Farage asked what you do about asylum seekers from unsafe countries. He says ā€œI’m sorry I’ve had enough of this. If you come from Afghanistan you go back to Afghanistan. I’m done.ā€. šŸ’„.

I feel its been under-covered today that the new Reform PCC writes books about aliens and bigfoot. Good marketing brain though, to launch the hardcover tomorrow.

No comment on the quality of the policy, but there's a wedge that can be driven here between Reform's 'something must be done' voter base and it's leader's libertarian instincts.

Sky's @MhariAurora says Nigel Farage is 'absolutely against' digital IDs as a way to disincentivise illegal work. The Reform UK leader said at a press conference that the biggest impact would be on 'law-abiding citizens'. šŸ“ŗ Sky 501 and YT

It is hard to believe flying £2 garments from China makes business sense unless they have a surplus of production. If so, UK consumers are essentially on welfare from the Chinese state. Might not be the worst thing in the short term. Long term this level of dependence is toxic.

Moreover, the air freight sector is booming. It's creating hundreds of jobs. Regional airports like Bournemouth, Prestwick etc are dependent on it. Remove the loophole and they all suffer. So this is not simple. Does govt prioritise domestic production or cheap consumption?

Two fast thoughts: . 1. Conservatives are getting really good at doing video content, I suspect via the age old trick of spending money on it. 2. Conservatives have learnt nothing from Lab 2010-19 about the dangers of slamming your own record in Government.

Most migrants can get Indefinite Leave to Remain after 5 years. It means they can stay here forever. And claim welfare, social housing and free healthcare. Millions of recent migrants didn’t come to work. Giving them ILR will cost us hundreds of billions. We mustn’t do it.

If you replaced most right media commentators on Trump with this guy it would be an improvement because at least he believes what he's saying. No Sophistry, not spinning for speaking opportunities, just genuinely disconnected from reality.

No comment on the 'Your Party' businesses other than to ask if its really fair for high profile people to use that profile to raise money for something that:. A. Doesn't exist? .B. Could plausibly not involve them?

The ever insightful @fhpitts has a great new analysis out today (. A big part of defining what anything is, is being clear about what it is not. FWIW I dont think the geopolitical enemy works because all major parties agree. Its not a difference maker.
