Love this article - you'll all have heard the pandemonium when small villages were told they were going to be overrun with foreign asylum seekers 😱😱

What did all that amount to? Oh, a whole load of no problems at all. Shocker.

My report in tomorrow’s Guardian on the disability benefit cuts “domino effect”: losing PIP will see unpaid carers lose their benefits too - pulling away two main strands of a family’s income at once. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

‘Carpetbagging’ was a pejorative term for vulture capitalists who bought property cheaply in the defeated US Southern states. (They carried contracts around in bags made of carpet material). Today, their successors gather around Trump & Musk for the 🇺🇸 sell off.
