I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Don Jr receiving a massive loan for his startup from the Pentagon. I guess when there’s so much corruption some things fly under the radar?

The government claims it wants to stop small boats crossing the Channel, yet its new policies will make it harder for refugees to bring their spouses and children safely. This will push more women and children onto dangerous dinghies.

I asked the Home Secretary if this is really what she supports.

These unconscionable cuts to a vital lifeline fund for some of the most vulnerable children & young adults in England are staggering - a 60% reduction from £7.5K to just £3K per child & even worse - these changes were introduced by the government without consultation, warning and no evidence base
🚨This is not what I expect from a Labour government

The far right and Islamic extremists radicalise their base in the same way and fuel each other.

It is a cycle of hate and only punishing or focusing on one side will just make it worse.
