What is the right-wing vision for a world where immigrants have been deported and public services cut? Care and other services would dry up. The return of living in squalor for those beyond working age? The workhouse? The pauper’s grave?

In 1909, Peterborough's workhouse was extensively investigated for a scandal. What kind of scandal? No idea yet, only found out about it last night...
So, in about an hour, I'm going to read the newspaper reports and TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT, like it's twitter in 2020.

Today in history, 1917: Imprisoned suffragists are subjected to brutal beatings, torture and abuse by guards at the Occoquan Workhouse in Virginia. The event galvanized public support for the women’s suffrage movement and led to the women’s release two weeks later. /1
