Excellent! It looks like I’m about to become the first journalist taken to Rwanda by @SuellaBraverman who hasn’t been specially selected to file propaganda & puff pieces. Thank you, Daily Mail, for your assistance in this matter…

@MayorofLondon@YouGov I wonder if the mayor ever clocks the irony of his own tweets - talking about the impact of the cost of living crisis while he raises his portion of the council tax by an unprecedented amount, increases the cost of public transport & pushes ahead with ULEZ. Zero self awareness.
Nobody crosses the channel in a dinghy unless they are utterly desperate.
We must make the moral case for a humane asylum system grounded in dignity, empathy and care.
The only way we can defeat a politics of hatred is with a politics of compassion.
Worth remembering that very right-wing oligarchs own The Times, The Sun, The Mail, The Telegraph (& the Sunday editions), the Spectator, GBeebies, Talk TV & the Conservative Party. The Express pursues their agenda for financial reasons. And they're all terrified of Gary Lineker.
BTW - the idea that refugees/asylum seekers don’t settle in countries nearest to those from which their escaping is BS. The UN’s register of displaced people gives this list of countries with most refugees:
Turkey - 3.7M
Colombia - 1.7M
Uganda - 1.5M
Lebanon-1.5M
Pakistan-1.4M
I'd like to thank Gary for his bravery and humanity, standing up for what he believes in, upsetting the 'closet racist' simply by mentioning refugees
So much more fukked up shit happening in the UK, somehow this made all the Kunts come out of their caves @GaryLineker#GaryLineker
@ToryFibs @JasonReidUK Should you not make comparisons with Germany in the 1930s even when your government starts using the language of Germany in the 1930s? What about when they start censoring people challenging them?
@gavinesler If the BBC are impartial why are they punishing Lineker. Or don't they know the meaning of being impartial? Besides,he tweeted in his capacity as a private citizen. The BBC have shown who pull their strings. Tories and the Daily Mail. Their cowardice is shameful.
@gavinesler Chair of BBC will absolutely have to go. And they'll be an unstoppable level of support for GL with others making their views known I imagine. Existential issue for the BBC.
@gavinesler If we allow the Government to interfere with the BBC and influence decisions about what a presenter such as Gary Lineker can say in his own time and the fact he didn’t say anything on air leaves the freedom of speech in dire consequences. If GL can be silenced what next?
@markhod45442772 @JulesBywaterLee@mikecosgrove@DeborahMeaden Just returned from 2 weeks in Spain - there’s absolutely no food shortages there whatsoever and everything is at least 40-50% cheaper in Supermarkets and grocery stores
