Our government tried to let racist, genocidal Israeli football hooligans rampage on Birmingham's streets.

They smeared those opposed to this as being driven by hatred of Jewish people.

Now listen to what the West Midlands Chief Constable told MPs.

What a scandal.

Another contemporary yesterday accused the Reform leader of being a "complete liar". Andy Field, a GP who was two years below Farage at Dulwich, said he had directly witnessed racial abuse from the Reform UK leader. He told BBC Radio Four's World at One he had been contacted on social media by people "who were nine years old and Nigel Farage, when he was 18 years old, marched frequently into the playground where they were playing and they were told to 'go back to Africa'. Others were singled out for being Jewish." Field, who said he did not have political affiliations, added: "T'd see him goose-stepping through the playground and Nazi saluting on many occasions — that was quite a common occurrence. I'd also heard him saying things like Hitler was right and you escaped the gas chamber." In correspondence with The

new allegation concerning Farage’s behaviour when he was 18 years old

This will be unpopular to some, but I want Mahmood to succeed. I don't give a toss about who kicks out the illegals, I just want them gone. And for now, there is one group of people who can deliver that. The Labour Government. Whether we like or not, that's the reality. So if Mahmood introduces robust reform that results in far more illegals getting sent home, then I will support it. We can sit and moan that they're not going far enough, and I will do exactly that, but we must also appreciate the progress being made here. The entire debate has shifted, and policy is following. That matters. Let's see what happens, and how quickly it happens, but this is a good day. I don't care about petty party politics. Fighting for votes. I want what's best for Britain. That is all. Labour know they have to reduce illegal immigration and stop the boats. There is no choice. Our job is to keep the pressure on, to make them go FAR faster and FAR further. Keep pushing. We are winning.

Full tweet from Lowe below - do note the wording:

"Our job is to keep the pressure on, to make them go FAR faster and FAR further.

Keep pushing. We are winning."

Indeed they are - and Labour is absolutely letting them.

Just heard someone shout “fuck off you fucking paki” on Tottenham Court Road.

I was surprised at how frightened it made me feel. Can’t imagine how it felt to the person being shouted at.

Well done, Labour. And a particularly special shout out to Mahmood. You’ve made shit a thousand times worse.

Massive backlash as Mahmood announces asylum shake-up

Reform MP Danny Kruger tells Shabana Mahmood that "I welcome [her] rhetoric" on asylum seekers, before telling her to "put in her application to join Reform UK"

Eternal Labour Voter here: I will never vote for Labour again due to her bigotry

Mahmood: I won't listen to Labour voters, only Reform ones who won't vote for us

Asked about Tommy Robinson supporting her asylum plans Shabana Mahmood replies that "Tommy Robinson doesn't even think I'm actually English, so he will certainly not be supporting anything I've got to say."

But he is supporting what she's got to say. That was the point of the question

You are defining refugees as OTHER for the rest of their lives Ms Mahmood. That is nothing other than a far right policy.

#BBCLauraK

Shabana Mahmood warns Labour MPs ‘dark forces are stirring up anger’ over migration There is understood to be growing unease in party over home secretary’s sweeping overhaul of refugee rights

The “Dark forces” stirring up anger are you Ms Mahmood.

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Mahmood is told off by the Deputy Speaker for her language

Mahmood is sociopathic.

Labour MP Olivia Blake tells Shabana Mahmood that her rhetoric about asylum seekers being handed a "golden ticket" is "deeply offensive" and "feeds division" "and will only strengthen Reform not beat them".

Shabana Mahmood casually saying they're gonna take migrant's jewellery off them has got me thinking about that scene in Schindler's List where the Jewish family wrap family heirlooms in bread and swallow them.

What the fuck are we?

Next, Kuenssberg asks Mahmood if she believes she can actually push her proposals through Parliament, when there is opposition from some figures in her party. Mahmood says: "I really reject the idea that dealing with this problem is somehow engaging in far-right talking points". Illegal migration is "tearing our country apart" she adds. "I know that I have to persuade people... not just in Parliament but across the country" that these reforms will work, says Mahmood.

Deep breath, once more for those at the back, seeking asylum is not illegal. No matter route used, which considering Labour has closed pretty much all the last remaining alternatives means irregular ones.
Anti-immigration sentiments are stoked by politicians like Mahmood, not people seeking safety.

Fuck Shabana Mahmood. Fuck Labour. End borders. Protect asylum seekers. Protect refugees. Protect immigrants.

Why does every picture of Shabana Mahmood make her look like she's scheming to kill Paddington?

Labour's Stella Creasy asks Shabana Mahmood if she will "incarcerate children with their families as part of enforced return, or whether she intends to separate children from their mums and dads"?

Mahmood says she won't separate children, but doesn't say if they will be incarcerated

Shabana Mahmood puts the signs up: Britain is full. No blacks, no dogs, no Irish We had always given sanctuary to those who needed it, she said, only now we would kick them out as soon as possible

Shabana Mahmood puts the signs up: Britain is full. No blacks, no dogs, no Irish

Shabana Mahmood has morphed into Priti Patel.

Shabana Mahmood asked by Labour MP John McDonnell to "give me the assurance that no child will be placed in detention as a result of this policy"

Mahmood does not give him that assurance

Watching the Mahmood announcement and debate. Tory backbencher (Karen Bradley) suggests putting refugees into debt and making them repay during the rest of their lives. Mahmood says she’ll think about it.

2015 Shabana Mahmood really needs to have a word with 2025 Shabana Mahmood

Today was a very dark day in a long history of dark days. The Home Secretary has shamed this country & scraped the bottom of the barrel with her cruel announcements. After 14 years of Tory incompetence, austerity & corruption we’ve now entered a new level of right wing poison!😔

Shabana Mahmood, "I am the one that is regularly called a f*cking Paki and told to go back home"

Shabana Mahmood's solution is to ape the far right

What a pathetic way to address the issue of asylum seekers, playing the race card - sad, and disgusting

Here’s your Epstein Hoax

Ellie Chowns, "People are frustrated with the problems of the country"

"It's inequality, not immigration, at the root of that"

"There are very irresponsible, dark forces, whipping up hatred"

Stripping refugees of their jewelry is part of a cruel new anti-asylum plan by the British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood.

@zoejardiniere.bsky.social leading campaigner on immigration and asylum policy, writes that Mahmood’s policy is pandering to the far-right.

Lots of Labour MPs asking Mahmood tonight to rule out child detention. She won’t rule it out. That’s because forced removals of families will mean children in detention for periods.

Home Office ruling out deportation of lone minors but the changes will certainly mean more detention of children.

the guardian have rewritten entire stories bcos jk rowling threw a hissy on twitter.
