Trying to find a better example of racism than "Given your country of origin you have a medival attitude"
But you should just stay on the nice side of the station till it's time. Once you go through it's like the worse airport from 2013.
"Let's announce another policy behind a paywall in the Telegraph who will then announce it with the worst possible headline."

Note how, when the government’s condemnation is timely, the rest of the Westminster ecosystem does in fact, react differently!
Barnet? I'm always shocked how much space there in at the end of the northern line.
I reckon a few more months of twitter and you could get the shadow home secretary to favourably refer to how the Tsarist press used to highlight every Jewish name they mentioned...
Ok, go criticise it. Please explain why a photo of me and my wife on an advert would do you harm?
That seems to be your preferred solution? The market says diversity is good and makes money. For some reason you think that is a problem and needs to be stopped (or at least explained). How to do that without a quota?
Defence? Implies they have done something wrong?

It's like my saying "Why do they have Christmas decorations for sale in Costco in August? Because it makes them money is no defence!"
Imagine living in that world.
"Can we make sure in this advert for home insurance we see the family eating pork? We've already filled our Jewish quota for the month."
Sorry, you see to be implying seeing a mixed race family in an advert is equivalent to misogyny?
"I've yet to see an explanation why companies behave this way."
"It makes them money."

That's /always/* the answer.

*almost always
The tone of that article is so weird, accusing valve, instead of being "Isn't it fucking stupid there was a 6 billion dollar market in CS skins".
Really? I love raw oysters.

But I also eat everything on that list, so I'm not exactly representative I guess.
When did that ever happen? It was one of Sunaks three word pledges, Labour key conference promise was digital ID to stop them?

It's been all boats all the time for years.
"This might work within the M25* but not with the rest of the country"

Sorry, I've got bad news about who has all the money.

*presumably she means all big cities here.

"Unfortunately it's not in our strategic interests to say the racist part out loud" is quite the advice.
Montie gives Pochin the benefit of his wisdom.
They think it's important because the government is acting like it's important. Sunak had "Stop the boats" as a slogan, Stamner is introducing ID cards to make it harder.

Maybe if they shut the fuck up about this problem they refuse to solve by just opening safe routes KS will do better than RS?
Just fucking hilarious that the Tories had "Stop the boats" as a slogan, refused to do the policy to actually stop them, but yeah I'm sure Labor should keep raising the salience of an issue that only helps reform
It's part of why Prime Minister Sunsk got re-elected last year.
Actually, just reducing the salience of an issue Labour can't win on would presumably count as ignoring the boats. So really he wants Labour to keep punching itself in the face.
By "Deal with the boats" he presumably means everything appart from that, and building an even more hostile environment, whilst failing to stop them just last the last three tory PM's did.
But obviously the people who say "I don't like seeing brown faces on TV" will obviously be happy if we get net migration to 100k again. So those additional burdens on business will definitely be worth it.
And famously, the NHS from 1997 was a huge success, and definitely not an albatross arround their neck at the next election.
