Let asylum seekers work: it'll fix a few problems in our labour market, save taxpayers some cash and mean we don't need giant asylum sites like MOD Bicester. Or we could keep being performatively awful to asylum seekers for no benefit.

Most millennials don’t think there will be a state pension when they retire so this isn’t being done with them in mind Pensioners will gain more from free social care than a linking rise of state pension to earnings Proud of triple lock in coalition but we must plan for future not venerate the past

I spoke passionately at #ldconf on the need to sharply regulate AI, but I'm sad to say that not enough of the hall were convinced and the motion passed. I think in 20 years, when Gen Alpha enter the workforce and cannot even think for themselves, everyone will have always been against this.

Very pleased for @calummillerld.bsky.social who has just echoed Ed Davey's call for the ICC arrest warrant on Benjamin Netanyahu to be executed should he be in the UK, and correctly refers to the events in Gaza as a genocide.

Less than 2/3rds of the vote when you’re the incumbent, were until recently leading the national polls, your candidate is the party leader, are de facto running unopposed and are the only party actively campaigning and putting resources into the seat is pathetic and it’s stupid to pretend otherwise

I've long had the opinion that if any airport in the south of England was to expand it should be Gatwick. The rail link is there, the motorway link is there, there's significantly more space around the airport... It just makes more sense. Heathrow makes none.

Green text on white background says: NO TERFS & NO TURFS. In smaller text: Turn every golf course into a public park. Trans rights. Brought to you by the pro-trans anti-golf association. The “trans rights” is in a starburst.

Whenever I tell someone I'm working on a book their immediate question is 'whats it about'. Which is a very hard question to answer because that's very subjective. I have themes I've intended and there are several stories contained within the narrative. It's a matter of opinion.

If people had any sense they'd immediately stop wanting to vote for the lunatics whose headline policies are to cancel NetZero. But this is the UK so a sensible and reasonable evidence-based-thinking electorate is too much to ask for.
