This affects way too many people I love just to let it lie. Ill thought out dog-whistles are his speciality, but this will break Britain.
Imagine spending years proving you belong here, paying thousands, following every rule - only for Nigel Farage to threaten to tear up your status.
This is not policy - it’s cruelty, it’s showmanship, and I for one, am sick to the damned back teeth of it.

Nigel Farage Wants to Tear Up Indefinite Leave to Remain - and Deport Legal Migrants in Britain

For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR.

The Last Hospitals in Gaza
In the ruins of a health-care system, many medical facilities have become graveyards. Doctors continue to deliver lifesaving care—but they risk their own lives in the process.

A gobsmacking story. Water companies let toxic waste disposers, for cash, dump their loads into sewage farms. The sewage sludge is then spread, untested, on farmland, potentially poisoning vast areas, entire ecosystems and the people (you and me) eating the food.
