Sajid Javid personally orchestrated the virtually halt of timely asylum processing in the late 2010s, that directly led to the "asylum hotel crisis", and he did it for no reason except to cause a crisis.

Much love to Alex Pretti and Renee Good -but remember-ICE has killed 9 people in 2026. You know the names of the 2 white people they've killed.

ICE has also killed a Black man named Keith Porter, a Cambodian named Parady La, and five Latinos named Heber Sanchaz DomΓ­nguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos.

ICE is on pace to kill more than 100 people this year. Abolish ICE. Impeach Noem. Prosecute those who committed these crimes.

Say their names. Rest in Power.

I know folks will be tripping over themselves to defend Good and Pretti, but you have to admit, in a full on assault against BIPOC, we're only saying the names of the two white folks? That's racist behavior.

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

I’m sorry but as someone who has a book and a PhD on this exact thing, this is just straight up not true. The majority of Nazis discovered living abroad (particularly in the US, Australia, and UK) faced almost no legal consequences beyond the occasional loss of citizenship.

I'd also be prepared to bet a significant chunk of the 17% "don't know" would also be easily won by greens/YP/plaid/snp or even lib dems depending on local candidates and tactical voting

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

Solidarity with #MargaretLoftus & absolute shame on the Gardai who testified on behalf of a violent abuser. Margaret commended the women who’ve gone before her. Survivors increasingly break anonymity to call out the traumatising, misogynistic legal system.

In the UK soldiers lifted people of the street and raided houses, busting the door and dragging kids from their beds. I know this because I was one of those children held shaking with cold and barefoot at gun point while other armed men emptied the contents of my mother’s hot press onto the floor.

Of course what's occurring in the US could happen in the UK! It already fecking did.

One of the projects you can support on Smelt is a new sitcom by me. It's called The Least Bad Of All Possible Worlds and it's about refugees from parallel universes trying to integrate into society in Morecambe. You can pledge to fund it here: if you fund it, we make it! mirlo.space/leadmojo/rel...

Just to reiterate here: this is Adolf Hitler’s Judeo-Bolshevism except now the Times of London will gladly repeat it in their editorials, and they’ve been doing exactly this for more than ten years. It is a choice excerpt from Mein Kampf, and we should treat it as such.

Maybe not coincidence the press filled up with screaming terror about ethnic minority sex offenders and transgender people, in the same decade that multiple appalling scandals broke revealing politics and business - the most powerful people in the world - are knee-deep in coercive sexual abuse.

Recently had to face the possibility of being forced back to my hometown and as much as London has its own challenges (rent being more than 50% of my paycheck for one) I would have to be dragged back to middle england kicking and screaming. I literally cannot fathom going back by choice.

Greenland belongs to Inuit people, not America but also not Denmark. It is stolen land administered from overseas *already*.

Just because we like Denmark and we don't like America, doesn't make that less relevant.

Yes no definitely, I never believed I'd pay it off but I also didn't think it would hurt the bottom line too badly and looking at it now approaching Β£100k is just really depressing lol

I can only speak from my own perspective, but the threshold was relatively a lot higher. If it had kept up with inflation my plan would start repaying above Β£35k, but it's still around Β£27k, which isn't far off minimum wage at 40hrs. Naive but i believed it wouldn't impact me until I was earning OK

The 'give ice qr codes' thing reminds me of when Sarah Everard was murdered by a real policeman using his real police id to kidnap her, and the police & gvt made out the solution was to have a helpline to check that the person bundling you away was a real policeman (as the murderer was)

The present moment is very worrying. Many people you might expect to behave well are behaving with enormous cowardice. But also, many people with no particular reason to behave heroically will behave heroically. These are the people to focus on, if you focus on the weak cowards, you'll give up hope.

He threatened to kill his son but it wasn't investigated as GardaΓ­ must have a formal complaint, in the case of a child from a parent or guardian, before they can investigate. This loophole in our law has caused the death of a child. Gardai should be able to investigate as soon as they're aware!
