Youβre forgiven. Heβs not!
Speak for yourself. We use the letter βuβ here
In pushing Labour's extreme and hostile anti-asylum and anti-immigration policies the Home Secretary has lied. She has, deliberately or through ignorance, misled the public on fundamental aspects of both. That alone should surely be a resigning matter
This but for economics: the quicker migrants become citizens the less the risk that employers can exploit them to lower wages (both migrantsβ wages and natives)
I know I keep pointing this out but: if you want immigrants to contribute to British society, integrate across community lines, become engaged civic actors, you actually *want* them to get citizenship, and as soon as possible in fact!
The way people tell me βyouβre much too politicalβ bitch, do you think I WANT TO BE? I want to be sitting on a fucking beach and drinking cocktails without a care in the world but you fuckers keep voting in FASCISTS!
No half-sentient person would trust Trump with a barbecue, and here we are watching him start a war to distract from his weapons grade depravity & incompetence.
Please please please let one outcome from yesterday be the death of these utterly hideous proposed immigration reforms
History: who the fuck?
Historiography: who asked "who the fuck" and why the fuck did they?
You were with me the whole time. Couldnβt possibly have done it
Exactly why I taught myself to make proper Mexican and whenever the SIL visits from the states she brings me bags of dried peppers.
He already used the UFO files to try and distract from the Epstein Files so he canβt use those. Unless it was a cunning plan to dead cat both the SC decision before it was announced AND the Epstein files in a wibbly wobbly timey wimey thing. Hmmm???
They look like the gloves I use when Iβm prepping my meats for the smoker
Sir Jim Ratcliffeβs recent comments about migration werenβt just wrong, or offensive, they were a distraction.
Thereβs a reason billionaires keep stoking anti-migrant sentiment, hereβs what they donβt want you to realiseβ¦ π§΅1/10
Iβve said it before, and Iβm sure Iβll say it a thousand times more: If you believe you love freedom but donβt care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.
I donβt know the final 2 characters so canβt comment fully. But off the basis of the first two alone, I would pay money to see that, sir. Good money
ALL. THE. DAMN. TIME
Gender pay gap won't close for another 30 years.
Myth of equality used to hike women's state pension age.
Women hold 69% of low-paid & insecure jobs.
Women hit first by benefit cuts, wage freezes, two-child benefit cap. More likely to be unpaid carers.
Why are govt policies loaded against women?
Ah. My commiserations
Oh whatβs he done now?
Democracy is when voters choose their leaders. Autocracy is when leaders choose their voters.
Thank you kindly. There really could be a fun group to emerge from this!
Oooh yey. Iβm female, childless, MA Historian and married to an immigrant. Can I volunteer?
If Matt Goodwin is serious about his concerns that women are delaying motherhood, he should demand:
- Better employment security for women
- Better maternity rights
- Better maternity pay
- Free or at least affordable childcare
- Equal pay for women
- Equal pensions for women
Protecting women and girls, eh?
Calling on other UK immigrants and pro immigration citizens, today is the last day (til 11.59pm) to fill in the public consultation on the proposed changes to Earned Settlement, most notably moving the timeline from 5 years to 10 years www.gov.uk/government/c...
The UK government is proposing radical and punitive changes to settlement rules. This is settlement, not citizenship. The consultation is open until 12 February; please respond to it and oppose these evil proposals. Amnesty have a good guide: www.amnesty.org.uk/resources/gu...
Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."
