Asked if it's true that Rishi Sunak's Government brought forward the planned detention of asylum seekers for Rwanda, in order to coincide with the local elections, his spokesman tells me that they're "not aware of that". So no denial
🧵I think the shift in messaging from being seen to help/encourage people with depression off benefits and into work (popular) to been seen actively punishing people with depression risks backlash - and in particular from swing voters. Some work we did with @Rethink_ suggests why

I really regret going back to work repeatedly when I was too mentally ill to do so and then letting colleagues down, often in a very messy and last minute fashion. I was desperate to be well and back working effectively but funnily enough my recovery was not linear and I couldn’t…

A reminder that this is the same government that is currently promising to clamp down on what it describes as "immoral" waste in the civil service
This attitude, that healthcare workers have somehow sold their souls to the NHS, and that they should be bullied into staying regardless of what politicians do to their working conditions is really, really alarming 🚨

As of the 2021 census, Blackpool has a significantly smaller ethnic minority population than England as a whole, or even the broader NW. 90.4% were ‘white uk’. This is a demographic chart of Blackpool. Big blue bit is ‘white UK’. The tiny blue line 3 from the right is Roma.

Genuinely bizarre interview this morning on BBC 5Live 🤨 I was told the polls are ambiguous…?? And when I explained how detention & deportations impact vulnerable people the presenter insisted we have “no idea” if that will happen as part of the Rwanda plan? I’m confused.
@PickardJE As we reported last September, among the #Croydon FB group members is Chris “Congo” Philp, the police minister insidecroydon.com/2023/09/19/pol…
One point that came up in focus groups (conducted with 2019 Tory voters) alongside the polling was most weren't currently moved by the Rayner story & some were actively cross about criticism they felt unfair & would compare smaller amounts she may owe with e.g PPE spending.
So to summarise, the Home Office plans to detain vulnerable people for months on end, for the sake of trying to win a few more votes for the Conservative party theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…
Rishi Sunak getting very ratty with Trevor Phillips on Sky News when asked when he'll call a general election and why he's so badly tanked in all the polls
To be clear this would be a criminal offence, punishable with up to two years in prison.
This is a deeply misleading front page. Buried right at the bottom of the story is a statement from Royal Parks pointing out that it was they, not the police, who covered up the memorial and that they routinely do so during large events

Dear @YahooNews, as seemingly every day, according to Google news you have published or updated nine 'money' stories with my name in the headline over the last 24 hours even tho I've not said anything publically in that time and certainly never been interviewed or given a quote…
And I was only able to make any headway in recovery because I was able to get private therapy for the PTSD that was ruining my life. I find it astonishing that ministers seem to think the therapy will magically appear or people will just realise they’ve been imagining they are…
@RobDotHutton £900 and he had to bring his own milk. They saw him coming.
@ stock image photographers I’ve got an idea for you for this week

Bit of news 👇 Thrilled to say I’ll be presenting a new flagship Sunday morning politics show for @LBC 10-12 ‘Sunday with Lewis Goodall’ will have the best political interviews, top analysis on UK, US elections (& more) plus exclusive on-the-ground reporting. Starts this week!
This is how it feels when you drag out an interesting 3 episode miniseries into 5 seasons of 24 episodes.
Plotters set out ‘100 days’ policy plan to rival Sunak @spectator blog on the latest Tory machinations in a big week 👇 spectator.co.uk/article/plotte…
It's weird how accustomed to this sort of thing we are. Sunak's exasperation here comes from a flat presumption that other people have simply no right to know when there's going to be an election or a tax rise and it's inherently petty and annoying of them to want to find out.

Also great to see that the site continues to develop. These posters were designed by our excellent librarian, Mr Harris, and are in every classroom - and now on the corridors to reinforce our message and ethos.
It's like a Hogarth - "the public listen attentively to the prouncements of his majesty's minister" (via @EtanSmallman)
This quote from Ed Balls explains quite a lot about the state we're in as a country… Overtly saying politicians should avoid responsibility. The point of government is to run things! Passing power to unaccountable boardrooms or quangos damages democracy inews.co.uk/news/politics/…
A thought. And I can't believe I'm having it. Did we consider checking if MPs could find Rwanda on a map before allowing them to vote on the bill? Might have saved some bother.
