2mins of Hashi Mohamed absolutely smashing the Conservatives Rwanda policy to bits.ππΌππΌππΌ
βOur learned judges said the Home Office hadnβt even assessed that policy before adopting it
Itβs unviable, itβs expensive & the only people itβs going to work for is the Rwandansβ #BBCQT

France has its first LGBTQ+ Prime Minister ππ³οΈβπ
Congratulations @GabrielAttal for your nomination as Prime Minister of France.
Mr Attal will be the first openly gay Prime Minister in the history of France.
I hope France becomes a leader in standing up for equality, diversity and inclusion in Europe.
For France & Europe

The U.K spent Β£158b on the health part of Covid - PPE, tests, Test & trace, etcβ¦
France spent Β£30b
Germany Β£60b
We had more deaths and our health system is still in a far worse state
This was the biggest heist in U.K. historyβ¦
The perpetrators must be caught and prosecuted

More Israeli misinformation. There are actually three churches in Gaza, one dating back to the early Byzantine period, and over a thousand Christians.

Israel are saying turn Gaza into Auschwitz!
All the idiots defending genocide just imploded!

I recommend reading her Wikipedia entry once youβve enjoyed this cute photo. An absolute bin fire of fascism, far right conspiracy theory, homophobia and other assorted bigotry. Sunak looks way too comfortable.

NEW - THE VIP FILES
Part One πποΈπ
I'm working with @goodlawproject on never before seen data about the VIP PPE Lane.
#TheVIPFiles today...
πΉ Β£3.8 billion contracts for Tory associates and donors for just PPE through the VIP Lane and the govt went further
πΉIt turns out the Government massively overpaid on stock through the VIP Lane too....by at least Β£925 MILLION.
πΉOn average the cost per item of PPE through the VIP LANE was 80% MORE than through the USUAL NHS supplier channels.
πΉSometimes it was much higher.
πΉFor instance, the price of a protective gown through standard suppliers at that time was Β£5.87.
πΉThrough the VIP Lane, Meller Designs Ltd was paid more than twice the price at Β£12.64 per gown.
πΉThe company made unprecedented profit that year.
πΉDavid Meller (of Meller Designs) an associate of Michael Gove, has donated almost Β£70,000 to the Conservative party since 2009.
πΉMore than a quarter of the VIP Lane stock WAS UNUSABLE.
πΉAnother company based offshore in a tax haven received an enormous contract and yet Β£145 million of their stock was useless. The referral for that company to the VIP LANE came from a Tory adviser to Liz Truss.
πΉAll these contracts were given preferential treatment even tho most had no previous experience in PPE.
πΉA company was 10 times more likely to get OUR money through the VIP Lane than through being a usual NHS PPE supplier.
@RachelReevesMP has committed to appointing a Covid Corruption Commissioner if Labour wins the next election.
We'll be passing our discoveries to her.

The EU just finished ratifying their trade deal with NZ, and it's MUCH better than ours.
If we were still members we'd now be benefitting from it too.
Instead, we're stuck with our hasty inferior one that harms British farming interests.

it is objectively quite funny that the biggest surge in immigration in British history came *after* Brexit
