"Today marks the end of my automatic rights in a country I've called home for over 30 years. I am now at the mercy of political promises and Home Office processes... my status HAS changed. My heart is heavy."
So quit the bumptious self-satisfied smiling, will you, and accept some responsibility for damaging the lives of people who have had rights to live, work and love freely across 28 EU countries taken away from them.
By your government.
@annietrev Finally, @annietrev, here are some reflections just today from people whose lives have been damaged by destruction of FoMP, and #EUSS.
@David_Cameron .@campbellclaret on #Newsnight, saying that Johnson and his ministers regularly break all 7 of the #NolanPrinciples - and he finds it "scary" that no one seems, with this government, to care very much about those breaches of public standards, or to view them as scandals.
@David_Cameron@campbellclaret Prof Elizabeth David-Barrett says on #Newsnight that the matters around Cameron/Arcuri are not so much about rule-breaking as "declining [public] standards".
And she gives examples, including those around (lack of) transparency.
@pritipatel@TomTugendhat The only reason Patel may have some support across parts of the Tory bedrock vote, despite her incompetence and bullying, is that her unremitting xenophobia appeals to part of that increasingly UKIPified constituency.
