part of democratic backsliding is it becomes tacitly accepted some people never face consequences
New - Nigel Farage has been found by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards to have made 17 standards breaches, adding up to over £380,000 in late declarations.
He’s apologised, so no further investigation (which seems unusual for a breach this large)

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

And sarcasm is not analysis.
Miliband is one of the few ministers to have developed a really ambitious policy programme. Indeed, that's precisely the Conservative complaint.
We can debate whether those policies are correct. But if there's any minister doing serious policy work, it's Miliband.
