Let's make sure everyone knows about the activities that senior Reform members have gotten up to.

These are not people we can trust to run out country.

Make sure people never forget!

I think a resolution of the war in the West Bank and Gaza is highly unlikely. That murderous old bastard Netanyahu and the illegal settlers do not want peace as long as they can steal land with impunity

Trump’s role in halting Gaza’s suffering was driven by self-interest. Will that be enough for him to finish the job? | Kenneth Roth

The US president’s Gulf allies and supporters at home might just persuade him to pursue lasting peace. And then there’s always next year’s Nobel prize, says writer and academic Kenneth Roth

"Israel is still limiting the number of aid trucks allowed to enter Gaza. Its only permitting 300, half the agreed number under the Trump plan"

So Israel continues to starve people in Gaza because they claim Hamas hasn't done something. The definition of collective punishment

The required level is a B1 or B2.

Equivalent to intermediate or upper intermediate English.

I worked as a TEFL teacher many moons ago, and that's most certainly not A level grade English - or at least it wasn't back then.

In its rush to appear tough, this government is losing what friends it had.

All of this is being put out to placate the right wing press...

In the meantime, it's causing fear & confusion. As I understand it:

● this only applies to some people on skilled visas
● it's not "A level English" it's something called SELT
● much the same requirement exists elsewhere in EU

Fact is, this rabble rousing racist & traitor will still be in this country, living in one of his shadily funded houses, free to walk the streets, spreading his vile brand of fascism.

With his financial connections to Russia which the media refuses to address.

Farage:

'The fact is, in 18 months, this violent criminal will be in this country, living in a hotel, free to walk the streets.'

Isn't it the fact that he would be deported as a foreign criminal sentenced to more than 1 yr in jail - under Labour's 2007 Borders Act?

Ignorance on Farage's part?🤔
