@a_webb @secrettory12 There is no huge influx. We take far fewer refugees than other major European countries. This is just an immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 30s, and I’m out of order?

[Luke Billingham @lbilli91]

Where do we locate the cause of complex social problems like violence?
Too often we reach for "bounded receptacles for blame"- one word or one phrase answers that explain away the issue ("gangs", "single mothers", "drill"), often situating responsibility in those with least power

I want to lead an agenda for real change.

Change in the Health Service.

Change in helping people through the cost of living crisis.

I want to lead for everyone.

I want to be a First Minister for all.

This was in Hackney. Utterly appalling.
