Replaced with telephone canvassing
Committee rooms disappeared

When I worked at the Port it was well known that Special Branch officers tended to go around in threes.
Apparently one could read.
One could write.
And the third kept an eye on the two intellectuals.

But surely they're arriving there from a safe country? So Ireland should send them back to us shouldn't they? Isn't that the Conservative party line?

A. See Common Tavel Area agreement of 1922 + Good Friday Agreement relating to 'hard border'.
Just been reliably (?) informed that owners (not local) of Five Bells at Ringwould are looking to close pub and turn it into 'accomodation' for the Home Office.

Mostly Vietnamese apparently (a country which my brother was cycling through last month!) - no excuse for the Taoiseach not to have decent nails now!
Looking forward to Biden saying something stupid and irrelevant. He usually does!

Too little, too late.

Just out of interest, the £3000 from HMG to make a voluntary departure has existed (though the amount has changed over time) for as long as I can remember.

STOP PRESS!
Extraordinary! Fresh off the press.

The Times reports that Labour is to offer an amnesty to all Channel boat migrants who arrived from March last year until the year end ( between 90,000-115,000) by allowing them to apply for asylum for the first time.
This would mean tens of thousands more migrants could settle here, but more importantly will encourage many more to try their luck from around the world.
Starmer has clearly gone quite mad and for the first time given the Tories an open goal.

He's got a point!
'Donald Trump has claimed London has become “unrecognisable” because it has “opened its doors to jihad” as he pledged not to let the same happen in the United States.
The former president said that British “culture” had been eroded by tolerance of pro-Palestine protesters in London and Paris'. Telegraph.

lol. LOL even.
British culture was first eroded by US 'culture' as a prelude to the remainder's erosion by other cultures.
London opened its doors to the cheeseburger.
