No Irish wouldn’t that violate the 1953 CTA agreement?

The Uk and the US speed running to be the worse any%.
I was really confused until i understood that this is a satire comedy story.
This is the guardian. They’re deadly serious.
🫵 DIDN’T READ THE ARTICLE
Ooof do I really need a /s on this?
What has the internet come to?
I’d sooner pretend I didn’t read the article than admit that was my idea of wit
Is this sarcasm? OMG I can’t tell anymore 😭. If yes please add /s.
It is the year 2025 and reality has unraveled to such an extent that Poe’s Law has the made the /s mandatory on all occasions of sarcasm or satire.
No i mean it literally is a stage play script satirizing Shabana Mahmood. Some of my favorite sections:
Shabana Mahmood had been dozing in bed when Shabana Mahmood had burst into her room and pulled back the duvet. Shabana forced her eyes open, trying to make sense of this unexpected intrusion. She reached for her phone. Where was her security detail? Surely this must be a mistake.
“I need to call Keir Starmer,” Shabana sobbed. “He will vouch for me. There must have been some mistake.”
“No mistake,” Shabana snarled. “And don’t go bleating to Keir. He’s the one who signed off on all this.
“Can’t you just give me a few more days? Why don’t you go and deport David Lammy first? I can give you his address.”
“This can’t be right. I couldn’t be more British if I tried. I’ve integrated so well I’ve even become home secretary. I’m a Labour politician whom Reform are happy to call one of their own. I have a couple of Union Jacks to drape myself in when I appear on GB News. I’ll even sign something to say I hate immigrants.”
“Not good enough, I’m afraid,” said Shabana. “The thing is you still look foreign. So pack up your things. On second thoughts, don’t bother. Because we’re going to take all your possessions anyway. Everything from your phone, your jewellery to your house. Just so no one comes over here with the idea that they can come over here, contribute and make a life for themselves.”
Fresh from deporting herself, Shabana appeared in the Commons late on Monday afternoon to give an update on her asylum and deportation policy. The system was broken, she said. There were dark forces at work. Somehow she made this sound as if she thought this was a good thing.
Last time I try and make a joke 🤣😞.
This is mannycalavera. They’re deadly serious.
I don’t think she’s done any of the sort? Didn’t she just make it harder to get Indefinite Leave to Remain as a refugee?
Hey, try reading the article before commenting.
It’s some weird nonsense about the Home Secretary deporting herself written by this guy
We had always given sanctuary to those who needed it, she said, only now we would kick them out as soon as possible
Yes it’s a lot easier to donate to charities when you’re not poor yourself
How exactly is Britain poor?
Public services may be poor, due to 15 years of austerity, but the country as a whole is not. It’s just concentrated in the hands of a very wealthy few who are so greedy and antisocial that they’d rather we all starve than they give up even a tiny percentage of their wealth.
Public services may be poor
People are also poor
Why poverty in the UK now is worse than 50 years ago and its grip is tightening every day

Worse than Rwanda: life prospects in Britain’s poorest areas
You’re confusing the experience of the average working class person with the purse strings of an entire nation.
Yes, people are poor. People are poor because wages have stagnated while prices and productivity have increased.
The capitalist class however have seen unprecedented wealth increase.
Britain is still among one of the richest countries in the world as a whole, despite its working class being squeezed for all they’re worth.
