Andy Burnham, Britain's next prime minister, voted in favour of home secretary Shabana Mahmood’s authoritarian immigration bill last night.

He did so even after more than 80 Labour backbenchers wrote to warn him that the party is “losing progressive voters” due to Mahmood’s authoritarian stance.

The bill means successful asylum seekers, once they start earning, will be charged up to £10k for any accommodation and financial support they received while waiting for their claims to be processed. People awaiting a decision on their asylum claim in the UK are generally not allowed to work, meaning they have little choice but to accept state help.

Rights groups have condemned the policy as an “extra tax on refugees” fleeing war, torture and persecution. Child asylum seekers whose claims aren’t resolved until after they turn 18 will also be liable.

The immigration and asylum bill passed its second reading in the House of Commons with 264 votes to 90 on Monday evening, with 14 Labour MPs rebelling.

The new legislation will make it easier for the government to deport people seeking asylum in the UK by tightening the application of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights – which protects the right to private and family life – in order to make it more difficult to appeal asylum decisions.

It will replace immigration judges with a new system of independent adjudicators in an attempt to speed up decision-making and cut backlog. However, Amnesty International criticised the move as “the first time the system has been made less independent and less professional”.

Apsana Begum, MP for Poplar and Limehouse, posted on X that she had voted against the bill because its provisions are “performative and cruel”.

Mahmood announced further amendments to the bill on Monday that included plans to allow the deportation of long-term Commonwealth citizens convicted of serious crimes – like the leader of the Rochdale grooming gang.

Burnham officially secured the Labour leadership on Monday after receiving an extra 27 nominations from MPs. His total is now 349, meaning no other candidate can reach the 81 needed to enter a leadership contest.

הביטו בסרטון.
בחייל שמקלל, מתעמר וזורק רימון הלם לתוך רכב פלסטיני. כך נראה הכיבוש הישראלי.

​אל תגנו. אל תפטרו אותנו באמירה שהחייל צריך לעמוד לדין. נכון, חלק מהחיילים אלימים יותר וחלק פחות. חלק הם אפילו כובשים "נאורים" שמפגינים בכיכר וצועקים בגרון ניחר ד-מ-ו-ק-ר-ט-י-ה (כלומר, ליהודים בלבד). אבל בסוף זו הכל סמנטיקה. כי כולם משרתים את אותו כיבוש אלים ודכאני. את אותה מערכת עליונות גזענית שמנשלת, מגרשת, גונבת ורוצחת את הפלסטינים.

Elbit Systems has boasted its technology helps Israel identify 1000 targets a day for its genocide in Gaza and illegal war on Lebanon. Sickening.

Yet, the British government allows Elbit to operate in Britain and export weapons components to Israel (1/4)

Director of a Gaza Hospital, Dr Hussain Abu Safiya is in horrific danger to his life.

The Foreign Secretary must demand Israel provides urgent treatment and releases him.

He's been detained by Israel without charge since 2024 and reported to have new life threatening injuries.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

🚨We are deeply alarmed by the reports that there is an imminent threat to Dr. #HussamAbuSafiya’s life as a result of torture and other ill treatment he has been suffering while in Israeli custody. Israeli authorities must immediately and unconditionally release Dr. Abu Safiya. Pending his release, we call on the Israeli Prison service to ensure he is fully protected from abuse, granted urgent adequate medical care and allowed immediate visitation by independent monitors.

Act now: https://t.co/vaPOQtMRC4

Nigel Farage is a grifter. He always has been and he's continuing to grift.

He knew he was heading towards a byelection anyway so has pulled the trigger early.

The people Vs the establishment?! Reform are literally part of the establishment.

Thames Water creditors ‘will bid for company even if it is nationalised’.

As owners, they will continue to extract returns, dump sewage, fleece captive customers

One-third of TW water bills cover cost of debt.

Need new beginning. Must nationalise.

Student loan promotion in England & Wales amounted to mis-selling, MPs say.

Students not clearly told that loan terms could change retrospectively.

Govt froze repayment threshold, forcing graduates to pay more.

Abolish Uni tuition fees, as in Scotland.

@premnsikka James Purnell lead Labours attack on the poorest and most vunerable in their despicable war on the poor: The campaign entitled "We're Closing In" - fear, vindictive labelling and punitive classification! This is an appalling sign for the future?

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Meet James Purnell. Andy Burnham's chief of staff.

He supported Iraq invasion; ex chair of Labour Friends of Israel; said that Winter Fuel Allowance and free bus passes should not be sacred; supported PFI, lie-detector tests for benefit claimants.

Next?

@YinonMagal The correct English translation to the expression in point 2, "little Jews" was done incorrectly by X.
The correct translation to English from Hebrew is "Jew boy" and in Eastern European languages Zyd or Zydok. I leave u to contemplate what it implies on Yinon Magal.

Israel is running a network of torture camps for Palestinians. Our reports, Welcome to Hell and Living Hell, extensively documented a reality of extreme violence, starvation, and torture.

Palestinian prisoners are subjected to severe violence, deliberate humiliation, starvation, sleep deprivation, denial of medical care, and abuse in every facility where they are held. 

These abusive practices are fully backed by the political leadership, which openly boasts about the harsh prison conditions. Some inmates are subjected to severe sexual assaults. 

At least 89 Palestinians have died in Israeli detention facilities since October 2023 as a result of inhumane conditions, violence, starvation, and the denial of medical treatment. 

Despite the extensive evidence, media investigations, and reports issued by Israeli and international organizations documenting torture in Israeli prisons, the international community continues to stand by and allow Israel to commit crimes against the Palestinian people.

This Governments branding of protest as 'terrorism' has seen grandparents arrested and dragged through the courts simply for holding up signs.

It's deeply authoritarian when people are speaking out against a genocide and for a free Palestine.

The second trial, with eight of the Filton 25, has begun today at the Old Bailey.

However, security are denying entry to all the family members and loved ones, demanding they have two forms of ID.

This rule has never been used before, and is clearly an intimidation tactic.
