    Well, weather is famously an "act of god", so these droughts and famines must be some kind of message. Maybe god's a massive racist?

    The Lozza branding reads like he's a alternate universe Lizzo which is surpisingly accurate.

    Another high ranking politician is Vietnam has "resigned" / found to be corrupt. We've now lost the NA Chairman, Deputy Prime Minister, the President, economic commission chief and another President in the current term alone.

    Down to bare bones now.

    The ouster this week of Vietnam’s National Assembly chairman Vuong Dinh Hue, the latest in a series of high-level officials to be removed in a wide-ranging anti-corruption campaign, sets the stage for more infighting at the top of the communist nation.

    The Politburo of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) voted to remove Hue in an emergency session on April 25; and the Central Committee voted to accept his resignation the following day.

    Hue is the fifth Politburo member to be ousted this term, falling to the “Blazing Furnace” anti-corruption campaign that has already claimed Deputy Prime Minister Pham Binh Minh, President Nguyen Xuan Phuc, economic commission chief Tran Tuan Anh, and President Vo Van Thuong.

    This is all for a 'look we tried' ruse, but they know well the courts here won't let anyone be sent back to the UK. It was only out on the unsafe countries list by the very same courts a few months ago.
    In reality, that shower of bastards in government here would have the whole lot of them here in a heartbeat, and more on top. They're making a fortune from it.

    Have we become France?

    We should secure a deal where they give us a billion a year to secure the border then stand absolutely mystified as it continues regardless. That's how this works, right?

    Paul Harris had to stop working when his anxiety got so bad he would lock himself in the toilets at work.
    Do articles like this deliberately go for the least obvious disabilities? Show me someone in a wheelchair or on crutches instead of some property developer from Bedfordshire.

    He has not been able to work since then and says PIP is the "last stronghold" of benefits that can support him. He does receive employment and support allowance, but cannot claim job seekers' allowance because he says his mental health is a barrier to applying for jobs, despite previously seeking support from the Jobcentre.
    Mate, just bullshit a job search diary and get an extra Ł50 or whatever.

    They are also considering whether people with long-term conditions and disabilities would need to be assessed at all.
    I guess I better start looking for work because that's one hell of a way to save time and costs.

    The government get alot wrong, but the number of chancers signed off work with men'al 'elf is obscene.

    The problem is identifying the piss takers and the genuine cases. In my line of work, I know many that fall into both camps, but I'm not sure having me decide who is and isn't taking the piss is a workable solution.

    It would also be nice to have a functioning NHS to help those not taking the piss, but we're not hearing much about that side of things.

    Also, why is matey boy on ESA/JSA rather than UC? He's not a pensioner.

    Get him moved over ASAP Plz.

    We try to filter our cases by asking the claimants to provide medical evidence. In theory, that makes the decision at the end more robust. Unfortunately, the great British public are either excellent or horrendous at filing forms in and providing paperwork. And then you get the people that withdraw their claims because 'they don't want the hassle'. Only for them to come back a month or two later because they've changed their mind again.

    Hell, I was one of those people when it took me six months of unemployment before my parents talked me into actually getting on JSA.

    This does seem to be the case. I have no belief that this is what the Tories intended though so I wouldn't give them too much credit. I see the Irish are now wanting to look into returning the asylum seekers as they have entered via a safe third country which could actually open up discussions on what happens with these people within the EU(although I would imagine unlikely).

    Surely if you want open borders to work within the EU the only way to do so is to basically get every country to take their share of the people who are entering illegally give them all the same level of rights across every country and call it that.

    In some ways I hope this Rwanda plan does work because then people will see that the number of people coming to the country isn't caused by illegal migration but is actually caused by legal migration which we could turn the taps on and off for as we pleased should we so wish to do so.

    International attention on it. I didn't read the article but I hope they mentioned that they were all shipped off to a field in the middle of nowhere and had all their tents and belongings dumped for St. Patricks weekend.

    I would imagine a majority probably don't arrive from the EU but I have no idea, it all just seems a bit here's the headline, here's the reality and ne'er the twain shall meet on all sides.

    I was going to Screwfix earlier (earning 0.85 working class coefficient points in the process) and down the side of the alleyway next to them on the industrial estate, I saw about 10 deliveroo and other such people loitering outside the grimy opening of what I presume must have been a 'dark kitchen'. We need 10 of those guys in the country earning Ł2 an hour each so that some cunt living in his mother's bedroom can have a Ł20 burger and chips.

    That's why no one in the elite wants immigration stopped. That and general idiocy.

    Most just arrive on planes and overstay their visa. How do you sort them from the SMALL BOATS, though? It's not like they're going to offer up any information.

    I did wonder how that might ever be determined, and assumed, as you say, that the position will be yes, we'd love to have them back, now just show me where it was they arrived from . . .

    Always a nice feeling when the rozzers justifiably take down a wrong un' who has decided it's time to bring others into the mix, less so when they put five in the noggin of an innocent electrician.

    The mother-of-two said: "I gave them my letter and their first words were, 'ooh you're dead'.

    "I said, 'pardon?'. I was in shock.

    "Then they put something on the computer so I could have the scan and then they just said, 'bye' and that's it."

    Mrs Johnson said the experience left her "shaking like a leaf".
    However, when she contacted the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) the bemused call handler told her: "On the computer you're dead".

    "I said, 'I'm not, I'm still talking to you'.

    "I shut down completely. I didn't talk or anything, I was in my own little bubble," she recalled.
    Mrs Johnson, who is now concentrating on her hobbies of gardening and knitting, wants to move on with her life - but still wants answers.

    Can @Jimmy Floyd explain the Monty Panesar George Galloway thing to me. His platform seems to be 'I don't like ULEZ' and has no opinions on Gaza so I'm not sure what enticed him to it.

    Is he a bit of a weirdo?

    I was going to post about this earlier. He has definitely had mental health issues in the past and didn’t he piss up a copper a few years ago as well?

    Pissed on a bouncer I believe.

    Also definitely seems like he's not all there whenever I see him on TV and clearly either has people doing his business for him who don't give a shit about his wellbeing or he's doing it himself.

    He isn't right in the head and has some extremely bad people around him, and has had for some time.

    For some time now it's been literally anything for media exposure and this is just the latest.
