

Dunno about you but I can live happily without hourly BBC updates on prisoners released in error
There’s tens of thousands of criminals with live arrest warrants at large across UK that haven’t been caught yet..
BBC aren’t interested in those.. because they don’t know how many are migrants 🤷🏼♂️

People have long argued that Brexit - mainly engineered by Cummings and Farage/Bannon - was actually a racist project, and little to do with sovereignty
I think the current configuration of Cummings/Farage/Bannon has proved them right.

The whiter the area the more likely it is to have a Reform problem. Immigration isn’t the problem, otherwise you’d get Reform in more diverse areas - it’s fear of change among older people.

Katie Lam, the shadow home secretary saying legal migrants need to be deported (The Times) will be seen by many as the most racist comment we’ve heard in recent years. Why this isn’t headline news is scandalous. Which will translate to many as acceptance and agreement. Britain needs to get a grip.
