An illegal immigrant as someone living in the country without residency permit and who has not declared themselves to the authorities. If found they are removed by any gov't. Jenrick is politicking because his target audience's definition of illegal immigrant is not that defined by statute.

You donā€™t like gay marriage? Donā€™t get gay married. You donā€™t like gender-affirming care? Donā€™t have any. You donā€™t believe in abortion? Donā€™t get one. Your opinion/religion guides you, not all of us. Itā€™s as simple as that.

Like Brexit, a policy of leaving the ECHR would split the Tory party Like Brexit, there is no consensus on what would replace it, beyond nebulous references to the common law or Raabā€™s fatuous Bill of Rights It would breach the Good Friday Agreement It could only weaken the protection of rights

One element we're privileged to have at Verify is access to proprietary satellite images. Often they help us to compare images from the ground with the latest we can see from the sky. In this case, with Hurricane Milton damage, they speak for themselves: www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cg...

Rapid analysis from our team re: an error w/in an election system in AZ that was exploited to levy false claims of mass voting by non-citizens. This rumor uses a common tactic of seizing upon a real issue, but warping its meaning to fit a "rigged elction" frame. uwcip.substack.com/p/error-in-a...

ā€œPeople say: ā€˜Pick a side. Are you on the side of Israel or Palestine?ā€™ "Iā€™m on the side of a two-state solution and international law. If you are against that, then you are on the side of continued violence. "Those are the sides. Peace or not. Itā€™s actually quite simple.ā€ @laylamoran.bsky.social

Any limitation or lack of capacity in UNIFIL's operations is a direct result of the long-running tendency for veto-holders to limit the freedom of manoeuvre for UN forces. Another point to take onboard is who staffs these missions. 6/

One of the most tiresome takes on the current Middle East crisis is that "the UN" has failed. I hear this from people who seem to know a fair bit about international affairs and should certainly know better. shortšŸ§µ 1/
