On hold to my mobile phone provider and 10 out 10 would recommend their on hold music
Might ask if they do a compilation CD if they ever answer
Okay, after 20 minutes even the on hold music is starting to drag
Who puts their on hold music on a loop which is too short for the on hold time? Losing points rapidly here for the music
They ended the call. Nearly 45 minutes on hold and they ended the call without connecting me to anyone. Guess that answers whether I am upgrading with @VodafoneUK or moving to a new provider at the end of this month.

THREAD: Okay, so why is it important to distinguish between Patel being at raid on people alleged to be involved in smuggling and trafficking, and Patel being at an immigration raid? I mean either way she's doing it for PR purposes to show she is tough on immigration right? 1/
Of course she, and it would naïve to think this didn't have anything to do with recent public displays of support for migrants, or her own issues with being accused of breaching the Ministerial Code, but there is a secondary issue here. 2/
Immigration is a highly charged subject, to put it politely.
Only a couple of days ago @jameskirkup wrote a piece, which I admit to having a number of disagreements with, regarding how and why migrants' rights advocates keep losing on issues. 3/

What has really gotten to me recently is how few people seem prepared to step up and call out anti-semitism. Actually, let's be honest it's not just a recent thing. It's as if they think that doing so will be taken as support for the actions of Israel. 1/ hrw.org/news/2021/05/1…
It's not though. You can, and I personally think should, call out the actions of Israel as a nation state, while still standing by Jews against anti-semitism. You can't claim to defend human rights and then either attack or ignore another marginalised group. 2/
We see this type of action constantly though, and let's be honest it's exactly the same with Islamophobia etc. People who conflate the actions of some with the existence of everyone who is even tangentially linked by religion, race, culture etc. 3/

I highly recommend reading both these threads by @AlasdairMack66 and @ZoeJardiniere. Anti-immigration sentiments have been softening for years, yet migrants rights advocates are constantly told they need to listen to "legitimate concerns". 1/
If a concern is to be considered "legitimate" though it needs to be based on fact and not opinion. Anti-immigration views rarely, if ever, are supported by fact. As advocates we do need to engage on an emotional level, rather than just throwing out evidence. 2/
I believe in open borders, however I acknowledge they're not likely to happen in the near future and won't work unless they are accepted globally. Under those circumstances it should, ironically, be free market libertarians who defend them most vociferously. 3/
