If the moderators think all political threads should be merged then why not have a separate political forum? A man lying about military service isn't political, it just so happens he is a local council candidate. It deserves its own thread.

It was worth a separate thread imo. The Conservative candidate is lying about serving in the Falklands, which is nothing to do with Windrush. The only reason it was mentioned on the Windrush thread is because it is in Hastings, and another Conservative caught out in lies. Sorry Titanic, you...

Unfortunately, some of the families are selling genuine medals on Ebay as the veterans die off. The WW2 medals were so numerous, they didn't have names engraved on them.

Walter Mitty. I wonder if he bought medals on EBay.

I saw that on BBCSouthEast. He claimed to have been in the Falklands with 2Para, but has been caught out.

You just beat me too it. Here's the link to the Standard article. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/politics/theresa-may-refused-to-budge-on-quotas-for-foreign-medics-after-cabinet-ministers-pleas-for-more-a3828141.html Trying to run down the NHS so more of it is privatised. This woman is...

Without a doubt.

I agree Theresa May is in this up to her neck, but Amber Rudd has been caught out lying just this week, so no sympathy from me.

BBC Breakfast reporting 35 NHS Trusts complaining to the Home Office for refusing visas for Indian doctors, who are urgently needed.

No, the nasty racist Tories have been trying to remove LEGAL immigrants.

Proof that the Home Office set a target of deporting 12,000 immigrants each year. It seems they aimed to hit that regardless of anyone's circumstances. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-43902599?S

69 year old Canadian woman moved from Canada to Wolverhampton in 1971, got married, had three children and worked for the local council for more than 25 years as a dinner lady, meals on wheels driver, lollipop lady and cleaner. A spinal injury a few years ago meant she had to give up her job...

Immigration Act 2014 - Labour were not in power. Theresa May was the Home Office minister https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2014/22/contents

Amber Rudd and Theresa May to resign to start off with, although with TM, it's probably better the devil you know. It would be even worse if JRM or BoJo became PM. How many illegal immigrants came in? We have a Border Force who can do their jobs well. Do you mean legal migration which the...

You've got a darn sight more confidence in them than I have. This has been going on for over 4 years, and they're only doing something now, because they've been caught out. It's easy to say sorry, it's something else to put it right. They haven't even sorted out the poor residents of Grenfell...

No. Theresa May changed the rules in 2014.

Some of the discussion on this thread related to what is a British citizen. This is a thread on Twitter from Arthur Snell who was the British High Commissioner in Trinidad & Tobago in 2011. His wife had a baby son whilst they were in Trinidad. He couldn't issue his own son's passport so he sent...

Theresa May and Paul Dacre are very pally. Gone are the days when the press held government to account.

Back on topic whilst the usual suspects are busy points scoring over each other. https://twitter.com/theJeremyVine/status/987658890069364736 987658890069364736

Just as things were getting very uncomfortable for May & the Home Office, miraculously some records have been found. Forgive me for being sceptical, but if this is true, it makes things worse imo. People have lost their jobs, refused cancer treatment, refused entry for funerals, denied entry...
