| 1627251637759737857 | Very important contribution to the asylum and small boats debate from @sundersays and @britishfuture. As they highlight squeezing one end of the tube wonβt work, instead stopping small boats needs comprehensive reform that balances control and compassion. https://t.co/dppVFPudnk | 12 |
| 1624496522493566981 | @sundersays Iβm happy the meeting happened as it seems like a sane and productive thing for all the participants to be involved in. Yet it is built on a premise, conscious or otherwise: How do we reverse some of the damage that Brexit has caused? | 12 |
| 1623671022279966720 | Personally I would be happy to invite @miqdaad & @sundersays to discuss Prevent and the Shawcross Review at KCL. Presumably Braverman will take "meaningful steps" to ensure they are "no platformed". https://t.co/pCcSgz3qh6 | 7 |
| 1627256869512179712 | The government βis proposing a catch-22 system to try to abolish asylum in the UK: nobody can claim asylum if they come here illegally, but there is no legal route for almost anybody who is not Ukrainian.β This is not a solution, @sundersays says: https://t.co/wSgAsGcNpi | 6 |
| 1624196575902720001 | @Steve58631410 @sundersays Iβll just leave this here- maybe you could educate yourself a bit, or is that too big an ask when youβre a racist, Tory prick? #RefugeesWelcome https://t.co/oNfPjoSqON | 6 |

| 1627000127146655744 | "Most of the public want something done to reduce Channel crossings.

| 1624443968086745088 | Genuine question. Has a single Tory MP condemned last night's far right violence? @sundersays | 4 |
| 1624500055762763789 | @sundersays I take your point on that. My only real point was that itβs logically difficult to have a conference whose aim is to discuss ways to ameliorate a set of problems without talking about the cause of said problems as undesirable (but it sounds like they half pulled this off). | 3 |
| 1624497910934036482 | @sundersays Again, glad discussions like these are being had but what they are essentially aiming to do is repair relationships which were damaged by the Brexit process (which is entirely necessary, obviously). I donβt see whatβs hyperbolic in pointing any of this out. | 3 |

| 1624685409010679808 | @sundersays @Frances_Coppola The man is earnestly posting about spending Twitter's skeletal resources on massaging his bruised ego, by fixing a "problem" that no one else has experienced, while literally everything else on the site is on fire. Some people used to think this guy was a business genius. π | 16 |
