🚨Who benefits from asylum hotels? 💷 Follow the money! 🔵 In 2019 the Tories signed contracts with three private companies with v little competition 🏨 They put asylum seekers in hotels, allowed costs to spiral, and made HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS in profit.
Billions of pounds have been wasted because of a 'rushed and chaotic' approach to asylum hotels, according to a group of MPs. In a damning report, the Home Affairs Committee has warned the Government needs to 'get a grip' of the failed system. @SwainITV reports.

On the same day it’s been revealed that racist incidents against UK nurses have increased by 55%, #Peston is asking whether racist language is actually racist WTF is going on??
Is the Reform MP who says she’s driven mad by TV adverts full of Black and Asian people a racist or realist? How many migrants would the Tories expel? And should the UK be selling fighter jets to Türkiye? Join us LIVE at 9PM on X & YouTube or on ITV1 at 1045PM as @Peston put

@BBCNews #r4today #PoliticsLive I’m confused by the headlines that cover the cost of asylum hotels, could you make it clear that the contracts were signed under the Tory Govt. Deliberately misleading headlines.

- Labour has told hotel owners they must repay £46million in excess profits. - Labour has hugely increased the number of people processing asylum claims. - Labour has saved over £1billion by processing asylum seekers more rapidly.
TV News on MPs report on cost of asylum hotels. *None* giving the #facts: - *Tories* started use, set up contracts & stopped processing claims. - Tories filled *400 hotels* - Labour rapidly processing claims, reducing use (now <210) - Only 1/3 in hotels https://t.co/SsnaRDOJNa

The Tories' policy of an endless cycle of resits consigned young people to the scrapheap. White working class pupils are twice as likely to need to resit. Labour is putting better support in place to give them the vital English & maths skills they need. https://t.co/T5FHF0w9zi

DfE’s ‘core skills diploma’ could spell an end to mandatory resits for students with ‘lower attainment’

A reminder that not only did the Tories Jenrick set up and expand the asylum hotels, he was proud of it at the time. And he locked contracts in until 2029. And now, of course, he’s attacking the asylum hotels system.

Calvin is one of the most decorated men to serve in Parliament Wing Commander Bailey. Led the last evacuation flights from Afghanistan as an RAF pilot He’s now serving our country as an MP Just look at the replies. There’s a deep rot that’s set. And it’s been enabled by Reform
“I am Black British. That is who I am, and I want you to know both of those things.” I am proud of my British Zambian heritage and to call London my home. Our identities connect us to our shared history & values: freedom, democracy & the rule of law. #BlackHistoryMonth debate

Good to see @DailyMail @thetimes and @Telegraph all delete their articles - sad the lies went up in the first place
Totally untrue garbage from @thetimes & @DailyMail today - smear dressed up as journalism. Some facts: - There is no “£900 desk” - my constituency office has Ikea desks/chairs - we significantly underspent the new MPs allowance to set up an office https://t.co/NuTwLinxHJ
