| 1641050075479547910 | As MPs debate the government's housing plan for asylum seekers, the SNP's Alison Thewliss raises a Bloomberg report that reveals the Home Office rejected proposals to put migrants on ships in 2022 Read @alexwickham's story in full: https://t.co/ijk206XjdI https://t.co/NXoC5KrS05 | 32 |
| 1641034805415497730 | @alexwickham However if there are any Tory VIP lanes for their friends and donors to cash in on such a scheme I'm sure it will be introduced post haste and without due diligence just as in the PPE scandal. | 5 |
| 1641044292515819520 | .@alexwickham So why do it? Performative cruelty. @Conservatives spare no expense, to appeal to bigots on whose support they depend. #ToriesDestroyingOurCountry #ToriesDevoidOfShame #StoptheBill #humanrights ##RefugeesWelcome https://t.co/dN55ZI5UE6 | 3 |
| 1641031289242370048 | @alexwickham Itโs really time for a #GeneralElection they are totally out of ideas next will be A.I robots patrolling the coast | 3 |
| 1640285297245143044 | @alexwickham This is wonderful farce of it... It's all well and good he seems like a guy who shows up to work on time and not drunk or thick unlike his predecessors... But they have been in charge as a team for a decade and a half and everything is pretty rubbish | 3 |
| 1640292131481722880 | @alexwickham @johnmcternan It goes well beyond police resourcing/willingness to investigate. If you defund the courts system and get the kind of backlog in the justice system Britain has today, you have called open season to persistent criminals - Government has granted them systemic impunity | 3 |
| 1641051695428804611 | @alexwickham @sturdyAlex The whole point of all this is to keep the culture wars/immigration pot boiling, leading up to the GE, rather than process asylum seekers quicker. The Tories know it's their only hope of diverting attention away from their atrocious record & riling up the RW gammon | 3 |
| 1641045499808555008 | @alexwickham @BenKentish The Tories are panicking now, almost manic in throwing out the stories that can be so easily exposed. Good stuff. | 3 |
| 1640287964717563904 | @alexwickham @francessmith I work in retail, shoplifting is the worst its ever been. Not only are there more shoplifters but they're more brazen & more aggressive. One threatened to stab my manager & I with a needle the other day. Nothing is ever done to anyone I catch, they're back shoplifting in days. | 2 |
| 1640320838686715904 | @alexwickham It's a really odd take. " We are going to crack down on laughing gas because it usually leads to more serious crime.....which we don't crack down on" | 2 |

| 1641030452252225537 | @wembleypilgrim @alexwickham Don't be daft. If they processed them then how would they generate headlines on how tough they are and how they are dealing with the "crisis". Actually dealing with the "crisis" is not an option. The crisis is an end in and of itself. The question is how do we keep it going? | 22 |

| 1641043558600695813 | @alexwickham Surely it's more cost effective to handle their applications sooner or let refugees work while they wait for the asylum decision. | 18 |
