'Immigration has actually fallen by around a third since the Labour party won the election last July. But that seems to be the best-kept secret in Britain'.
460,000 fewer visas were issued in 2024 than 2023. But with UK asylum claims rising by 25,000, the bigger overall fall has gone unnoticed'

There are, genuinely, a half dozen or more thinktanks which are govt aligned/very close (Fabians, IPPR, ThinkLabour, NEF, Resolution Foundation etc) to govt.
The issue is not that there isnt space for this sort of thinking. Its that McSweeney didnt like the answers on tax/immigation etc

Forget any philosophical issues around ID cards
Introducing them as an anti-immigation initiative when racist attacks are soaring and your largest political rivals are proposing internment camps and mass deportations of immigrants is utter madness.

shor is a very useful example of liberals finding ways to rationalize their own biased feelings and beliefs, especially vis a vis immigation. the excuses people give are as much to soothe the self as they are anything else.
it's not that you dislike immigrants, no no. it's just, the NUMBERS...

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

And of course those red states have plenty of extra gates and employees at their airports to accommodate all the new incoming flights, plus immigation personnel and facial recognition cameras, etc etc. Piece of cake.

This is an obvious and easy way for ICE to vet people and their immigation status primarily. I'm sure flight safety checks (what TSA actually does) is a secondary consideration at best. Wolf in wolf's clothing.

(WaPo: free) ICE now declaring that THEY, an immigation officer, can hold undocumented immigrants for the entire period that it takes to have a bond hearing...weeks, months, or years. This is a change - in the past, this decision was made by a Judge. Appeal coming?

Not just the immigation debate, frankly.
A big problem, possibly the actual biggest, in our “immigration debate” is the failure to platform alternative approaches other than from the hard right.
There are alternative ways to approach boats, asylum seekers, undocumented work, even overall numbers. But we only get one side over & over.
