The ceasefire in Gaza is a one-sided sham.
Israeli forces have never stopped targeting Palestinians and brutally murdering them while they sleep in their refugee camp tents.
This is genocide with total impunity - a gift from the British government.

This is the result of German media propaganda. A supposedly educated man believing that the UN orchestrated the October 7 attacks, and that human rights groups are lying about war crimes committed by Israel. Truly dangerous

1. Family reunification is ALREADY limited to "close family"
2. Forcing people to avoid claiming benefits they are entitled to and need under threat of being refused citizenship is horrifically cruel. That was the policy under Michael McDowell and it caused great hardship to the most vulnerable.

New: major overhaul of immigration laws to see citizenship denied to those who got welfare, or are in debt. Family reunification only for close family, tighter rules around self sufficiency. Changes to revoke residency for those who commit serious crimes

The Irish Times published and lauded John Collison's op-ed, but did they fact-check it?
Andrew Jackson did. Thoroughly.

The people of the Caribbean are being forced to bear the costs of a crisis they did not cause. And they can’t afford the clean-up thanks to the legacy of colonialism.
