I posted this in 2022. I think this is unlikely to happen because I have a feeling Labour won’t want to burn valuable political capital on what might feel like a niche issue. But that doesn’t change the fact that this is the right thing to do.

Decisions by immigration officers to admit people to the UK, even if on dubious legal grounds, do in fact mean those people have the right to live here, Court of Appeal holds bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/…

Important read. Just a shame the Home Office couldn’t have figured this out three months ago.

This isn’t some weird form of modern art. I just need to send this video, which is apparently massive in size, to my dishwasher technician and this was the quickest (though by no means the most elegant) way of doing so.

1041 days since the Taliban BANNED girls from school. Afghanistan is the ONLY country in the world where girls are barred from school & university. Day by day passes and women & girls are denied their basic human rights. Your silence makes you complicit.theguardian.com/global-develop…

A very interesting and thought-provoking piece by Adam King on the safety of Lucy Letby’s convictions.

It is regrettable that whoever wrote this thread did so in apparent ignorance of what the law actually says. It is really rather wildly misleading. [THREAD 🧵]

This has been enabled by years of politicians pumping out hate against “lefty lawyers”, spreading the message that there is something wicked and shameful in representing individuals against the state.

This 600-year-old painting is one of the most mysterious in history. That mirror at the back is just 3 inches wide — yet it reflects the entire room in immense detail. Look closer at it and you'll realize nothing is as it seems… (thread) 🧵

GUYS YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS “What do you want to replace the European Convention on Human Rights with?” “Good old domestic legislation… like the Human Rights Act 1998. It’s pretty good.”

Insanely proud to be ranked Tier 1 for Immigration in the South East by Legal 500, with Jo Renshaw, Tom Giles and Philip Turpin ranked as “leading partners”. Alex Piletska is also noted as a key lawyer. turpinmiller.co.uk/site/news-upda…

Delighted to be ranked by Chambers in Immigration. Tom Giles, a partner, and Alex Piletska, an “associate to watch” for the third year in a row, both ranked in Immigration. Laura Coyle, a partner, is also ranked in Social Housing. turpinmiller.co.uk/site/news-upda…

I know this is a long shot and the quality of the photos is terrible but does anyone know what these red and blue lights far away from my balcony might be? I swear they weren’t there when I moved in. They’re very tall? They don’t flash? They have an industrial feel to them?
