NHS Englandโs Model Emergency Department guidance asks trusts to model demand and capacity. The real challenge is residual demand, supply-induced demand and unmet need.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

As a brown person with a non kiwi accent who was born here I would like to know how these people know who a โsuspected overstayerโ is. The constant Americanisation of this country is so annoying and gross. Why doesnโt Luxon just go back there if he loves it so much. Bro go back to Chicago.
Quick reminder that The Dawn Raids only targeted brown people at a time when our largest group of overstayers came from England.

This is the thing about the "Don't give them the pretext to send in more feds" arguments. The administration is using its own murder of an unarmed civilian as the pretext to send in more agents. They do not need a pretext and will invent them if they want.
ICE killed a Black man, Keith Porter, 7 days before Renee Good, and I hadn't heard about it until today. His vigils went unnoticed. His life came and gone and America forgot to blink.
Two Americas.
I donโt get why human civilisation is not progressing towards understanding that tackling airborne viruses need proactive preventive whole system approaches rather than the constant reactive panic in response to the damage they bring.
