The Tories have a weird love affair with Rwanda without understanding any of its current or regional context. It’s only exists to them as a colonial fantasy dumping ground for people they don’t want in our country.

The repetition of this lie is quite outrageous.

Over to Nigel. Let's see if he's brave enough to stand.
Big congrats Jovan.

Just hearing about this. Way to go Margate.
Incredible solidarity from the local community and its Labour Mayor Rob Yates.

Hence, we live in an elite chocolate box enclave known as The Cotswolds – while the rest of the country goes to hell.

If I were King, the horses that made it out east to Limehouse would be allowed to live free in Epping Forest for the rest of their lives.

Folkestone and Kent friends - I know how deaths in the Channel affect people all along this coastline.
Sunny Sands tonight 6.30pm.

Mr Speaker - I know the party opposite are desperate to talk about my living arrangements... but the public would rather talk about theirs... when is the government going to end No Fault Evictions?

Brilliant opener to #PMQs from Angela Rayner

Five *people* have died trying to cross the Channel.
Not dehumanised 'migrants'.
People. One of them a child.

Five feared dead in the Channel this morning, as the hangovers kick in from Tory Rwanda drinks night.
French media reporting youngest was 4 years old.
Imagine having a PM fighting to end this terrible situation rather than exploiting Channel crossings for populist gain.

Rwanda plan won’t work. It’ll be a failed piece of legislation by a failed government drenched in populist desperation.
But now frightened & vulnerable people will have to enact the performance because that’s how performative cruelty works.

We cordially invite you to a 'Deportation Drinks' champagne reception as grotesque as the Rwanda policy

Hearing Welsh musician Cheryl Beer on #WATO has blown my mind... she composes music 'in collaboration with the biorhythms of nature in crisis' using hearing aid technology to notate biorhythms from the West Wales rainforest.

May Mishal Husain never leave the Today programme. An interviewer's masterclass this morning.

They can’t get Rwanda done so they are coming for you. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

If Susan Hall wins, it would be a Donald Trump-like moment for our beautiful city.
