@StevenEdginton Intrepid investigation by Steve Edginton shows why the toxic Home Office needs to be swiftly broken up. Otherwise its determination to place religious sectarianism at the heart of policy-making is likely to result in catastrophic strife.

Macron is given the armlock by Le Pen. She only consents to pass his bill if benefits are withheld from legal immigrants not for 6 months but for 5 years. It means paying into the welfare system in 🇫🇷 won't be a joke as it increasingly is in 🇬🇧 .

@hurryupharry @KingsCollegeLon Chilling large assembly outside King's College London. What's around the corner? One thing is for sure: it won't be a robust condemnation of extremist politics invading the portals of the university from any of its rubber-spined leaders.

SNP's No 2 at Westminster announces that she is stepping down as an MP at the next election. Tiredness is cited by the 28-year-old as an explanation. Could it be that someone who enjoyed a shock landslide victory in 2015 is reluctant to make fresh headlines in 2024...when the
