When the Labour Party is supremely unpopular who on earth thought it a good idea to wheel out Maurice Glasman to be interviewed on Newsnight.

Good news. Residents have been campaigning against this development for over 2 years. We have far too many of these unaffordable tower blocks in Harrow. The pretence that they contain affordable homes is nothing short of criminal.

People coming to the UK on boats to claim asylum are not ‘illegals’. Either these politicians are not very bright or they are deliberately misleading the public to stir up racist hatred. Ask your MP which one they are when they next spout this nonsense.

In 1999 the Court of Appeal found the then Labour Home Secretary Jack Straw had acted unlawfully in ordering asylum seekers to be returned to France snd Germany as they did not adequately protect asylum seekers from non state persecution.

Forcing those fleeing persecution to sell their jewellery is not a new concept for Labour. Back in 1999 Mike O’Brien Home Office Minister wanted to seize jewellery including the wedding rings of asylum seekers to offset the cost of their support.

I have worked with asylum seekers for over 30 years and witnessed successive governments scapegoat this vulnerable group. The lie that asylum seekers are responsible for the housing, health and financial crisis we are in is why we are heading for a Reform Government.

These are the real villains in the asylum process. But our media and politicians largely ignore how we are ripped off by billionaires because they are themselves in hock to the Billionaires. British asylum housing tycoon breaks into Sunday Times rich list theguardian.com/business/artic…

Yet another person has tragically died after falling from the St Georges multi storey car park in Harrow. When on earth is something going to be done to prevent further such tragedies. Boy, 17, dies after falling from shopping centre mylondon.news/news/west-lond…

I grew up listening to Jimmy Cliff blaring out of a Harlesden record shop. It gave me a life long love of Ska “And I keep on fighting for the things I want. Though I know that when you’re dead you cant. But I'd rather be a free man in my grave. Than living as a puppet or a slave”

The wonderful Jimmy Cliff once explained his dislike for politicians stating that he "looked up the meaning of politics" and concluded that "poli means people and tics is a bloodsucking parasite".  Very sad to hear that he has crossed over.

For politicians like Badenoch who either don’t understand the laws they pass or deliberately mislead the public. Benefits are capped. A jobless couple or lone parent living outside London have their benefit capped at £22,020 a year and in London it’s capped at £25,323 a year.

The Israeli Government must be held to account. No matter how long it takes. We must never forget the brutality, the obscene targeting of children, journalists and doctors. We must never forget our politicians supported their war crimes.

We have such great activists in Harrow. The first Arise canvassing session today. Even the rain could not dampen our spirits. If you want to get involved give Arise Harrow a follow.

The Kenova Final Report published today confirms the criminality of the British State in Ireland (torture, murder and collusion). Millions spent on an inquiry yet no one held accountable. psni.police.uk/sites/default/…
