John Major, "One aspect of reducing immigration would be to make it more palatable for migrants to remain in their own countries"

"That is why the policy of cutting aid and investment to poor countries is a very poor sighted policy"

John Major, "Populism is no longer a fringe problem of a few outlandish politicians. It is now mainstream and professional"

"We should recognise the threat it poses to democracy"

"Democracy has a lot to lose"

Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords.

Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year.

But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes.

My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!

Imagine coming up with a proposal so stupid, so unworkable, so thoughtless, that it makes Robert Jenrick look sane by comparison.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

No less than €180 billion in frozen Russian assets are dispersed across the European Union.

The EU plan would be to deploy €140 billion (£122bn) of these assets as a zero-interest “reparations loan” to Ukraine, providing Ukraine with urgently needed resources.

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.

They keep punching down and turning to look at the Reform voters shrilling screaming "You like this, right? RIGHT?? This is what you want and you'll vote for us right? RIGHT!??" while the Reform voters call them "stupid fookin' wankers" and continue to cheer Farage.
Labour's anti-asylum policies are already fundamentally inhumane and discriminatory. Applying them retrospectively is pure cruelty though. It serves absolutely no purpose. Meanwhile it will increase the costs and bureaucracy of an already dysfunctional Home Office.
