It started with Trump’s abusive actions and accelerated when he ran his mouth. A matter already settled by the court. -
I wonder, could the UK trade Liz Trust with China? Perhaps get a couple of plastic buckets in a fair exchange.
-
They are positioning themselves for who will be leader of the opposition after the election.

It’s also very useful for an Army that wishes to attack another nation who’s boarders and/or defense positions are protected with land mines. But I get your point, soldiers of an invading army are all somebody’s children.
-
All unsubstantiated hogwash.
-
Did you spot my opening words? ’I think’.
-
Not unreasonable really.

Meanwhile someone is getting fed up of waiting. Or perhaps the realization has dawned, £hundreds of millions already received for doing nothing, cut while the going is good: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/jan/17/rwanda-president-efforts-to-implement-asylum-plan-cannot-drag-on

Trump wins Iowa caucuses, cementing frontrunner status in 2024 race

You can strike Haley as VP to Trump, she’s just turned on him. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/jan/16/new-hampshire-debate-trump-nikki-haley -
I think people who argue for removing the UK from international human rights laws and the ECHR in order to enact laws that they have been advised will in any case break UK law are rightwing extremists. Feel free to differ.
-
That’s a remarkable claim, for which I doubt you have any credible evidence, but do give it a go.
-
Ad hominem.

Unless of course the Government decide on a level that does harm to the economy and the provision of essential public services.

Refer to the top of the forum you’ll find guidance on when a link is required, it’s along the lines of: ”Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source.” Let me know when I ask for links that is inconsistent with that guidance. In the meantime consider the difference between an opinion and a statement purporting to be a fact.

You mean you quoted it, but it wasn’t you. Despite in your original post you made absolutely no mention of ‘Politico’. You typed it, then you hit submit reply’.
-
Just checking, that was you. Before you started banging on about issues around legal immigration?
-
You appear to be arguing with yourself.
-
I was not complaining.
-
Regardless, the Government’s knee jerk reaction to rightwing hysteria on immigration targeted both ‘legal’ and ‘illegal’ immigration. Lending a lie to the claim it’s only ‘illegal immigration’ that the extremists on the right are concerned over. The ensuing embarrassing climb down was expected and unlike most of what is expected from this Government it was delivered.
-
Opinions differ. Tory statements on withdrawing from humans rights law, proposals to place Government above the law and scapegoating immigrants are all a matter of public record.
-
Did I say immigrant numbers should be unlimited? I simply pointed out the fact that all immigration is a issue, not simply ‘illegal immigration’. That the Tories have failed on all fronts doesn’t help.
-
An observation of factual Tory posturing is not a redefinition of Conservatism. .
-
Odd then that the Government should have set about increasing the income threshold, a many other means, in order to ‘slash’ immigration to the UK. Most of these Government moves aim to reduce legal immigration: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/home-secretary-unveils-plan-to-cut-net-migration
-
Can you point to where I have given a definition of Conservatism. Listing some of the characteristics of this failing Conservative Government that is itself engaging in internal strife over what the party stands for is not by any means or sense ‘redefining Conservatism’. But please go ahead provide a quote from any of my posts that substantiates your claim.
-
Well yes, extreme right wingers do scapegoat immigrants.
