The illegality of UK immigration is BECAUSE of the Tories.

The Rwanda policy breaks international law and encourages asylum seekers to go into hiding.

Does the UK take in its fair share of refugees?
Nope.

91% of those crossing the Channel are from countries where there's a legitimate reason to flee.

And that data is based on GOVERNMENT figures obtained by FOI.

In Sep 2018 80+% Labour members wanted a 2nd referendum & demanded it at conference.

The leadership diluted the policy so much that in Apr 2019 they were still opposing it, so people didn't trust Labour on Brexit at the election.

NOW 80+% of Labour members want Voting Reform.😬
Don't believe me?

Here's the proof!
September 2018.

Labour's best chance of winning is an electoral pact based on voting reform, and they expelled me for saying so.

I hope the winners of the NEC elections will be less tribal...So that the mere mention of the fact that a pact might help the other parties isn't treated as betrayal. ImageImage
Really?
You're asking ME that question?

I received my membership card in Jan 2020. My offending tweet was in 7 February.

So why did Labour decide to cancel my membership at 01.51am 24 March, 8 hours after the 1st lockdown was announced?

Congrats!

You just demonstrated what's wrong with UK politics.

Your party gaining power is "all you're interested in". Never mind the "issues" (which affect millions of people).

Thanks for keeping politics confrontational and elitist.

This week's episode is about why you should have HOPE despite the really depressing news cycle:

UK Politics has reversed since 2016.
WE are the ones offering to improve people's lives now!

Can we talk about how INSANE this is?

The Tories took us out of the EU, so we now have to do (by ourselves) all the things we used to do together as 28 countries sharing the load (e.g. trade negotiations, GPS systems etc).

And now they're saying we need a SMALLER civil service!
The idea that you can leave a shared administration of 28 countries, so that you can do everything by yourself, but expect to save money and resources is just madness.

Bus vs Taxi

I explained this a long time ago:
#BrexitReality
And yet here's Jacob Rees-Mogg complaining that the Civil Service has gotten bigger since we "took back control".

It's almost as if more "control" needs more hands!

The Tory Leadership Race is basically "Evil Olympics".

Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss don't even care what the public thinks about them. It's all about impressing Tory members with their cruelty.

On strategy:

Yes, I can see the argument for waiting until she's won before drawing attention to all her weaknesses.

But I want us to hit the ground with her. (😉)

And Rishi Sunak is so far behind that it feels safe to do so.
But I could be wrong.
I could really be wrong.

Liz Truss' problem is that, as a Lib Dem Remainer turned Tory Brexiteer... She doesn't have any real principles to guide her.

So she's just going by what she THINKS Tory members want to hear.

So she might lose this by trying too hard to please them. 😬
