The people who say that their main concern is integration of refugees and migrants should be particularly happy today at her success in integrating. But I suspect they are very angry instead. It's almost as if the integration arguments are often made in bad faith.

My thoughts; 1) That Zionism motion is frankly bizarre and should be reversed. Israel is currently genocidal but supporting a Jewish state is in itself not racism, especially amongst those who oppose Netanyahu's government. 2) I don't think Labour would be willing to work with the Greens anyway.

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase tell me that all those "you should need a government ID to access the internet" people are rethinking this position now. [We know they aren't. Ed.]

The first two paragraphs of the linked-to story:

"Denmark has suffered a major data breach that has given unauthorised individuals access to names, addresses and personal identification numbers belonging to about 8.8 million people registered in the country’s central population database.

"The breach occurred after unidentified individuals misused a private Danish company’s legitimate access to search the Central Person Register (CPR), the government said in a statement Monday."

A knock on side effect is the blockage of in-game chat, and on all but the most recent versions of Minecraft, server commands in multiplayer. I had to install a mod to restore that basic functionality. I refuse to give my ID to third-parties I don't trust, just to use the Minecraft chat.

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.

This seemingly idiotic Piddington bullshit needs to be called out for what it is, rather than as some justifiable act of communal victimhood. And any responsible govt minister and media outlet would say so too. Nothing ‘legitimate’ about this. Just nasty prejudice thinking it’s got a point.

If that sounds crude, it's because the politics of this are very crude and we should be clearer about what these people are really saying.
It is essential to the anti-refugee right that asylum seekers are never presented as desperate people in need of help, but instead as an invasion force. That is where the language of fighting-age men and sexual violence comes from. We barely even notice it anymore, but our entire narrative around asylum has shifted into an invasion storyline, which even a few years ago was only heard in the wilder territories of the far right.

So instead she does what Labour ministers did under Kier Starmer and will now evidently do under Andy Burnham, and pretends that all this ignorant zombified racist Facebook tosh is, in fact, reasonable and valid.
If only our problems could be solved by ushering this village out of the UK and putting it into some kind of international quarantine zone. But unfortunately, they can't, because there is nothing special about Piddington. It is consuming the same poisoned media diet as the rest of the country and parroting the same toxic lies.
It can be stopped of course. But that means we have to challenge it, rather than pay lip-service to it.
