nothing is funnier than the officials at Heathrow giving attitude to people from Asia" how do I know you'll leave when your visa expires" because nobody wants to stay on your gutted island with broken universities, booming unemployment, no housing, shite weather, and food that kills zombies

I think an appropriate response to that would be, "I'm sorry, I thought you lived here and knew why nobody would want to stay. It would be impolite of me to give you the full list, and in any event I won't have time as my flight leaves in three days."

Hopefully today is the day we finally get a Home Secretary who'll refuse the mandatory insertion of Satan's forebrain into their skull their predecessors underwent and actually do something about our fucking racist border policing, but unfortunately I'm not very hopeful.

The "simultaneously make everything nice about the UK measurably worse while being horrible to anyone visiting" move has been the primary plan for cutting immigration for at least the last 6 years . I'm frankly astounded it hasn't worked in more concrete terms

Republicans have been transparent about their aim. They know that they lose when people can vote easily. Disenfranchisement is a feature not a bug of socalled election integrity.

My ex was asked the same thing bc obvs her holiday was a pretext to abuse the NHS. she got so pissed that she ranted about how much better the Rocky Mountains are than the Cotswolds and there’s no decent skiing anywhere on that island. Tbh I’m surprised they didn’t reject her out of spite
