Braverman is incredibly toxic to voters, she's deeply unpopular.

This is all so stupid by Reform, on so many levels.

I think a lot of Reform voters would probably quite like to take us back to the 19th century. The good old days.

Braverman was a fairly obvious choice as she has a safe seat - even safer now.

It doesn’t really matter what people think of her unless it’s reform voters opinions

There's a thought - Nige leaves Reform stating it's lost its way, then sets up yet another party so he can continue sniping and grifting from the sidelines telling everyone they're doing it wrong and how he'd do it better.

Don't really know enough about the background or the plans to give much analysis but one year renewable permits sound like they want people to come and work which would tie with a couple of statements in that article
Spain's economic growth has by far outpaced most European peers in the past two years, at least in part boosted by an openness to immigration that has dynamised key sectors like hospitality and care, and bolstered the welfare state.

economists across the region have attributed Spain's falling unemployment and strong growth in part to its openness to migrants.

Unfortunately for Goodwin it’s very much a minority view in this country, despite the attempts of dribbling ethnic nationalists like Konstantin Klisin etc

What's going on in Scotland, specifically two Russians from I believe a ship in coastal waters that had had protection from a Scottish court but have subsequently been flown out of Prestwick airport?

It will ultimately lead to another two party set up that is just more polarised than it used to be, which is a bad thing in my view. The consequence of one major party able but unwilling to help on cost of living and the other willing but not able.

I was replying to a comment you made on UK politics so you changed the sub thread for no reason.

Yeah whatever, I don't worry about it.
