I was listening to Richard Radcliffe talk about his young daughter being returned to him from Iran, and he was saying

...that she didn’t really know him well and that there was a “language barrier”. It was just so matter of fact and heartbreaking.

"Her husband is a humanitarian coordinator for the United Nations in Yemen, designated a “non-family station” because of the conflict there, so their son is being forced to live apart from both parents, with his aunt in Egypt... Despite Hassan’s husband being unable to have his family with him in Yemen, the Home Office said there was no evidence of exceptional circumstances."

"Asani grew up in Nigeria. Although she has a Congolese passport, she has never been to the DRC, which has one of the worst human rights records in the world. She does not speak the main language and knows no one there."

it's almost like the windrush disaster had no impact on the government's gleeful embrace of the hostile environment policy

Literally nothing changed as a consequence of windrush, the FO's hostile environment policy only hitting the headlines because it hit a demographic to which people/media are largely sympathetic. Amber Rudd went through the revolving door and rapdily back in again, the name was changed to 'compliant environment' and *nothing else changed* apart from the media were largely appeased and it went away as a problem.

Dear @joswinson please find below my letter emailed to you yesterday. I hope you will take seriously the racist trope, trolling and gaslighting by a @LibDems member.

Lots of people do surely, even if it's preaching to the converted. Seems like their "research" and the resulting rhetoric has been a cornerstone for the right for years.

Think they were the main reason May's government started giving a specific target of reducing net migration to tens of thousands. I do enjoy the lack of self-awareness in their logo though - a magnifying glass over Britain making something seem a lot bigger than it really is.

I’ve located the piece in question & stand willing to take the fps as they come http://eroticreviewmagazine.com/articles/horny-tony/
“On that night of the 12th May, 1994, I needed that love Cherie gave me, selfishly,” he wrote. “I devoured it to give me strength. I was an animal following my instinct, knowing I would need every ounce of emotional power to cope with what lay ahead. I was exhilarated, afraid and determined in roughly equal quantities.”The first thought is, of course, disgust. Blair devouring, Blair as an animal. Then there is hilarity. Then, rather suddenly, the mind recoils in horror. It’s the imagery, you see. No matter, how developed the intellect, it’s simply impossible to get past the imagery.
