So they're at it again 🙄 Torturing valid HMRC data to create wildly misleading headlines, designed to invoke fear and anger about immigrants. Same old, same old... (and you'll see just how old shortly!) 🧵1/28
Daily Mail Front Page headline:

4 out of 5 new jobs went to foreigners in the past decade.

What I like about how Burnham communicates is that he's just stopped talking about Reform. Starmer had got into a cycle of bringing them up and then the media would ask them for a response. And so it went on. Burnham has starved them of that oxygen.

This is undisguised racism. It’s not about “concerned citizens” or “legitimate concerns”, it’s pure naked racism.

The last time I went to Corfe Castle there was a shop across from the National Trust cafe with golliwogs in the window. It also had an article taped up in the window of an interview they gave to the local newspaper justifying why they had golliwogs in the window.

Suella Braverman selling 106 copies of her book after all that publicity is so delicious.
Crack 'em while you can, though, because Suella's star might just be on the skids. Despite plugging her book on Question Time, on Tim Shipman's Spectator podcast, in serialised excerpts in the Daily Mail, and in a fawning interview with Allison Pearson in the Telegraph, in its opening weekend, Patriot sold precisely 106 copies.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.
