The ex director of communications for David Cameron pushing the narrative that the welfare budget is out of control. Not true of course.
Jonathan Portes in July: "Theres a lot of nonsense talked, including on Sky, about the spiralling welfare bill.. as a proportion of our national income.. its lower than it was 15yrs ago & its pretty much back to what it was under Thatcher.. this idea its out of control is just wrong"

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

Canada should judge any incoming government by what it does to dismantle these structures. Replacing Netanyahu alone cannot justify a restoration of normal diplomatic relations.
