A Jewish student at Cambridge University gives MEE a tour of the Cambridge Encampment for Gaza.

Just cannot understand why Tories keep returning to the idea of a net migration cap. It's completely abitrary - especially as you don't know how many people will emigrate in advance.

And it manifestly failed both in policy and political terms under Cameron.

1/3 🧵 Why don’t visas make (western) news and are not a hot topic in migration circles? 🤔

Yesterday the suspended entry visas for Ethiopian nationals because Ethiopia does not cooperate on returns.

If you think this makes perfect sense think again and read on 🙏

BREAKING: Labour’s Richard Parker pulls off shock victory in West Midlands, beating Tory incumbent Andy Street by a whisker, sources say.

Huge blow to Rishi Sunak - this was one of two mayoralties Downing Street had hoped would help turn round losing narrative.

Immigration is indeed political.

Not a problem, a challenge or a threat. Rather a political strategy with very human consequences.

The only consolation for this obscenity is the comments below the video and that they will still lose the elections.

Shame on you.

Surprising but true, Venice Art Biennale unveiled a mind-blowing presence of digital artworks alongside the traditional ones, proving that artists are seamlessly blending AI with their creative methods. No, AI is not taking over you job.

Truly interested in improving migration management?
Ignore the noise about Rwanda and look into visas: who gets the good ones, who gets the bad ones, who doesn't get any.
Great thread by Marta Foresti : we must indeed talk about visas.
