My new bookshop has very limited stock, but it's open for modest business. New and old titles are coming.
Have a look.

"would otherwise receive immediate access to welfare and social housing" is BS.
Correct: "after 5 years working in a care home, would be eligible to apply for welfare and social housing on the same basis as the rest of us."

Deliberately misleading/disingenous.
For others who may have interest in putting a complaint, Mahmood's article is in clear breach of the Guardian's Editorial Code, both on Accuracy and on Public Interest section 1iii (misleading the public).

I dunno...
I have an idea, a twist on a well known show.
"I'm [a person with a prominent public persona]ΒΉ, don't let me out of here", where prominent people [Nonces, Politicians, Racists etc] are sent somewhere, never to be released.
What do you think?

This is a hot mess of outright lies and misinformation from the Home Secretary, designed to try and persuade people that a government which is implementing some of the most hostile anti-immigration/asylum policies, in practice, for decades is progressive. 1/

Labourβs problem is that they didnβt take a principled stand against Farage from the start. Now theyβre scrabbling around, lost and confused.

If true, then I have to question Starmer's judgement
...again.
Does anyone think that this - effectively describing people who came here at *our* invitation to work in care homes as would-be parasites on the welfare state - is what she meant?

The precedent is eerily, chillingly precise. What the current Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is doing to immigrants and refugees today is almost a carbon copy of what Sir William Joynson-Hicks was doing 100 years ago. And that's not a good thing. My column.

Hey, I have a question for you, if you've got a couple of minutes to enthusiastically rant in my direction about something you love knowing.
It's this:

I freaking love this new feature. No more apps and RFID. Everything's automatic.
Rapid charging an electric car in NZ is now as easy as plugging in your phone and SOOOO much easier than having to buy petrol. π
