Under the proposed UK immigration rules, Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany would have had bwen reviewed every 2.5 years until the 1960s and once the war was over and Germany 'safe', they all would have been sent back to live in the country, that had recently murdered millions of their fellow Jews.

Why do Home Secretaries seem to get more evil and heartless with every iteration? Doesn’t matter what party they nominally belong to, they just seem to come up with horrendous ideas.

This makes me feel physically sick. No MP should support any of these measures until they have spent a month each working in asylum detention and with unhoused people. How dare she call this 'moral'? It's disgraceful.

There were 93 homicides in London last year: population 9 million In New York - population 8.5 million - there were 391. London's homicide figure is 6 times lower than LA, 9 times lower than Miami, 17 times lower than Chicago. And it's falling year on year despite the population increasing

The only Legitimate Concerns about asylum seekers are concerns for their well being and safety. For a rich country like ours to incessantly whine about these people as if we are their victims is perhaps the single most pathetic spectacle in British politics over the past quarter century.

Also tbh the idea that the average layperson can become expert enough in any field to have a nuanced and meaningful take on policy is frankly 98% of why we are in any given mess. No, a weekend of reading is not gonna make you an expert on anything and some they’all don’t even do that much.

There are at least four angles worthy of exploration: - The nature and severity of the attack. - The effects on arts and humanities research. - The aged and patchwork nature of the BL's IT estate which has made it hard to recover from. - The BL's commendable honesty in sharing lessons learned:

We head for Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday, and once again I am DISGUSTED by the sort of rancid bin juice of a mind that things a quiet dignified commemoration of the war dead and a way of collecting money for the injured and bereaved has been turned into a carnival of patriotic vulgarity.
