Afghan, Kurdish & Sudanese refugees are living in tents around Calais - while Ukrainians are being offered hostels.

French police are known to chase, kick and discard of their property

It’s a racist policy that’s ostracising people who need help.

Keir Starmer jibes that in the Gorton and Denton, the Conservatives achieved a miserable 1.9% of the vote.

A by-election he...err...lost.

YouTube is good example of what’s wrong with Starmer’s ban.

V adaptable platform, could have added “learning mode”.

Blanket ban feels premature. All internet=bad rather than thoughtful response to rise of harmful content.

Suppose fewer teens will watch Rest is Politics now?

Who briefed that Silicon Valley owns your Face ID data?

Concern should be platforms that track/store your face for filters. Or collects/stores your location. If you’re letting apps track that, ask yourself: why?

[Ava-Santina @AvaSantina]

Wes Streeting sat between his former ministerial aide Joe Morris and former PPS Rosie Wrighting.

Both resigned last week citing lack of confidence in Starmer.

Interesting Morris has written for the Hexham Courant this morning. He said Burnham is one of Labour’s most talented voices.
