So those of you were hoping for a change under Andy Burnham's incoming administration around the politics of immigration will be sorely disappointed to find that Shabana Mahmood has not been moved to the Chancellorship but remains at the Home Office.

So, I'm guessing for many Burnham's 'change' agenda is already fatally compromised (unless Mahmood is going to work to a different set or priorities for Burnham?)

"Ms Mahmood has appeared to suggest that the concept could be extended to society writ large. Her vision was “that the eyes of the state can be on you at all times”, she said"

This is our new Chancellor if the rumours are true.

Needless to say, Labour won't deliver what the Public want and will lose the next election, and I don't think they even care.

Shabana seems only interested in punishing her own people for daring to make a life in White Britain, Bigots are never good with the Economy, their Bigotry always comes first.....look at the USA.

Absolutely no change what so ever. And commentators are confusing "The North" with automatically being "Working Class", which is so wrong I don't even know where to begin....

"More Of The Same"

I note that commentators on Bluesky who support Andy Burnham are already on the defensive....

EDIT: and one on Mastodon now!

Labour are fucked. It should have been Ed Miliband but Labour ain't here for the Voters, it's here for the Epstein Class.

"Every day I'm more ashamed to live in this country

"Generosity": not the word I'd use for a levying a retroactive tax on people fleeing war and persecution, for the privilege of living in substandard conditions while politicians abuse them and strangers threaten to burn them out of their bedrooms"

It would be worth the problems of a General Election to be rid of her.

#GreenParty leader #ZackPolanski and #YourParty leader #JeremyCorbyn have joined calls for the #British government to investigate British citizens who have served in the #Israeli military.

Polanski signed an open letter organised by Declassified UK and the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) to Home Secretary #ShabanaMahmood and Foreign Secretary #YvetteCooper urging them to "track the movements of Brits who have served in the IDF" and "subject them to secondary screening where necessary at ports of entry".

The letter called for "robust war crimes investigations in line with domestic and international law".
