How many times does it have to be said before the government pays attention? "Deterrents" don't work. If you want to cut channel crossings it needs to be done by making it easier to reach the UK and access the asylum system. 1/

Removing carrier liability fines would be a great start, these are what airlines, ferries, Eurostar etc may have to pay if they are found to have facilitated the transportation of someone without correct visas. 2/
Fairly obviously refugees don't often get the chance to apply for a visa and then wait around for it to be issued when fleeing for their lives, so being prevented from reaching the UK via more "normal" routes forces them into having to rely on smugglers. 3/

Electability - Truss.
@trussliz is genuine, likeable, humble, and gets things done.
She will not be pilloried and pursued relentlessly by the press for who she is.

Policy - Truss
@trussliz has the best plans to take our country forward with growth, dynamism and opportunity.
She will not tax, spend and run up debt choking growth like Gordon Brown with added privileged guilt.

Leadership - Truss
@trussliz will lead by doing at home and abroad.
She and her government will use the civil service thoughtfully to make change.
She won't be blinkered and controlled by convention, orthodoxy and dogma.

A game-changing moment for @trussliz.
Rishi thought he'd set a clever trap, but instead presented her with an open goal. Watch the smile, the stiffness disappear, the fluency emerge, the passion grow. That's #LizForLeader authenticity. She needs to find more of that.

Appended for those (esp. Labour MPs) who say @trussliz was educated under the Conservatives, so she's trashing Thatcher/Major.

It was to liberate schools from local authorities who were failing generations of children that Thatcher/Baker introduced Grant Maintained schools.
Labour came to agree, and adopted this model to establish City Academies.
The Tory/LibDem Coalition expanded academisation further.
