"Shutting the door on migrants coming here isn't going to look good on the UK"

As MPs set to vote on controversial new laws that will overhaul the whole immigration system, @catherine5news speaks to @sabir_zazai, a former refugee now helping those arriving in Britain get settled

@doolsy21 @sophielouisecc General accusations that people of a certain group (numbering 10,000s) are all potential sexual predators are not proven by such examples

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

@doolsy21 @sophielouisecc Congratulations, you have in no way proved her point

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

@sophielouisecc "All people from a group we don't like are potential sexual predators" is such a lazy, age-old trope, and just racist really...says a lot about the quality of your 'political commentary' 🥱

@danwootton It already survives and thrives in the commercial market you absolute tool - it is funded through advertisement and commercial operations without any taxpayer money

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

@ayeshahazarika It's fairly obvious he's referring to those on the ground who directly committed it - those suggesting otherwise are either doing so in bad faith or lack basic common sense

@TobiWhelan96 Reading your tweets

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

@thebigbogg What's the solution, short of wholescale structural change to the labour market? A more punitive sanction, or a stronger mechanism in the first place?

What a surprise that the Home Office is including small boat arrivals in its irregular migration statistics, despite 98% claiming asylum...one can only wonder why they want to elide asylum with irregular migration

@AlasdairMack66 I'm genuinely so ashamed Richard Ekins ever taught me. Even as undergrads he had a reputation for being smug and dismissive, brushing away alternative views without any explanation or reasoning

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

The determination to 'prove' that the people who drowned in November were not refugees but mere 'migrants', based on nothing more than a couple of quotes from bereaved relatives, is absolutely sickening

This is so incompatible with the refugee convention it beggars belief

Missed the polling where a key working class concern was the absence of summary executions in the street

@DanielJHannan You can't seriously be that misinformed about the academic profession given how much you and your cronies bang on about it

[Jack Beadsworth @BeadsworthJack]

@gracabi For the second part, the interplay between labour law and immigration law is highly relevant and interesting as far as excluding migrant groups from labour protections goes
'Migrants at work' (Freedland and Costello) is an exceptional book on this topic

Criminal law is fundamentally incapable of effectively tackling labour exploitation

Report today of Judge giving Albanian man 15 months for cannabis cultivation. “These cannabis farms are becoming a scourge in this country and they couldn’t operate without people like yourself.” (A man taken to the cannabis farm to repay £13k debt for being brought to the UK)
