Exactly. My point is that this is likely to be a performative more bark than bite policy in practice.I doubt very much that there’ll be resources to quibble over the value (sentimental or cash)far less have someone stuffing envelopes to send to Cash4Gold!

Not sure they will walk back BUT the practicalities will likely make the reality different as in Denmark. Their law states jewellery >€1500 - are we going to employ a valuation jeweller to police that? And not for items with sentimental value- who can judge that except the owner?

Mihnea Cuibus @migobs.bsky.social on #Newsnight describes Denmark’s 2016 jewelry 💍 law & the message:

“… in a very general sense refugees were not welcome in Denmark…”

Shabana Mahmood is desperately courting Reform voters by apeing Denmark’s racist policies.

What’s next? 🦷 Labour branded pliers?

What a good boy!

Funny how it can be diagnosed via genetics after death but the living have to undergo hours of interview

gossip is being published for clicks?

This is slightly tangential but part of the problem is the Lobby system where sources are unattributable which undermines credibility to those of us not in Westminster. In an age of trying to differentiate misinformation from truth, surely more should be done to counter the perception that

I’ve never known anyone, far left or otherwise,advocate for no controls/ unfettered immigration as stated by @ayeshahazarika.bsky.social on #Newsnight

@pollybillington.bsky.social good performance on Newsnight - Labour need to get you on more things. Speaking fluently and with passion

Talk about trying to flog a dead horse to get reaction. Paddy O’Connell is awful #Newsnight

He refused to hand his phone over

They veer from one extreme to the other re comms; from taking ages to comment thereby allowing non-Govt narratives to take hold to briefing about something that BEFORE it’s happened!

Barry Gardiner is right #Newsnight

Any odds on Dame Louise Casey for DG of the BBC?

Typo alert: Robert JENKINS at end of para that starts Christmas come early for Tories

And even if she didn’t then, she had another opportunity after the Trump/Zelenskyy debacle in the Oval Office when it was obvious Europe had to step up defence.

Zia Yusuf slow blinks & twitching eye = tired. He’ll quit citing exhaustion again #Newsnight

One of the highlights was Rory taking Gove to task on arrogantly believing he knows better than someone who has been immersed in a subject!

What’s life without knee jerk legislation?

Plymouth Brethren although in reality they are permitted to use computers for work purposes, they’ll exploit in the same way they register everything church-centric as a charity.

Goodness, that jawline has had a lot of help since that picture was taken!

See Rupert Lowe MP’s interview on Talk TV prior to the press conference where he used intemperate language & blamed immigrants. I doubt he’ll be pursued for a revised opinion after spewing his vitriol into the world.
