All this, not to deal with a “national emergency” (it isn’t, and if it were, this is a ridiculously expensive and marginal attempt to deal with it) but to allow doomed Conservative candidates in 2024 to put flights to Rwanda on their election leaflets as one, lonely, “success”.

This Rwanda Bill makes (Global) Britain remarkably small on the world stage.
The hypocrisy in demanding other countries abide by international law, whilst the UK tries to sneak out of its own obligations, will damage both the UK & the international system it purports to uphold.

Sat reviewing board & card games trying to evaluate if they’ll trigger the (easily triggered conservative) family who’ve invited themselves over for Xmas.
Don’t want to end up playing trivial pursuit (causes arguments) or sodding uno (I loath it).
Game suggestions welcome!

The ERG, what a nasty bunch of rats in the sack they are. As if Rwanda scheme wasn't batshit awful enough already, they are upping the ante over Human rights act & European convention on human rights. I hope they shred each other.

The government has just sneaked in legislation enabling it to monitor bank accounts of anyone claiming the state pension.
Done without effective scrutiny.
Labour MP Steven Timms points out this can only be for future means-testing of the state pension.

Could 'carbon passports' that limit how much we travel be in our future?
The concept would give travelers a limited carbon footprint for transportation each year. In reality, sustainability-travel experts say, it'd be hard to implement and there are better solutions.
