“No more foreign wars”. And that’s going how?
Guaranteeed to produce a wave of legal challenges which - Trump style - might be the aim.
I suspect the real message is we won’t pay for any form of welfare for asylum seekers.
And then there are groups like ARAP scheme members who were categorically promised such access to benefits.
The subject is insanely complex, particularly when you take account of NRPF conditions in visas that do most of this work already.
(Iii) bilateral Treaties on benefit reciprocation (eg pensions and other contrib benefits as with say Commonwealth countries or Switzerland) and healthcare reciprocation.
So Reform UK is going to limit payment of benefits to UK nationals. Presumably they have thought carefully about how this is compatible with our international and domestic obligations like: (I) the Withdrawal Agreement Pt2; (ii) the SS provisions of the TCA; and …
Could a match be any more Spursy?
Superb…
Wow. As a triangulating set of comments on a man's best character (when he had so much to be conceited about, or worse), this takes some beating. What a man. Enough to bring a tear to the eye. More like him desperately needed: www.theguardian.com/film/2025/se...
For any NGO that is upset it may be well worth getting a waste guru (not me, as haven’t done a landfill or waste case for about 10y) to have a good pick over!
Leachate is horrid stuff, particularly as landfills have less and less organic material. As a waste product there would need to be licensed handling, waste transfer notices, licensed disposal etc.
I don’t know the answer off the top of my head, but I suspect there is either an EA policy and consents authorising this (in which case it may be challenged by JR) or there are not, in which case, leachate being “waste” for the relevant regs, there may be potential criminal consequences.
What is the point in regulating leachate in a landfill permit (v strict control because of the dangers it poses to human life and environment if it escapes) only to allow it to be mixed with sewage in a plant that cannot treat its pollutants & then spread on land, only to leach into the watercourse?
This story, if true, is a disgrace: www.theguardian.com/environment/....
The failure to provide a duty solicitor., who if worth their salt would have sorted this out, is a sadly common if egregious failing after legal aid cuts…
“First they came for the gardeners, and then they came for the carpenters” etc, etc. This is plainly ridiculous: www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
Lots of stand outs but I thought Leah Williamson was superb - not a foot wrong in the actual match. Even her saved penalty was decent producing a great save. Carter and Bronze also brilliant. Bronze also wins the “clearly most fun at a party award”.
Beautiful, admirable daylight robbery!
“She was a blonde who thought the law was cool, she studied it at Harvard Law School” etc etc. Did @barristersecret.bsky.social live tweet it?
Jonathan, not kind. Not kind at all.
U2? Easy listening/MoR Dad rock! One word you don’t use with them - taxing.
Finally something I can agree vigorously on with JRM.
If anyone deserved to discover they had an original Magna Carta right now it is Harvard.
Jeeesh, that’s some potent bat shit.
And I thought you would have gone down the “gooseberry, raspberry” route…!
Blackfriars is pretty hard to beat for stations with views from the platform. Where else would you nominate?
