This article explores how immigration affects the UK economy, why people flee their homelands, and how dehumanising language used by public figures fuels fear, hostility and division.

The PPE Scandal And Accountability

At present, an aspiring MP only needs a political party membership, a following, and £500 to stand for election. Unlike CEOs or professionals in the private sector, there is no requirement for qualifications in law, business, economics, or leadership. As a result, half of those elected may not be fit for the complex responsibilities of governance. If CEOs or seasoned business leaders had been tasked with managing PPE contracts, the outcome would have been drastically different. In the private sector, £10 billion wasted would mean immediate dismissal, asset recovery, and criminal investigation.

Angela Rayner Stamp Duty and Resignation

Angela Rayner’s case highlights a bigger issue than one politician’s finances. It raises questions about trust, accountability, and fairness in the political system. While the courts or HMRC may decide whether any wrongdoing occurred, the court of public opinion has already drawn its verdict: the public demands equality before the law. No one, regardless of their position, should be able to bypass responsibilities that ordinary citizens would face the full force of the law for. If the rules apply to us, they must apply to them, too.
