Laughable to hear the Tories including cruella von ritchoven bravermaen slagging off labour when it was actually 900,000 under them

Absolute bunch of tossers

They have some brass neck that lot

I hope if reform have any use its to strangle them out of seats and hand the keys to labour and the liberals
Was desperately hoping this wouldnt be a party political thing. All the above applies to what Blair and Brown said too.

The point is what the heck are Labour (as the current govt) gonna do about it?

I read in one of the articles, that of those that came to the UK in one year, 170,000 were under 16. That's about 6,000 classrooms!

The numbers now are extraordinary and not in any way comparable to the era that any of us grew up in.

I really do think dealing with this spans across the political spectrum, and was pleased to see how seriously Starmer talked about it today, although I am doubtful of how successful he will be
