> Her remarks have triggered alarm among Tory MPs. “If we are using phrases like that we need to explain what they mean,” one said. “Culturally coherent: it’s either dog-whistle or it’s so vague it’s meaningless.”
> “‘Go home’ is a chant used by people who are bigoted or racist – so we have to be very careful when using phrases like go home, when talking in particular about legal migration. Politicians, especially ones who aspire to be in leadership frontline roles, should use language that is appropriate.”
It’s a shame that whoever said this doesn’t say it out loud and not behind anonymity, but they are probably in the minority of Conservative MPs
well done to them, if legally-settled people and British passport-holders’ status can be so easily dismissed in the way she is pushing for, then it kills the whole value of being British
if Conservatives want to defend Britishness, that requires them to defend the rights of British passport-holders and legal-residents
but clearly some individuals make it to Parliament without having two brain-cells to rub together
> The Conservatives have set out **plans to retrospectively strip the right of indefinite leave to remain (ILR) from people who claim benefits**, which could result in many being deported.
> However, this contradicts the party’s plans on ILR as set out in a draft bill from the shadow home secretary, Chris Philp. In a section titled “Revocation of indefinite leave to remain in certain circumstances”, it says **ILR should be removed if people** commit a crime, **claim any kind of benefits or earn less than £38,700 for six months or longer**.
> It remains unclear how the policy would work, including whether families might be split up, for example if someone with children and a spouse who has UK nationality might be stripped of their right to be in the country.
> While Tory officials say people would not lose their ILR for claiming the state pension, it is not known whether they could if they received maternity or shared parental pay.
What a wonderful dystopian future they are planning for us. That’ll be a sure winner in attracting skilled and talented workers into the country.
> There is also speculation about whether Badenoch was fully aware of her party’s proposals on ILR before the furore caused by Lam’s interview.
Party leader doesn’t know what the party’s policy proposals are?
Good job these clowns haven’t got a hope of governing the country for at least a decade.
