Once again, another mealy-mouthed half defence of the earned settlement proposals from someone who clearly hasn't read them/doesn't understand them.

As Badenoch's letter (accurately) makes clear, there is only a modest difference in degree between Mahmood's proposals and Tory policy.

What are you talking about? Why, I heard the leader of said party just this morning saying she'd preemptively nuke another country.

If you are the MP for Birmingham Edgbaston and you are backing somebody who has just publicly declared that she doesn't want bourgeois votes, you may want to ask your doctor to check if you've been lobotomised.

FFS. They're all so desperate to make things worse for ordinary people who want to live and work here, it's untrue.

She suggests β€œinternal investigations” are now under way, but denies doing anything wrong.

To this day it makes me feel a bit sick that β€œboriswave open borders experiment” went from far-right talking point on hushed dark web forums to something senior cabinet ministers just take as fact.

There is no possible defence for deporting children. Labour needs a swift u-turn on this performative cruelty.

 This article was amended on 5 March 2026. An earlier version said low-skilled workers would β€œreceive immediate access to welfare and social housing” if Labour did not make them wait longer to apply for settlement. In fact, settlement status only gives people the eligibility to apply for welfare and social housing, it does not give them instant or automatic access to such benefits. This has been clarified.

Guardian has now [after my complaint] corrected Mahmood's deliberate & incendiary false claim settlement gives immigrants "immediate access to welfare and social housing".

Good for Gdn but embarrassing/shameful that Home Secretary deliberately misled the public for political gain like this.
