What gets me about the Kebatu case is that he's being described as a dangerous individual on the run when in fact he was a confused man (yes, a convicted one) with nowhere to go. He wanted to be deported back to Ethiopia and had asked when it would happen. Then he was released and a 'manhunt' ensued

The way to answer "has anybody done this since Idi Amin in 1972" would be for Conservatives to name a democratic government that revoked permanent settlement to remove legal rights & then deported, expelled those people. Important they get asked to give the counter-example to "since Idi Amin"

David is slightly unfair. There is a clear difference here. Conservatives and Reform plan to forcibly expel large numbers of people who are legal, permanent residents of migrant origin. The BNP proposal is voluntary.

You can’t solve the political mania of nationalist xenophobia with marginal policy changes. Or major policy changes. Or anything. Most xenophobia is based on lies or hallucinations. But even where immigration critics have a point, addressing their point doesn’t seem to reduce xenophobia. 1/9

While today he presents himself as the defender of Palestinians under Israeli bombardment, the Russian intervention in Syria was supported by Labour’s former leader Jeremy Corbyn, and his director of communications Seamus Milne. This is why Syrians continue to despise him. bsky.app/profile/ozka...

there's a tendency in parts of the left to believe that 'community' is the answer to everything but communities are often horrendous!

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain. They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city. Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

A lot of sensible people get squeamish at labelling Nigel Farage “far-right”, but his policy of cancelling the legal status of tens of thousands of settled immigrants can not be politically described as anything else. Reform are campaigning on a policy of cruelty & xenophobia.

Starmer has pulled out all the stops to flatter and impress Trump, but still hasn’t managed to get him to drop his damaging tariffs, take on Putin or tell Netanyahu to stop waging genocide. It’s time for the UK to stand tough with allies who share our values.

Look I know it's a sjot inheritance and we have deep rooted structural economic and political problems and switching PMs won't solve them. But saying "fascist hooliganism is bad and we're gonna nick the culprits" is the easy part, and yet he is just. Not. Doing. It.

The licence fee needs to be automatically collected by pay TV providers, not these wannabe bailiff cunts. If I need a licence to watch Virgin Media or Sky, why would it bother me more to pay them instead of TV Licensing?

These dumb pricks have now been sending me threatening letters with fake rubber stamps for over a year. In July I also received a Direct Debit confirmation for the coming year. Can't wait for them to send someone so I can tell them that I do indeed watch live TV.

So much about this story is depressing to me, from the mad understanding of “how the development of racist thought works” from someone who once got this stuff and who should have been allowed a dignified exit, to the way v few official responses even bother to mention racism against GRT people.

Air conditioning is an absolutely vital life-saving technology on a swiftly-warming planet, and people who claim it's somehow more shameful to cool a home than it is to heat one are idiots. I wrote this a few years ago and still stand by it: foreignpolicy.com/2022/01/16/c...
