@GBPolitcs@SkyNews 'British Nationals' - so it quite literally could be anyone born anywhere then. Being a British National doesn't slim it down at all.
🚨NEW: The Green Party has drafted proposals to reduce the maximum period police can detain terrorism suspects without charge from 14 days to 4 days

@KymriskaDraken@RupertLowe10 They can pay for lessons to learn it themselves or they can go and live somewhere else.
Why should we have to pay for them to learn a language in a country they're choosing to live in?
@SociallyTruth@RupertLowe10 And how do you expect them to do that if they are not being given any help?
Over here we have free Swedish classes for new-arrivals, and most people can speak English as a 2nd language.
Exactly that. Billionaires & corporations can afford to pay the best accountants & lawyers, whereas the rest of us have to pay the maximum possible tax. 'Ignorance is not a defence for breaking the law' is fear enough to stop regular people from trying to save money on a tax system they'll never be able to fully comprehend.
All of that said, I still think that if you are able to pay less while still remaining within the law - you should do so. Labour blames Tice for investing in his pension but they're the ones who are keeping that tax benefit in place. If they care so much, you'd think they'll remove it. But of course they won't remove it because their donors pay them to keep it there.
🚨 WATCH: Richard Tice responds to reports he avoided nearly £600,000 in tax
"There is a moral imperative now in the UK that we shouldn't just pay tax as required, but you're a naughty person unless you pay the maximum tax you could possibly pay"
@PolitlcsUK If Ed Davey put as much effort into supporting Britain as he does hating Donald Trump, we'd be a much better country.
His entire brand is just "Trump is bad, do the opposite of what Trump says" and that's very weak.
🚨 NEW: Ed Davey says Keir Starmer must ignore Donald Trump and rule out deploying British warships to the Strait of Hormuz
"Last week Trump said he didn't need Britain's help because he'd already won this war. So we mustn't let him push the UK around now"
🚨 NEW: MPs have voted to progress the jury trial reforms
Yes: 304
No: 203
Labour MP Karl Turner is said to be confident that the reforms in the Bill will be scrapped at committee stage
Dear @bbcnews... Are you gaslighting us?
You have literally quoted Iran's Foreign Minister as saying Iran's missiles are "intentionally limited" to just 124 miles (200km)...
Israel is being hit by ballistic missiles fired from over 2000km away..
How does that work?
@PolitlcsUK@NatashaC Absolutely useless if they can just hop back on the next dinghy to the UK.
First you need to stop the boats, then you can pay them as much as you want to get them out. Paying them to leave when they can just come straight back in is arguably worse than doing nothing.
@PolitlcsUK We're still in the ECHR so nothing will change. This isn't really progress... At least we knew where the invaders where before, now they'll be out on the street roaming the UK.
We don't want them in our hotels, we don't want them in our streets, we don't want them here at all!
🚨 NEW: The legal statutory duty to support asylum seekers will be revoked tomorrow
It means payments and accommodation will no longer be automatic - only those who can show genuine need will receive support
