Current Affairs The Conservative Party

I mean it feels wholly cut and dried. What can Ofcom do should they find that rules have been broken? Is it simply a tut tut and don't do it again or anything more fundamental? I mean we had Kelvin McKenzie suggesting that the SAS should be sent in to sort out the dinghies full of asylum seekers the other day, and Ofcom don't appear to have done anything to censure either GBNews or the S*n for that abomination.

Honestly I’d only stop hitting that fella to get my breath back , scum.

These lefty lawyers...Enemies of the people.

Harsh on Skeletor that tbf. He never did anything even close to as evil as Braverman

This Johnson show is actually a major distraction right now.
In fact, it suits the Tories to have this freak bumbling away on TV while the state of the nation goes down the pan.

Would be funny if GB News has to put a disclaimer up saying they’re not a real news programme

The constanza method

Saw a boss placard at the doctors strikes:

“We held their hands and watched them die, while they held their glasses of champagne and lied.”

Easy for the Tories to find Money for bombs/missies/war or condemning refugees looking for help, linked to idle jingoistic, fascist racism to drum up the ukippers, but absolutely no money for doctors, nurses, paramedics, rail workers and every other hero who are the best of us?!

Get in the bin you horrible flag shagging racist Tory crooks.

Garth Crooks is a right rotter!

I know some have expressed an open mind on this issue and want to learn from a more reliable source than the Torygraph.

How will refugees react to the Illegal Migration Bill? - Free Movement

The short answer is that we do not know. But it is possible to make some informed guesses. In this post I try to do just that, based on a Twitter thread from

Note they mention Heaven Crawley's work. She really knows her stuff on this topic. She's also tried to inform policy with mixed results- ideology over evidence...

That sums up their immigration policy more broadly. Sadly, there doesn't appear to be too much evidence that Labour would be a great deal different. No political party is really outlining why immigration is a good thing.

Illegal immigration: cracking down on smuggling makes gangs more organised – and costs migrant lives

Arresting smugglers is difficult, and doesn’t make migrants less likely to seek out their services.
