£50 000 worth of #windows busted by *one* angry man in #Kent - unclear what the motive was for this (nothing was stolen from either business), and it doesn't seem the businesses (a motor factors and a funeral director) were targeted for their nature (it may simply be they were in a corner of town that has an easy getaway route, as the Police turned up fairly quickly according to Facebook reports about same incident)

The #CCTV these days is of really good quality, as sharp as ITV's own news cameras!

Councillors walk out of migration emergency debate

Kent County Council has declared an “illegal migration emergency” after opposition councillors walked out of a debate in protest.

The authority passed a motion, put forward by Reform UK councillors, stating that the county was a “frontier for the influx of illegal migrants” and residents were “dealing with the consequences”.

Other parties chose to leave the chamber ahead of the vote, claiming the debate breached electoral rules ahead of a by-election for the Cliftonville ward, with Liberal Democrat group leader Antony Hook stating that the motion was “based on prejudicial, discriminatory assumptions”.

Key phrases from this article include:

• divisive fantasy debates staged during a vital pre-by-election period
• stunt for political purposes during an election
• complained to the Electoral Commission
