The slippery slope towards fascism we were on just became a vertical cliff. Labour can't finesse or equivocate this. They have to repudiate the notion entirely, and stampede back towards civilisation. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

This seems like an excellent money spinner for the Taliban. I'm guessing they would get 10s of thousands for each returnee. It can't cost that much to fund a trip to the UK from there. So, for a small investment, say £1000, can get a 10 times return from the UK tax payer when they come back.

How utterly appalling. The Conservatives and Reform seeing who can scrape the bottom of the barrel first. How this country is sinking lower and lower, with compliant fawning media in attendance. What a pile of crap.

I wish I had your confidence in your second sentence.

My second sentence contains nothing to be confident about, because implicit in it is my iron belief that, if Labour DON'T change, they're out in 2029 and finished as a political force.
