  1. #Rishi, call an #ElectionNow so we can show you exactly what we think of your #RwandaDeportation plan and get rid of you and the #fascist scumbag party you represent. We won't forget #grenfell or the #lockdownparties or #brexit or any of the other thousand idiotic decisions that the #Tories have made these last 14 years. #ToriesOutNow theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a

  2. @catdad @Shivviness
    You are right. He has no mandate for this. It is performative cruelty, and we don't want it.

  3. Instead of looking at the issues that create depression: poverty, poor physical health, loneliness, robotic underpaid work, exploitation by employers…the #Tory government attacks the individual and GPs.

    It’s so painfully predictable.

  4. So Tory Donor, Frank Hester has 'apologised' about what he said about Diane Abbott, saying “the criticism had nothing to do with her gender nor the colour of her skin”.

    This is despite him specifically mentioning her gender and the colour of her skin.

  5. Of course, because what the country is calling out for is yet another unelected, unaccountable prime minister!

    @olliefrancis On the plus side, at least 30p Lee has gone. We just need the rest of them to go now. #GTTO #ElectionNow

    I wish Sunak would declare a May election coinciding with local elections.

    While he's at it:
    Do away with the antequated / useless first past the post (#FPTP) system & bring in proportional representation (#FPRP) to give other parties a chance;
    Voting age down to 16; Compulsory voting;
    Voting on a Sunday.

    Both the Tories and Labour are one & the same party these days, can't be trusted, & are not worthy to run the country.

  9. OMG - a Tory MP with principles!!!

    "Conservative MP Chris Skidmore says he will stand down as an MP next week in protest at plans to issue more oil and gas licences.

    The former minister said he was resigning as a Tory MP ahead of a vote on a bill on Monday that would guarantee annual licensing rounds.

    The move will trigger a by-election in his Kingswood seat in Gloucestershire."

  10. @JugglingWithEggs That ship is yet another indicator of the sheer vindictiveness and cruelty of this government. It’s a shameful stain on the UK. #GTTO #ElectionNow

  11. Reports are coming in that the odious immigration minister Robert Jenrick has resigned, effectively throwing his toys out of the pram because his illegal Rwanda plans have been deemed, er, illegal. Good riddance. #Jenrick #Rwanda #immigation #Torychaos #electionnow

  15. Let's just call her by her real name shall we...

    Cruella Trumperman... she's a right wing fascist POS who has no place in govt at all, let alone any kind of position of power over other people.

    If you have a govt and they give a seat at the table to right wing fascist... you now have a fascist govt. Acceptance of them, enabling them... makes you one too.

  16. Best quote I've seen so far about 'Suella Braverman'

    'Cruella Braverman is a self proclaimed 'bhuddist, who follows the teachings of Joseph Goebbels'

    A nazi is still a nazi, no matter how they dress up their hate and fascism.

  17. When a government undertakes a wholesale campaign against those who can give us justice, this is called #fascism

    In the #UK the attack on #LeftyLawyers by #Sunak and his government shows their weakness, their only defence is to destroy #Justice for people, destroy #HumanRights and destroy our country

    Even my local #MP #AlexChalk (he's previously been a moderate), this week was defending #30pLee that we should send #refugees back to France

  18. Please offer your support for Jacqueline Mackenzie & all the hard working legal teams who are fighting to support #Refugees & #AsylumSeekers

    She was subject to a "flagrant attack on me and my work, built on misinformation and mischaracterisation and underpinned by racism and misogyny, (it) is a dark day for our political sphere"

  19. #HomeOffice #UK spending more resources on a few rogue immigration advisors, after a Daily Mail article.

    Instead they should be dealing with the 92k backlog of applications, leaving some of the most vulnerable people in desperate situations for years, when they could be working and contributing to our country.

  20. Tories aim low on environmental climate policies and deliver…barely anything.

    ‘A scheme to reduce packaging, a deposit return plan for plastic bottles, a boost for recycling and a tree planting and woodland creation programme have all been given a “red” rating by Whitehall’s major projects body. It concluded that their successful delivery “appears unachievable”.’

  21. #Sunak yet again shows himself to be a climate delayer who thinks he can ignore his party’s recent climate COP pledges and the plight of 25 Commonwealth countries who are island nations…not to mention the rest of the Global South who are already paying the price of climate breakdown.

    Make no mistake, this is the short sighted agenda of the ultra wealthy. There is fossil fuel and dark money funding this position.

  22. This is encouraging news during #RefugeeWeek that most Brits contrary to Tory rhetoric actually wants to welcome refugees.

    We need people to vote with their heart not their supposed wallets (although quite why anyone would think after 13 years of austerity and cost of living crisis the Tories make them better off is beyond me…).

  23. Did they get the work experience lad to think up these talking points on #Brexit benefits?

    The man and woman in the street have noticed no difference whatsoever in prices of beer and tampons and ‘Freeports’ (is that what we’re calling them again this week?) were always possible when we were in the EU.

    We’re told one week we’ve got to accept we are poorer and not demand cost of living wage increases and the next everything is rosy.

  26. #FarRight protesters clash with police at Merseyside hotel housing #AsylumSeekers

    This is NOT REPRESENTATIVE of the good people of #Merseyside. I live close to Merseyside and have found folk there to be amongst the most welcoming and kind people in the UK.

    These actions follow a constant drip of scare stories and demonisation of #refugees and #migrants from the #DailyMail #Express and certain members of our own #FarRightTory government.

  30. 2 years waiting time for cancer treatment referral !?

    I sent this graph to my South Ribble Tory MP Katherine Fletcher with the simple question:

    "Can she please explain the trend of rapidly rising NHS waiting times under Conservative government and rapidly falling waiting times under Labour"

    She failed even to attempt to answer the question and instead trotted out a series of 'jam tomorrow' Tory promises.

    One very worrying statement was:

    "By 2025, no one should be waiting more than a year for elective care in the NHS, and waiting times for referral to treatment for cancer care should return to pre-pandemic levels. Having met its target that no one should be waiting longer than two years"

    2 years waiting time for a referral for cancer treatment? really!?
