I'm surprised you haven't commented on Robert Jenrick yet. You could pick any of his lovely quotes in Farrukh's tweet, but the first one is just so.......Brexit.

"We traded freedom of movement with the EU, for free movement with the rest of the world" - leave voter R. Jenrick.
And even that, he's actually wrong. We left the EU, then put together an Australia-style points-based immigration structure. We didn't close the door to the EU and open the door to the rest of the world like he suggests with this quote. What we did was tighten up legal immigration across the board, but more so for EU than RoW.

If, the end game for the Rwanda shambles is to remove the UK from the ECHR, and they truly believe that the majority of the UK population wants their Human Rights to be at the whim of the Government, why not call a GE, and make it a manifesto pledge.

Is there really any difference between the current Government cabal and the swivel-eyed loons of Reform/UKIP ?

It appears from today none other than trying to keep a job :lolol:

So Cameron's attempts to paper over the cracks in his party, by giving the country a referendum has worked wonderfully. And the result is that the infighting in the conservative party continues 8 years on, whilst Britain continues to be completely f***ed over in the aftermath.

“Toute nation a le gouvernement qu’elle mérite.”

And if ever it that statement needed confirmation, the British electorate have proven it. Well done everyone :clap:

We've just had another Tory resignation over tonight's vote.

Jane Stevenson, who served as PPS to Business and Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch, has confirmed she has quit after defying the government and voting for the Cash and Jenrick amendments.

The rebels have shown they do have the numbers to torpedo Sunak tomorrow. Could be a big day ... one that I suspect could be a lose-lose one for Sunak. Either he gets holed below the waterline by the rebels, or he caves in to them and the centrists in the party do it instead.

Not sure how he finds a credible way out of this.

I think the credibility train left the station quite a long time ago.

I notice Johnson is stirring the shit from the sidelines.

Reckon the rebels will bottle it and it will pass. then HOL will intervene, amend, delay...

Cue Daily Mail....Enemies of the People, Parliament versus the People, usual BS....
 


Of course the rebels will bottle it. The bill will pass the third reading and then the LordS will rip it apart. Meanwhile I'll continue to email 30p Lee , Suella, James, Bill Cash and the rest of the f******ts to justify andxask for evidence each time they say " the overwhelming majority of the public ". Thus far no responses, still it makes me happy !!

Just far enough away from LDC
Its a strange world when people one cant stand start making sense.

For example, Dominic Cumnings has said that the rwanda plan was originally an extreme diversion. Invented to try and scare the extremists into looking at the real issue amd facing up to the fact that immigration is hard and needs compromises. However it has taken on a frankenstein like life of its own and the extremists believe it and sunak is pushing it

Secondly we have Kate Andrews of the spectator and formerly tax payers alliance, tufton st etc tearing Richard Tice a new one when challenging him that the uk needs immigration to function effectively with c1m vacancies in key areas

Is there a way of making a FoI type request of a politician? That would at least get them to look?
