Prepare to see a lot more hostility against migrants in the UK as the Conservatives shift ever further to the right in some misguided approach to scraping up more votes. Reality is though that attitudes towards immigration are softening and anti-immigration attitudes declining. They're going to appeal to what is a very vocal, but dwindling, group of racists rather than implementing policies which could benefit everyone and actually encourage people to vote for them.

Supporting a free and independent Ukraine is not the same as Ukraine is perfect. I get tired of folks who rightfully say "Ukraine has an X problem" and feel that is justification to let the country be consumed by the people who attacked it and continue to try and level it.

Difficult, I imagine, if you are public sector worker using a Foodbank, or relying on in-work benefits, to be lectured on pay restraint by people who turned our economy into a casino.
