Replying to @DonnaLouise1212
Exactly right, and that’s the truth that gets buried under the outrage.
What happened to Brenda Miles isn’t about asylum seekers or migration; it’s about how private equity has turned care into a profit machine. Many care homes are owned by offshore investment funds or financial groups that treat elderly residents as revenue streams, not human beings. They drain life savings from families who’ve already paid into the system all their lives, while underpaying staff, cutting corners, and charging councils extortionate rates for basic care.
The real scandal is that we’ve allowed an essential public good, dignity in old age, to become a cash cow for investors. The workers are exhausted and underpaid, the residents are frightened and disposable once their money runs out, and the taxpayers are footing the bill for shareholder dividends.
Blaming asylum seekers misses the mark entirely. This is about political failure, corporate greed, and a moral void in how we value our elders. Brenda deserved compassion and security, not eviction.

They don't make songs like that anymore. All natural, no computers. One of the best voices ever. Goosebumps.

“It's baffling why the Government would take this action when a famous scandal is taking place; there is a very clear public interest in transparency.”
The government is taking its own transparency regulator to court to block the release of emails, @GeorgeGreenwood explains.

698 nights ago I started my camp out. Before my friend died he gave me a tent and told me to have an adventure.

Both these photos are from this year… the first is from late January when I was sectioned, suicidal and had no hope…
The other is from today - genuinely happy, celebrating raising over £40,000 for the charity that helped me recover!
Safe to say, things got better! 😀

Johnson ran straight out of the chamber seconds after he was utterly exposed and shamed by @Ed_Miliband - didn’t want to hear any more.
Looked broken, weak and incompetent - head bowed, hands folded, muttering.
What an embarrassment for our country at such a critical time.

Teachers, who for years have been made by the government to risk assess every activity they do to the ninth degree, are now being critisised for pointing out that the same risk assessments mean that the government's plans shouldnt happen.

Perhaps early signs that infection rates are slowing. This Easter weekend every individual in this country faces a more critical choice that will impact our immediate futures than anything else most have faced in their lifetimes: stay home or be a twat? Really is that simple
