They're hiding on that one since the new video dropped yesterday.
I saw that, if it's real then the guy was known for riling ICE agents, he still shouldn't have been shot like that but he was living dangerously.

We have to build new relationships

Ah so human rights actually are irrelevant- let’s just get the deal done.

You’ve changed your moral stance!

In a sense it almost makes it worst
Imagine for a moment that our police shot people dead at one of the far right protests in this country and then told barefaced lies and tried digging dirt on the victim to make it seem justified.

I’d be outraged and want justice. It seems when the shoe is on the other foot, the empathy isn’t reciprocated.

Saw this on my YouTube feed. I suggests it's not what you do it's the way you do it.
I read an article that claimed, and I haven't had chance to check, that deportation numbers are massively down under Trump.

What has increased is the number of people being held, seemingly indefinitely, in privately run detention centres with no due process being undertaken. Wonder who profits from those?

Biden too. Trumps first term saw a remarkable dip in deportations from Obama and then rose astronomically again under Biden. I don’t think he’s on trend to pass either based on the first 12 months of his second term. Like you point out, detainees is a different point but if you’re not deporting them…

Next he should have his undeserved peerage removed.

There's a lot to choose from but Starmer bringing him back must rank as one of his worst decisions.
It kind has set the template for how he’s governed. Got a feeling that the worst is still to come out and ultimately it will bring Starmer down, especially if he starts doing a Boris and starts lying about what he did and didn’t know in parliament.

Mandleson may not have been an elite back in the day but he used his power seemingly turning a blind eye to the monsters he was spending time with

Seeing a lot of our Rachel on the news this morning, something about an announcement in the budget to do with petrol sales, going digital by the sounds of it, so another initiative to wangle more out of us dressed up as a saving of maybe £40 for the average motorist, blimey good going that, websites, facilities, real competition, sound's like a loser to me for the human race, centralised control, just in time to introduce dynamic pricing.
More big provision less competition.
I truly despair, this is the labour party, don't make me laugh.

I can't find this anywhere, not sure what you mean by going digital?

I already pay for my petrol with an app and petrol has been dynamically priced for as long as I can remember so what are they actually changing?

Is it about pay per mile.

I think it's to do with putting the price on an app so customers can see a live view of who's cheapest in their area, they have to display the price within half an hour of any change.
