Nigel farage wants you to think that Britain has an immigration problem.

It doesn't.

Britain had a problem with millionaires hoarding wealth, egged on by politicians and the press.

Britain has a problem with racism.

Britain has a @Nigel_Farage problem.

RT if you agree.

@implausibleblog "Nigel Farage would get a much bigger tax cut under his plans than his chauffer"

This has to be the quote of the day.

[Diane Abbott @HackneyAbbott]

Rishi Sunak belatedly admitted Frank Hester’s remarks that “I made him hate all black woman and should be shot” were racist. Now it turns out Sunak accepted a further £5 million from him. An insult to me and all black women.

@john_holford @John__Field @ProfJulieAllan @AlanTuckett @tomschuller48 @EPALE_EU I am so very sad that John has gone. I'll never forget his kindness as external examiner for my PhD. He made it feel safe, like I had something important and useful to say as a novice. Such generosity of spirit and intellect, and such inspirational writing

[John Holford @john_holford]

I can't think of anyone more highly regarded in #adulteducation, as person or scholar, than @John__Field. He was also a warm and generous man. I'm devastated to hear he's gone from us. What a loss! But he's left so much too.@ProfJulieAllan @AlanTuckett @tomschuller48 @EPALE_EU

[tom schuller @tomschuller48]

@john_holford @John__Field @ProfJulieAllan @AlanTuckett @EPALE_EU real shock and great loss. I'll be writing a tribute to John for Convergence - if anyone wants to send me something I might include, pl do so to [email protected]

[Geoff Layer @LayerGeoff]

A tragic loss. I first worked with him when he was a Northern College and during the miners strike. He was an inspiration to those of us working in adult education and a great friend. You will be missed for your work, your friendship and for being you. RiP John
