An aging U.K. population means we need an increase in people of working age. Our current birth rate is insufficient to meet this requirement.

You might think the time for debate about Trump’s authoritarian, cruel, racist regime was over. How about the @housedemocrats.bsky.social calling for health workers to report all victims of ICE that turn up at their hospitals as a start.

It’s never about actual migration, it’s always about politicians and power. They would make Santa Clause a mass murderer if they thought it would win them votes.

One of the most difficult things to come to terms with after Brexit is how I no longer identify with my post Brexit country.

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.

If you want to reduce the welfare budget don’t you need to reduce the need for one by improving the economy, job prospects, wages and cost of living generally?

What everyone knows, even Brexit supporters is that Brexit has been a national disaster and not just economically.
What we also know is that we need a government that will take us back into the CU and SM.

What angers me as much as the flag shaggers putting up Union flags all over our town again is that the flags are not removed. Our town is made ugly, the people uncomfortable and nervous by a few racists thugs.
Letting then get away with it is criminal in my view.
