There is no huge influx. We take far fewer refugees than other major European countries. This is just an immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 30s, and I’m out of order?

James O'Brien exposes exactly why Suella Braverman's 'invasion' rhetoric is so dangerous and divisive.
The man even uses a dictionary!

Was asked why I was wearing a mask this morning while ordering breakfast. Did you see those images of the Commons, I replied, with a bare-faced govt facing the masked opposition? I don’t want anyone in here thinking I’m a Tory

Firefighters and their union, the Fire Brigades Union, will face another stitch up tomorrow: 22 January.
The powers-that-be do not like us:
Because we stand up for ourselves;
Because we fight for safety in the workplace.
Hirelings do their bidding.
Watch this space. – at Kingston upon Thames, London

“All we do is lie”: Grenfell’s insulation maker private WhatsApp chats reveal how Kingspan joked about passing fire safety tests. @RagsMartel reports from the Inquiry

Tories blamed the fans for Hillsborough
Tories blamed the miners for Orgreave
Tories blamed Labour for the global financial crash
Tories blamed the firefighters for Grenfell
Tories blamed care homes for Covid-19 deaths.
And now the Tories blame young people for a 2nd wave.

"Giveaway" - Unlawful means Govt stole this money from Firefighter families
"Highest paid" - Firefighters pay is 13% below the ave hourly pay for FT UK workers.
"Most privileged" - Firefighters run into burning buildings, risking their health, wellbeing & lives to save others.
"This will be a straight giveaway from taxpayers to the highest paid and most privileged public sector workers."
@PJTheEconomist describes how the government ended up spending £17 billion on reforms to the pensions provided to public sector employees.

Happy Birthday to this one!
The man who gave me green fingers. Always an inspiration, never once worried he'd have my back. He should be PM right now but he'll always be DAD.

Does not matter which way you voted - everyone can surely see the Govt press conferences are nothing more than self serving propaganda

Hi @MattHancock, we're not entirely sure that a newspaper having to buy PPE from abroad - in what has been dubbed a 'crisis intervention' - is the success story you think it is. It's embarrassing and shameful, actually.
