Hi @SuellaBraverman , 48 hours ago I asked you to substantiate or withdraw your claim that “250,000 foreign students took £4bn in UK loans.” That time has now passed. You have provided no evidence, no clarification, and no correction. I have taken the time to examine the data myself. I have reviewed materials from the Student Loans Company, the Department for Education, the House of Commons Library, the UK Statistics Authority, and reporting from Times Higher Education. Across these sources, one thing is clear. Your statement is presented in a way that gives the public a deeply misleading impression. Let’s deal with this carefully. The £4bn figure you reference relates to the total value of student loans issued to non UK nationals. It is not a direct cost to the taxpayer. These are loans. They are repaid over time based on income. Presenting that figure as if it were money handed out or lost is not an accurate reflection of how the system works. Then there is your use of the phrase “foreign students.” This is where the distortion becomes more serious. The fact (which you know quite well) is those eligible for UK student finance are not newly arrived international students. They are people with settled status, indefinite leave to remain, refugee status, or long term lawful residence in the UK. They live here. They work here. They pay into the system. And under the law, they are entitled to access student finance. Standard international students on student visas are generally not eligible for these loans. By leaving out that distinction, you create a very different picture in the minds of the public. One where large numbers of people are arriving from abroad and immediately accessing public funds. That is not what the data shows. You also cited a figure of 250,000 without pointing to a clearly published dataset or transparent methodology. Numbers like this carry weight. They should be used with care, not as loose estimates in politically charged statements. I am not interested in party politics. But I am concerned about what this kind of messaging is doing to the country. When lending is presented as spending, and long term residents are presented as outsiders, it fuels resentment. It deepens division. It creates tension where clarity is needed. And ordinary people end up carrying the consequences of that confusion. Like I was being racially attacked and profiled in my initial response to you in X by supporters of your party who were obviously misled and triggered by your misinformation. I did consider legal action. But the reality is that the law is not designed to deal easily with this kind of broad public misrepresentation. You know that, which is why ignoring a challenge like mine carries little immediate consequence. That does not make it acceptable. I will be submitting a formal complaint to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards regarding your use of misleading statistical claims in public communication. The public deserves accuracy. Not selective framing. Not distortion. And certainly not narratives that risk turning people against each other on the basis of incomplete facts. Stephen Dada.

Too many universities are selling immigration, not education. Last year, about 250,000 foreign students took up taxpayer-funded student loans to pay for their courses in the UK, worth £4bn. This is not fair. A @reformparty_uk government will make sure that the British taxpayer is not paying for foreign students. Let’s put British students first.

Are you ppl alright? The best man for the job is not the current man doing the best job?

"Just because Michael Carrick has done a great job at United doesn't make him the best man for the job... The best man for the job is the young manager who's already announced he's leaving Bournemouth in the summer [Andoni Iraola]" @craigburley and the @ESPNFC crew share their thoughts about the next Manchester United manager. Who do you think should be on the touchline next season?

If it was all strategy to get the moles caught in the net, then ok. Just make sure that the next step is decisive.

Who wrote this Gladiator 2 movie? It would have been better as a series. It's not great as a movie.
