Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. “It is time to choose sides; fascism or morality? Big tech has made their choice.”

LABOUR’S failure to tackle the “manufactured panic” around immigration was exposed today as new polling showed just one in four people think it’s important in their community.Only 26 per cent of people included immigration and asylum among the three most important issues facing them locally.This was half the 52 per cent who ranked it as one of the biggest issues facing the country as a whole.
