Just one example of the national self-harm resulting from a fixation on reducing (legal) immigration & which will cause so much misery to families. I'm concerned that care homes will lose valuable staff or staff will work on but in a state of distress at family separation.

Dr Dan Goyal They will need to increase our pay dramatically, otherwise this will really impact the NHS.
They aren't paying for NHS workers to train, and now they are doing something which will severely impact the NHS.
Anyone would think they don't support the NHS?!

Braverman & Johnson proposing £40k min earning for immigrants is beyond stupid…

If it were not for immigrants - many earning well below £40k - last year the NHS would have had its first ever reduction in staff numbers.

Maybe time to stop listening to utterly failed Ministers!

I teach a module, ‘Writing & Place’, which concentrates on British & Irish texts published in the last 10 years. In 2024, I’d like to introduce a film or two. What should our students watch? It’s an open question, I know, but suggestions - in any genres - would be appreciated!

Well, this is already looking like a massive PR disaster for ITV

And for the viewing numbers.

And for the advertisers.

I still can't get over the fact that Western govts have supported and funded 42 days of bombarding, killing starving, denying clean water, fuel, medicines (including pain killers and life-saving antibiotics) to 2.3 million trapped civilians (including 1 million children)....
