Zoe GardnerIt’s Groundhog Day on immigration again. Whatchu reckon? Labour gonna have done enough this time to stop people who hear nothing but scare stories about immigration voting for Reform? 🤔 No one believes Labour can win this fight. As always the foreigners pay the price <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerThey’re following the same failed logic as the Tories, burying their head in the sand We can make it disappear by making migrants’ lives as hard as humanly possible. The evidence is in after 13 years of the Hostile Environment: er, nope. Looks like people still move 😑 <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerThey’re expanding the criminalisation of work for migrants. Will this stop migrants from working? OBVIOUSLY NOT. What it will do is fuel situations like this, where an Iranian asylum seeker died because of dangerous working conditions because he had no right to demand a safe workplace <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerThe major announcement the Labour govt is making on immigration this week? A further expansion of Theresa May’s Hostile Environment.🤦‍♀️ You know the one with the Go Home vans & the Windrush Scandal? Oh yeah, that policy is *still* going strong. Still achieving nothing. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerAnother summit on irregular migration 🙄 Another chance for international cooperation to create safe, regulated means of travel for people seeking safety & opportunity that our leaders won’t take. Another pantomime of promises: no THIS money on border enforcement will finally work <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Steve WoodsUK defence secretary on <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/r4today" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a> too cowardly to admit rise in defence spending is due to Trump's bullying.

Philip C JamesMorning, all,Dear <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BBC</a>, President Donald Trump is not "interested in lasting peace" in Ukraine (or anywhere else in Europe threatened by Putin).<a href="https://mas.to/tags/Krasnov" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Krasnov</a> is only interested in a "peace" that lasts just long enough for him to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.It'd look so good on his trophy shelf next to the three championship cups awarded him by his own golf resort in Palm Beach, FL. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SlavaUkrayini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SlavaUkrayini</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/POTUS45" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#POTUS45</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/POTUS404" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#POTUS404</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/AgentOrange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AgentOrange</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/TraitorTrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TraitorTrump</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/R4Today" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#R4Today</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BBCnews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BBCnews</a> <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/3349447/trump-wins-third-consecutive-golf-championship-following-yemen-strikes/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/3349447/trump-wins-third-consecutive-golf-championship-following-yemen-strikes/</a>

Zoe GardnerIt is not disabled & mentally ill people who have amassed ever-growing fortunes over the last decade, it is the richest whose wealth has ballooned. We must redistribute wealth - our communities will not see the investment we desperately need off the backs of the poor. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerListening to this pathetic excuse for a Labour MP trying to defend these ideological cuts is literally INDISTINGUISHABLE from the Osbourne era Tories’ arguments. It was a disaster then & it’s a disaster & a betrayal now. A total lie that it reflects the manifesto they were elected on. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerIt’s not just that it’s morally indefensible for Labour to cut more disability support than Tories ever dreamed of. It’s that we have been living in the fallout from the last round of austerity & they have learnt absolutely NOTHING. Making the poor poorer COSTS US MORE <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe Gardner"We are not going to come forward with a wealth tax" Labour spelling it out for anyone who had any doubt. Squarely in the corner of the richest. Refusing to tax assets & property anywhere near as high as they tax people in work. The poor will have to pay again. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Rob PumphreyJust heard the first 'in and of itself ' on <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/r4today" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>When you feel yourself doing this, please don't.

Zoe GardnerNadia making the real moral case when it comes to welfare on <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a> Responding to truly disgusting questions about “incentivising” people out of disability through benefits cuts. Protecting sick & disabled people from poverty is not only morally right, but saves money long term. Cuts cost more.

Zoe GardnerCutting benefits payments *specifically* for people deemed unable to work due to illness or disability is a genuinely shocking choice from Labour. Aside from the incredibly obvious moral horror of it, it shows how our economy is set up all wrong. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>

Zoe GardnerMAGA freak on <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a> defending JD Vance by echoing far right talking points from the UK - calling migrants an invasion. Are we joining the dots yet? They want our anger directed at homeless foreigners instead of the billionaire bully boys who are looting the whole world.

Mark RobertsHappy <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23FollowBackFriday" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FollowBackFriday</a> everyone. The UK should look to extradite the Tates as soon as possible to face charges for alleged offences committed here.

Zoe GardnerWe have Cooper on <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a> with yet another crime bill, which, I mean, sure… What about the crime that is energy bosses fleecing us for more than we’ve got?

Steve WoodsI had the misfortune to listen to <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/r4today" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a> this morning.All the programme seemed to do was big up the worst people in the world at the moment: <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Muskrat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Muskrat</a>, <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/FeloniousTrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FeloniousTrump</a> and <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/VladTheInvader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VladTheInvader</a>. :(

Zoe GardnerOn denying refugees citizenship, I’m choosing my response really carefully. It’s cynical. This issue has been pushed on GBNews the last weeks, because the new Borders Bill actually repealed unused Tory legislation that imposed the requirement to remove anyone who arrives irregularly. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23r4today" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#r4today</a>
