Since 1980, the ECHR has heard just 29 UK immigrant deportation case, and the UK won 16 of them. Quitting will make no material difference to immigration, just weaken protections for absolutely everybody in this country. But Farage and the Tories know that.

Labour has a chance now to turn a corner and win support from people who want it to succeed. Or it can continue with this type of vicious populist filth and alienate everyone. It's your call guys. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

So can we expect a 15 minute "exclusive" slot on the News at 10 or Newsnight reporting this article? I won't hold my breath.

Trump at the UN: "I look at London where you have a terrible mayor... Now they want to go to Sharia law." This is entirely false. London Mayor Sadiq Khan is politically moderate and has never ever called for Sharia law. This is Islamophobic propaganda and a bigoted attack on Khan.

These people should remember that, in all likelihood, their ancestors were being accused of similar nonsense, in a city which has been shaped by wave upon wave of mass migration. Thank providence for the people who fought back and ensured Liverpool remains a warm,welcoming place

Another so-called "Save Our Women and Children" gathering in Liverpool next Sunday. Many of the participants of this march are who our women and children need saving from 😡 I stand with Scouse Nans against Nazis, doing what our pandering media and politicians should be doing.

Schrödinger's ethnic minority Brit, in 2025...

Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday. I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric. Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

Can anyone explain why the Government is still doing most of its communications through a website whose owner is now openly rallying the far right to trigger a violent insurrection on our streets?

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before. Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

meanwhile, in Nuneaton

Aaaand they’ve just covered it up. Which is just another layer of irony… …given that this is state action against protest about state action against protest.

If rampant nativism and the self-immolating Labour party do somehow conspire to put Farage's brownshirts in Number 10, this substanceless dross should become a case study in how the fourth estate comprehensively failed us all. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is an excellent Associated Press piece - both dispassionate and accurate. Written for an American audience, it shows how slavishly #Farage has adopted #Trump tactics. The lies, exaggerations, incitement of the easily-led... Please read, and even better, share! 👍🏻 share.google/tExjdQt9olyY...

I’ve been frustrated to see so much of the ongoing story about asylum seekers and the protests against them covered without hearing from those seeking asylum and now being met with hostility and hatred I set out to speak to those directly affected to find out about the impact this is having 👇

Lucy Connolly, a woman who admitted inciting racial hatred after using social media to post about setting fire to hotels housing asylum seekers is to speak at the Reform UK Conference today. That spells out all you need to know about Reform UK and their dangerous, hateful agenda.

This is vile. Local guy speaks to Sky News about the impact of asylum seekers protests. Watch what happens and share widely

Labour are not learning the one lesson that’s destroying them. Doing what the right wing want, does not appease the right wing or appeal the right wing voters, and trying to alienates everyone else. It’s like they have a moron or infiltrator pulling the strings. Oh, they do, McSweeney.

Letters in The Times that sum up Labour’s deeply inadequate response to the perceived immigration ‘crisis’. Cruelty as policy and performative patriotism to try to pacify (rather than challenge) the frothing right wing press and the baying racist mob. It’s all just so gutless and wrong.

NEW: A devastating before and after montage of Rasheed Street in Gaza City. Put together by local photojournalist, Motaz Azaiza.

I want Keir Starmer to lead - to call out racism, not mutter about bunting. To offer real refugee policy, not parrot Farage. To show Britain is better than this. Instead we’re cowering. We must do better. They must do better.

Brexit - championed by Farage - has been a significant factor in many of the UK’s problems - it’s time UK news shows and Labour started pointing that out youtu.be/be3b8RkMqvs?...

No, Lord Falconer. Labour should stop pandering to this nonsense. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Brexit has done more damage to the UK economy than “illegal immigration” I am sick of bullshit.

This man is clinically insane. How can a president of the United States be so stupid? How do his sycophants look at themselves in the mirror every morning with any self-respect?

Israel double tap strike. It murders journalists then sends a drone in to kill the paramedics trying to retrieve their bodies. A war crime, broadcast live and sponsored by the US and Europe. 🚨Boycott EVERY news channel that doesn’t show this footage today🚨

Listen to this success story! 💙 It's a decade since Syrian refugees arrived in Germany. Today, they're an indispensable part of the German workforce – especially in medicine! This is what the media SHOULD be showing you, instead of constantly pandering to the racists who just spread doom and gloom.

This is what I LOVE about Nigel Farage! 😍😍😍😍😍

So if I've understood this 'Raise The Colours' thing correctly, it's about intimidating immigrants, causing criminal damage, shouting racist abuse, costing local authorities money and generally behaving like a brainless tit.

It's not asylum seekers who jack up rents, undermine the NHS, hold down wages and keep people insecure. It's capital. The role of the far right is to shift the blame for decades of economic attacks by the rich and powerful onto powerless people who have only just arrived here.

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

The final sentence says it all ".....to hide their real motive – straight-up racism".

The UK Emergency Alerts system will be tested on 7 Sept 2025 at 3pm. It shares warnings during emergencies like floods, wildfires and storms. Domestic abuse survivors with concealed phones might need to turn off alerts. Here's how you can opt out ⤵️ www.gov.uk/alerts/optin...

Just 1.5% of Universal Credit claimants are refugees. Someone should let Nigel Farage and his party know www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/jus...

Would anyone care to remind the former Human Rights Barrister Keir Starmer that penalising people seeking asylum for their manner of entry is against international law? Not to mention how grotesque it is that the Prime Minister is sharing videos of people being detained.

"Are you a terrorist?"

Aerial footage filmed by ITV News shows the scale of Gaza's destruction It’s estimated Gaza had as much, likely more, explosives dropped on it as Dresden, Hamburg and London in WW2 www.itv.com/news/2025-08...

New YouGov polling. A monumental failure of our political class to educate, a monumental failure of our media to report fairly, for a generation

Photo of the Day. Israel threatened reprisals if the press filmed Gaza from above during airdrops. This is why. A scene of destroyed & burnt out buildings in what is left of Gaza City, the pre-war home to 800,000 people. Credit to Post photographer Heidi Levine who defied the ban & took this.

Obvious point this, but people need to stop believing what they are told by Farage, GB News, and the general declinist and alarmist media narrative and start paying attention to what is really going on regarding crime in this country. The BBC and mainstream media have a duty to get the truth out.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Miriam Margolyes earlier this week for @bigissue.com. 🎤 The full interview will be out soon, but due to the latest news on Palestine today, I thought I’d share this clip early. 👇 Miriam Margolyes: “I feel it particularly because I’m Jewish”. 💬

DAILY MIRROR: Don't look away #TomorrowsPapersToday

Regret - if it’s genuine - usually leads to a change of behaviour... not for Israel, for obvious reasons. Cold blooded murder is all part of the plan, along with mass starvation and ethnic cleansing. When will the ‘International Order’ step in...?

I would expect this under a Tory govt. but under Labour? Not the party Ive voted for since I was 18. Bad enough being arrested - but then they go through your house, violate your personal space and paw the stuff most dear to you. For protesting against the murder of innocents? WTAF?

In 2025, you can watch a genocide live. It’s entirely right the media should report on Israel’s mass murder of Palestinians but “live feeds” sums up the horror: the world watches fellow human beings starve as those with power do nothing.

The UK must immediately recognise Palestinian statehood. There can be no two state solution if there is no viable state left to call Palestine.
