‘Fishy’ suggests a suspicious mystery. This is just naked corruption and fraud.

This is *not* the result of "the success of Mahmood's reforms", but of earlier measures/other factors. Her proposals could make it considerably *worse* in future years. A few other points linked below.. archive.ph/0psJ8

Falling migration numbers could cost the chancellor as much as £7bn in fiscal headroom as he writes his first budget, The Times has been told.

Government insiders believe that John Healey, who already faced an uphill battle to balance the books next month, is likely to have an even bigger challenge after immigration significantly undershot projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).

The Institute for Fiscal Studies think tank estimated last month that the success of Shabana Mahmood’s reforms, which have seen net migration cut to the low hundreds of thousands, could cost Healey some £4bn.

Labour sources familiar with the budget process, however, said that the figure was now closer to £6.5bn. The OBR’s migration forecasts have been consistently higher than real numbers in recent years.

Treasury officials, who have long expected Mahmood’s reforms to cause a hit to headroom, described the number as “pure speculation” but did not deny that Healey would have to contend with a larger funding gap than expected because of falling migration

Stop calling it a climate problem. Call it what it is: organized greed. The planet isn’t dying. It’s being killed for profit. The killers have names. And boardrooms. #ClimateJustice #StopEcocide

The RNLI has said the abuse of volunteers in Portsmouth has forced it to close the lifeboat station there and stop operating since September 10. Nearby stations have been providing cover to the area instead. One of the UK's largest coastal cities without a lifeboat because of the far-right.

“When so many of your leadership group and members have criminal convictions including for violent crimes against women and children, and when you can’t quite agree on the extent of violent racist bigotry and white supremacy you support, it’s best to have plenty of alternative back up plans.”

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

And as has consistently been the case with the Marshall Islands and US testing , successive U.K. governments have treated the people of Kiribati grievously affected by U.K. nuclear tests with even greater contempt than the appalling neglect meted out to British servicemen.

Because most immigrants arrive during their working years, the UK does not pay for their childhood education and early healthcare. This makes working-age arrivals net contributors on average. You do understand how averages work ?

John Holborow @johnholborow.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) models that a migrant that makes a similar amount to the average Briton will contribute nearly £500,000 more in taxes than they receive in benefits.

Given that immigrants put more into our economy than they take and enrich our culture yes please. We desperately need immigrants. Those whining that they’re ’not racist’ but terrified of immigrants , and claiming our best hope are corrupt racist liars, bring no discernible value to this country
