I don’t have a problem with migrants being housed near me. In truth, I would sooner live near them than near the people whipping up this ugly campaign against them. My experience, after meeting many immigrants and refugees over the years, is that they are decent, hard-working people who want safety, stability and the chance to build a life. The right’s fixation with presenting foreigners as a threat is a disgraceful joke, engineered to divide communities and redirect anger away from the politicians who have failed them. No issue has been weaponised more cynically by Nigel Farage and his acolytes than immigration. He used it in 2016 to frighten people about European migration, and he is using it again now against people seeking asylum. The method is familiar enough: take an instinctive human fear of the unfamiliar, inflame it, then harvest the resentment. This latest stunt, a vindictive act of intimidation which may well be unlawful, belongs to that same nasty tradition of dehumanising politics. The difference now is the tone. It has become more openly cruel, more performative, more imported from the worst habits of American right-wing politics, where humiliation itself becomes the point. They are getting nastier and dirtier, and they should be called what they are: a disgrace. A movement prepared to treat vulnerable people as props in a political game is nowhere near fit to govern.

@enjoyer_liberty Plagiarist

the most racist white guy you know would still save a black guy from a burning building but the least racist woman you know would laugh at your death and celebrate your funeral if you disagreed with her politics

@WestminsterWAG @GWRHelp Two likes, 55 comments. Is the world telling you something ?

@GWRHelp I had a reservation for later but had to go back early

Standing room only on @GWRHelp to London from Par in Cornwall. £80 for a one way ticket, and they can’t even supply a seat.

@BradfemlyWalsh Rollies, cigars, proper cigarettes like Gauloise, Gitane, Camel, great smell. All the rest - revolting.

Except, if you're my age, it's somehow also the most erotic

@Jacob97106277 @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Oh Jacob petal, muting now, because you're a waste of time. Doing well in life are you ?

@simon_cocteau @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk

@wealthyanon @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Ahh mate, just look up the law around taking photos of people in public spaces. You can do that right ?

@simon_cocteau @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Bro thinks he won the argument 😂

@SimpGanassi Great thing about SW England is that it hasn't been flooded with illegals.

I’d love to holiday in Cornwall (never been) BUT it takes six hours to drive there, hotels are at least £100 a night, food is very expensive and the weather is British. Alternatively I can fly to Athens, get a good hotel for half the price, eat out cheaply AND have nice weather

@Jacob97106277 @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Her first thought ? You know more about this lady than I do

@simon_cocteau @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Clearly she doesnt care that much about what that girls doing if her first thought is to put on twitter rather than trying to fix the problem

@wealthyanon @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk LOL. Gormless fool.🤡🤡🤡

What are you on? Only authorities are permitted to photograph people without consent in certain cases, and they’re required to handle those images responsibly. A Karen secretly taking photos of a young girl in public and sharing them on the internet is unacceptable and illegal. She deserves to be punished for violating someone’s privacy like this.

@Jacob97106277 @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Better bang for buck to shame her.

@simon_cocteau @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Why does she feel the need to take the pic in the first place? Could just have easily gone over and asked her to move her feet

@Jacob97106277 @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Why does she need consent to take a pic in a public space ?

@chilternrailway @hypnochickuk So you have a problem with passengers having their feet on the chairs but its absolutely fine for this prick to take photos of her without her consent and then share it on social media?

@FfcLucan @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk Public space. What policy are you imagining there might be ?

@chilternrailway @hypnochickuk What’s your policy on passengers taking unsolicited photos of other passengers?

@wealthyanon @chilternrailway @hypnochickuk She doesn't need her consent. You're not very bright are you.

@chilternrailway @hypnochickuk The real problem here is this Karen posting a picture of a random girl she took on the train and sharing it all over the internet without her consent.

@JujuliaGrace Oh petal.

@sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 "Begging", "traumatising", "kidnapped", "ripped", "abducted". Do you realise what an emotionally unhinged lunatic you sound like ?

I am begging all apolitical Reform voters to understand that the change they will bring will be TRAUMATISING to witness Your neighbour kidnapped from your corner shop A dad down the road ripped out of the family home Teenagers abducted walking home from school

@reece_dinsdale Oh petal

Vile man Vile policies Vile people

@MHTruthUltra Yeah, Elon should stop trying to prevent them all from building rockets and things. Good insight.

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what was wrong with it. When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.

@yonewt Then you joined a cult

dreamt i bought a new pair of cargo shorts they were glorious, i was able to carry so much stuff

@ZoeJardiniere We feel like you've already gone insane. Many moons ago

I feel like I’m going insane. But for our Muslim communities I just don’t know how it would feel. To be shown so extremely clearly how much less your safety is of concern than others. ☹️☹️☹️

@RossPlayle Yeah, not performing for the cameras at all. Truly humbling, man of the people. Keep these excellent insights rolling in.

There is something really quite humbling about the UK political system from this. You wouldn’t catch many world leader doing the same.
