The comments made by Anneliese Dodds, the Chair of the Labour Party, on 1 November 2022.
Hate crimes targeting Muslims rose by 28% in the last year, accounting for 42% of all religiously-motivated hate crimes. This #IAM2022, Labour stands united against this pervasive hatred. Labour’s Race Equality Act will tackle the racial inequality that scars our society.
The comments made by Ian Blackford, the Leader of the SNP in Westminster, on Twitter on 1 November 2022.
Rishi Sunak has no mandate to impose devastating Tory austerity cuts – or, indeed, any mandate at all.
With the Tories and Labour Party imposing Brexit and cuts, independence is the only way to keep Scotland safe and get back on the path to prosperity.
The comments made by Yvette Cooper, the Shadow Home Secretary, on 1 November 2022.
No Home Secretary serious about public safety or national security would use the language Suella Braverman did the day after a petrol bomb attack on a Dover centre.
But that’s the point. She isn’t serious about any of those things
Ramps up rhetoric because has no answers.
The comments made by Jacob Rees-Mogg, the Conservative MP for North East Somerset in the Spectator on 31 October 2022.
On the way back from Coventry, the news that Liz Truss was resigning came through. Liz is an admirable person and I supported what she wanted to do. Unfortunately, it did not work. The moment she went, the telephone started buzzing with potential candidates and slates. I wanted Boris back, as he had the mandate and his removal was a mistake. His campaign started well but then ran out of steam. This was clear by Sunday morning, when my slumbers were disturbed by the great man himself prior to the Laura Kuenssberg programme. Unlike the famous farmer, the lark is not my morning alarmer, so I was not entirely gruntled by so early a call.
The comments made by James Cleverly, the Foreign Secretary, on Twitter on 31 October 2022.
Today I met the Prime Minister of Kosovo, @albinkurti ahead of the Berlin Process Summit. We discussed the Kosovo-Serbia relationship and the need for courage and compromise to benefit people in both countries. UK-Kosovo relations are strong and long-standing
The comments made by Bell Ribeiro-Addy, the Labour MP for Streatham, on Twitter on 31 October 2022.
The Home Secretary just stood up in Parliament and described asylum seekers arriving in the UK as “an invasion”.
Exactly the kind of inflammatory rhetoric that stokes people towards acts of violence like yesterday’s petrol bombing in Dover. Despicable.
The comments made by Jeremy Corbyn, the Independent MP for North Islington, on Twitter on 31 October 2022.
The appalling conditions at Manston and the terror attack at Dover reflect a decades-long campaign to dehumanise refugees.
This is not a migrant crisis. This is a humanitarian crisis.
Expand safe routes, close down detention centres, and end the hostile environment.
The comments made by Anne McLaughlin, the SNP MP for Glasgow North East, on Twitter on 31 October 2022.
Disgusted, absolutely disgusted to hear a Home Secretary deliberately use inflammatory language about vulnerable asylum seekers – ‘scourge’, ‘invasion’. Here’s a word for you @SuellaBraverman – SHAMEFUL.
The comments made by Anneliese Dodds, the Chair of the Labour Party, on 31 October 2022.
Appalling that the Minister for Women appears to think intimidation at abortion clinics is comforting.
The Prime Minister must explain if he shares that view.
Labour voted to bring in buffer zones to protect vulnerable women in this vulnerable situation.
The comments made by Zarah Sultana, the Labour MP for Coventry South, on Twitter on 31 October 2022.
Disgusted to hear Suella Braverman say there’s an “invasion on our southern coast”, just a day after a migrant detention centre was fire-bombed.
Language like this – portraying migrants as “invaders” – whips-up hate & spreads division.
She’s totally unfit to be Home Secretary.
