I hope every Labour MP considering whether to support Shabana Mahmood's asylum plans remembers Nigel Farage's assessment that the “Home Secretary sounds like a Reform supporter.”

If they support them they will too.

The current government clearly lied to us during the election. This will continue to happen until we deliver consequences for doing so.

Labour is no longer the party of trade unions or the NHS. It's time for unions to stop funding them and for voters to vote Green, to actually support a properly funded and staffed NHS.

NHS staff still earn less than we did in 2010.
'Don't tell me you don't want to be out on strike - because that is exactly where you are. Own it.'

As resident doctors walk out again, Wes Streeting calls out the 'reprehensible and cartel-like behaviour' of their union.

There should be mass resignations from Labour now. Unions need to show anti-racist backbone and pull funds as soon as it’s possible. Kill the fascist party masquerading as something from the left. They are utterly vile.

the thing that most people forget about is that we're no longer live in silos, that was forgotten during the fucking Brexit thing where British politicians seem to say the stupidest shit thinking the rest of Europe can't read their words in real time too
Labour is going to introduce safe routes for those claiming refugee status while everybody here is talking about ‘jewellery theft’ proposals. I strongly suspect the latter was meant to divert Sun readers’ attention from clocking the former while you are meant to be welcoming the former. 🫤

If you want to stop me criticising, either stop doing dumb things or give me a peerage. Either is fine.

Oh so we'll steal and use the paltry little family heirlooms of people who've escaped rape gangs, torture & slaughter?

But we're just holding onto Russian oligarchs' assets for "safe keeping", right?

So - let me make sure I understand - #Labour are Nazis, running a Nazi bank for Russian oligarchs?

If Labour voters voted Green, they could crush the threat of Reform UK.

They have a choice:

Vote Green and have a progressive government that helps people

Or

Vote Labour and usher in Reform Uk led far-right fascism.

This is something the nazis did to their victims and the American government does to it's today.

It's safe to say the UK wants to imitate Trump, death camps and selling people into slavery included.
The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

The jewellery thing is vile. It resonates with confiscation of jewellery by the Nazis. Jewellery carries so many important personal memories beyond the value of the metal and stones. Imagine having to surrender an engagement ring, or your father’s watch.

If you’re still a member of the Labour Party now I’m afraid you’ve missed the cut off point for assuaging your guilt by getting out. You’re a Nazi now. Sorry that’s just the way it is.
