No, who are they?

Not female for a start.

Not female for a start.

Also not eponymous.

More grubbiness

The Home Office has sacked David Neal, the "independent" chief inspector of borders and immigration... for speaking to the media.

The 15 reports he has submitted to the Home Office in the last year remain unpublished.

That's why he spoke to the media, to expose his findings

https://x.com/matt_dathan/status/1759992648708853792?s=20

Findings were

He said that 'high risk' passengers are being allowed into the UK without security checks on private jets

He also told @matt_dathan that a quarter of foreign care workers are abusing UK visa rules by working illegally in other industries

(Steven Swinford)

Presumably working in other industries because they can’t survive on the utter pittance we pay care workers.

Welcome kit free

I love your very dry response about one having confidence. I agree I like the familiar (perhaps 🤔) writing style

Here's a new fiasco the press haven't picked up on yet. You're welcome, btw.

When you go to the Popular Conservatism website and click to join their mailing list, you can see the full names of the last 30 people who have joined. (GDPR?)

Just look in the HTML source code.

@DuncinToffee I'm absolutely crying with laughter.

Notonthestairs · 20/02/2024 21:24

You see the last 30 people who've joined? Or only 30 people have joined?

"NEW:

Kemi Badenoch told MPs trade talks with Canada were "ongoing".

Canada says otherwise:

"There have been neither negotiations nor technical discussions with respect to any of the outstanding issues."

x.com/petercampbell1/status/1760020745105879152?s=46&t=Uw4lJNwxFZFnX0Xs3doHYg

Maybe we don't need to involve them in negotiations - the Government can just pass a law that we've done a deal.

DuncinToffee · 20/02/2024 21:37

Surely Badenoch has evidence that Canada is lying, maybe an undated letter?

Notonthestairs · 20/02/2024 21:39

I think Canada has just misunderstood.

😂 She can say they're lying in Parliament. She can get away with that. After all she's on a roll getting all angry and outraged.

RafaistheKingofClay · 20/02/2024 21:59

Presumably my Canada have noted that there were no negotiations and emailed it to themselves and a few other people as evidence.

I’m imagining the ST have a copy of that email note that Staunton wrote and this is why they said they were standing by their story. Staunton appears to have kept all the receipts because he didn’t trust the government as far as he could throw them. Not surprising given how the post masters got stitched up.

It's GB News

Sunak did a show on there on 12th August answering questions from a selective audience

Which OFCOM are now investigating.

RafaistheKingofClay · 20/02/2024 22:15

And by investigating OFCOM mean looking to find a way to find that GB News didn’t break the rules. Even though they obviously did.

Just seen this. The labour comms team are on fire at the moment. They have a lot of material to work with but even so.
