Oh god. This will go as well as school league tables have, perverting the system and encouraging management to game the system for a better ranking instead of serving the needs of the public. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Corey Wiley on Twitter writes: "You don’t get it. 
Foundational immigration law is morally just and has been established over millennia. Disrespecting these rules and ideals is very offensive to folks who highly value civilized society"

Not true.

I see you're a luxury watch dealer. I'm also interested in watches. Let me show you how free and easy migration has allowed you to earn a living. 🧵

I need everyone to internalize how barbarically archaic it is to assert that a person's rights should be determined by where they were born.

That the entire immigration conversation revolves around an idea exactly as primitive and precisely as stupid as drowning witches and burning scientists.

A new study shows a way out of Labour’s electoral dilemma With many slim majorities, Labour MPs fear losing votes to left and right. But a major new study suggests there is a way forward

This is useful, from @eastangliabylines.co.uk

“…if all of the ‘Reform-curious’ abandoned Labour for Reform, Labour would lose 123 seats, but they would keep a parliamentary majority. But on the other hand, if the Liberal Democrat- & Green-curious switched, Labour would lose 250 and the election”

You can't have an "adult" conversation about the federal budget if you ask us to think of the US like a household. That's how you have a childish conversation.

Kevin Maguire - Trump is treating UK like Guatemala, it's time to rethink Brexit The Mirror's Associate Editor and politics columnist Kevin Maguire says it's high time Keir Starmer took a second look at reversing Brexit after US President Donald Trump imposed his rogue tariffs

“That quitting the single market and customs union of our country’s largest trading partner inflicts damage ­considerably worse than the US hit should be screamed from the rooftops, not ignored”

On Wednesday we published an interactive map showing the tens of thousands of UK companies hiding their beneficial owner. It's now updated - with filters and search functions.

In this thread I use it to uncover a truly shocking and unexpected case of hidden ownership.

NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.

Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan.

So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & “special relationship” is dead.

Being able to drop a quarterly US GDP prediction by 5.1% from +2.3% to -2.8% in a single week is one of the most impressive economic developments in the history of the world.

Trump just helped bring Andrew Tate — who is literally charged with rape and human trafficking — into our country.

After 9/11, NATO's Article 5 was invoked for the first (and only) time ever by the United States.
Troops from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Australia, Spain, Poland, Norway, Romania, Turkey, New Zealand, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Finland, and many others joined the fight in Afghanistan.
More than one thousand of these soldiers paid the ultimate price.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts.

Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

It’s a great puzzle that Israel has an unlimited budget and arsenal without having to account from where it comes.
Whereas Ukraine is now being asked to hand over half it’s mineral wealth if it is to receive support from the US.
All while Trump is giving comfort and succour to Putin.
