I now want to look in more detail at Jenrick's nasty propaganda video. It starts with a few examples of cases to make people angry. But those examples are in fact irrelevant to the case he is trying to make. Jenrick has been an Immigration minister. He must know that the main

The way the ECHR is applied may at times irritate and as in all human affairs no court will always be perfect in its reasoning and decisions. But the ECHR has done immense good throughout Europe. Precisely because it is a " living instrument", it has been able to promote human

I'm in the 38%. Still can't countenance Labour's ridiculous Brexit stance. But I thought at the very least Starmer would bring in a new clean brand of politics, given that he made trust the centrepiece of his appeal and it seemed an obvious differentiator. Very disappointed.

I sorta don't care because they're all shits, but I do because it's still important to have the least shitty of the shits leading the party of opposition. And probs Cleverly is the least shit. The other two are objectively awful human beings.

Imagine a state hostile to the West demanded a hospital in a war zone empty all of its patients. Newborn babies in incubators. Pregnant women. The severely wounded. The unconscious. Those in ICU. It would lead the news as a hideous crime. But with Israel, it’s normalised.

So the Tory party has whittled it down to the 2 most dislikeable candidates they could find. A deeply arrogant belligerent bully and a grim opportunist who thinks goose-stepping off to the far right will give him power. No one responsible or decent votes for those two horrors.

They’re both just so astoundingly shit. Badenoch - an out-of-control fire hose of obnoxiousness. Jenrick - like some wannabe Bond villain seeking revenge on the world for the fact that no-one’s ever really liked him. That’s all the Tory party is now. Nasty inadequacy.

This chart is a scandal. Teachers, doctors and others earning fairly ordinary salaries can face marginal tax rates of more than 60%, and sometimes approaching 80%. Rachel Reeves should reform income tax. Thread:

I think it'd be helpful if journalists talked a little less about imaginary Taylor Swift conspiracies & a little more about the policy developments happening in front of their face. For more on this radical & earth-shattering idea, read the newsletter... tinyurl.com/yetmzbe8

Of course on #r4today “balance” is a man who thinks we should stop the boats through “deterrent” deportations v Yvette Cooper who thinks we should do it by arresting our way out of reality. The two options according to our media. & we wonder why people keep dying year on year🤷‍♀️

Zoe Gardner (@zoejardiniere) 's Twitter Profile Photo

How we could change our approach to immigration always shrunk to two brutal, expensive, FAILED sides of the same “stop the boats” coin. No one on #r4today is interested in whether we could save money for our communities by HELPING those 30,000 people. But many of the public are.

Meanwhile the death rate has soared. It’s like Labour had one good week with the budget & decided, nah, they’d prefer to keep feeding support to Farage. So they’re back to banging the Tories’ same old drum, demonising people for seeking the safety & opportunity we have #r4today

Never gonna outdo the Tories or Farage with this rhetoric so why continue it? Reestablish a sensible Asylum policy for refugees with safe routes and there'll be no further demand for these gangs.

Is it sinking in yet, Clacton? Parliament is sitting and this feckless simpering prick is paid by our taxes to be an MP, yet spends his time taking huge sums to spread propaganda for GB News, whilst desperately blowing on the balls of rapey convict, Trump, at any opportunity.
