Why is government announcing major political/ legal decisions when they’re actively changing the leader.

Not to mention how inhumane this policy is! Regular, untrained, people are not nuanced on international asylum claims!

Illogical

@laurenbarrettt The hospital is 5 mins up from the ground, perfect away fixture 😂

Why am I seeing people pretending to like Starmer all of a sudden? Just because he’s finally leaving.
He was a bang average PM who was an atrocious communicator. He put the wrong people in the top jobs and pandered too much to the right.

I won’t miss him 🤷🏻‍♂️

Meet the Copenhagener, Mads Mikkelsen.

150 years of Kjøbenhavns Boldklub is not only a story about football.
It is a story about Copenhagen. About ambition. About daring to believe that where you come from should never define how far you can go.

That is why Mads Mikkelsen became part of our tribute to KB’s 150-year anniversary on April 26th. As the voice of our campaign film, he helped tell the story of a club shaped by generations of Copenhageners — and of the city that shaped them in return.

Because Mads embodies the spirit of KB.
Rooted in Copenhagen. Respected far beyond it.

From the streets of this city to one of the most remarkable careers in Danish cultural history, he stands as proof that talent means little without dedication, and that big dreams begin with the courage to pursue them.

For 150 years, KB has been a place for those who dare to aim higher.

Seeing a lot of negativity, but a lot of the issues we faced last season were because we let a rookie manager have free rein.

Those last games Stead and Drury were in charge were the most exciting games we played all season.

I’m happy to back him #UTT #HTAFC

[Pete O'Rourke @SportsPeteO]

Huddersfield are set to confirm Martin Drury as permanent manager with Jon Stead as his assistant after impressing in interim charge at the back end of last season. #htafc

@ekachunga15 @CambridgeUtdFC Congrats on the promotion! My wife was buzzing to see you at the Gillingham game when we were visiting family in Kent.

When you see the relentless attacks from other parties on the Greens across the media remember this:

They hate our plan to end Rip Off Britain.

They don't want a wealth tax.

They don't want public ownership & lower bills.

They're trying everything in their power to stop us.

[Tony @TonyUpNorth]

People are happy to live near migrants, people aren’t however, happy to live near concentration camps. Bit of a difference Zia, you know that, but you’re just chasing a headline aren’t you…

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

I must say I am *shocked* at how many of the highly ‘virtuous and kind’ left wing media and establishment politicians have revealed they view living near asylum seekers is a “punishment”.

Whoever would have thought!

[Tony @TonyUpNorth]

Now we’re being threatened with concentration camps on our doorsteps if we don’t vote Reform.

I won’t be intimidated into voting for a hateful, divisive party on Thursday. I’ll be voting for hope, not hate.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Today we announce a new policy:

In order to deport all illegal migrants in Britain, Reform will need to detain tens of thousands at a time.

Migrants will not be able to leave these detention centres, and each will be held there a couple of weeks before being deported.

So here’s our promise:

A Reform government will not put any migrant detention facilities in any constituency with a Reform MP.

Nor will we put them where Reform controls the council.

And of the remaining areas, we will prioritise Green controlled parliamentary constituencies and Green controlled councils to locate the detention centres.

Put simply, if you vote in a Reform council or Reform MP, we guarantee you won’t have a detention centre near you.

If you vote Green, there’s a good chance you will.

This is an important exercise in democratic consent, not just for our mass deportation policy, but for where the detention centres are placed.

Given @ZackPolanski openly advocates for open borders, I look forward to their warm embrace of this policy.

@IanJon407 @DeborahMeaden Then people can’t winge about falling living standards, a widening wealth gap, and a large welfare system.

If employers don’t pay employees enough to live, then the state has to prop them up, at the taxpayers expense.

You’re choosing to back corporate profits over workers

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Can we be clear about what Keir Starmer is saying here?

If I’m on a protest against Palestinians being murdered, and someone on that protest says “Globalise the Intifada”:

That means I am calling for terrorism against Jews?

Are they any limits to this insanity?

@IanJon407 @DeborahMeaden So the bar staff should live in poverty so the landlord, or brewery, can turn a profit?

@BrimfulOfAshia We’re tier 3 now, so same as the blokes

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

Keir Starmer thinks a retweet should disqualify someone from leading a political party, but that appointing the best ‘pal’ of the world’s most notorious paedophile, as Ambassador to Washington, shouldn’t.

Be serious!

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

A retweet by Zack Polanski is now the main story across every single media outlet.

Two days ago, it was revealed that Nigel Farage failed to disclose a £5 million gift from a crypto-billionaire.

It gets nowhere near the media attention, for straightforward political reasons.

[Tony @TonyUpNorth]

@bcafcwin Gotta take what you can get when we’ve had another miserable season, had to put up with shite for 9 out of the last 10 years 🙈
At least you guys are still scrapping for something!
