The MoU with Rwanda is now available. Can I just check I understand what happens to someone who has a valid asylum claim? It seems that they are removed to Rwanda where there claim is considered. If they are found to be a *refugee* they are expected to stay in Rwanda (Para 10) /1

If anything it's worse for Starmer than it is for the Tories. The de-regulationists don't care if we're divided or not. For them the Brexit opportunities are the de-regulation they wanted from the outset and which the very harms Brexit has caused are now being used to justify /7

As good an example as any of how judicial review can be used to hold government to account with an urgency and specificity that voting at general elections cannot achieve. Bear that in mind as the Govt looks to "reform" JR. A chance to help fund the litigation is downthread.

I’m at @chelseafc buying a kit for a 10 yo girl. When I get to printing, I’m asked if I want a Premier League patch. I say she’d rather have the Women’s super league. They say I’m not allowed that. I ask why and the rabbit hole opens /1

I see that the people who entirely understood that the PM couldn’t manage on his salary and had to get someone else to pay for his wallpaper are attacking an old lady for complaining she’s too poor to heat her home.

M'colleagues. I'm trying to put together a helpful "judge translation" list for those starting their second six. Suggestions/corrections welcome (or a pointer to @Wigapedia 's TL if he's already done this).

It will require Labour to put faith in us, the voters, to look beyond our instincts and the comforting self-empowerment of tough-talking and instead focus on what does and does not, in reality, work. I'd love to think we deserve that faith /end
