Very bad news. Every vote on #IllegaMigrationBill lost. It will now go through.
Conservatives whipped viciously, I hear. Saw lots of people never seen before, or heard speak, walking through their lobby.
#democracy & #RuleofLaw - they’d be a good idea

Natalie Bennett: Sadly bad news from #HouseofLords #IllegalMigrationBill
First vote - on having regard to international law - lost. But talk is we might do better in later, narrower amendments. Stay tuned…

A sad day for asylum seekers and the UK as a whole, but the fight is a long way from over. Anyone supporting this bill is supporting state mandated child abuse, trafficking, and the undermining of international law. This bill will be opposed. #r4today

A depressing day we always knew would come, Braverman’s revolting ‘illegal migration’ bill is set to become law.
Her predecessor Priti Patel’s legislation was based on the same principles of hate. It has been all but dropped as it didn’t work. This one will be the same #r4today https://t.co/rdOdJWFzhC

Bitterly disappointing to see the illegal migration bill pass the Lords. It's not just a bog-standard piece of bad legislation. It's an abnegation of Britain's moral responsibility and a foresaking of practical, workable responses to refugee flows.

In a nutshell, a rather serious problem with the way we negotiate trade agreements: Parliamentary scrutiny of “the docs” shouldn’t “start” after the docs have already been signed. Stable doors, horse bolted, and all that.
<div class="rsshub-quote">
Graham Zebedee: We’ll now:
-send our CPTPP docs to Parliament, starting scrutiny
-work up proposals for implementing laws
-encourage CPTPP members to ratify our accession quickly
-help UK companies benefit from CPTPP
-play an active role on widening & deepening CPTPP

Like everywhere,the far right in Spain (Vox) is the climate denial party too, although Spain is already hard hit by the climate crisis. Could have a negative impact on climate action in case of a coalition govt with the PP, which hasn’t exactly been a climate champion itself.

Hundreds of children seeking asylum in the UK are being wrongly categorised as adults and handed new birthdays by Border Force in minutes.
Some end up in detention centres, others threatened with Rwanda deportation.
I've spent weeks looking into this🧵

Your regular reminder that the #RefugeeBanBill is not the "will of the people". The @Conservatives manifesto promise was to protect asylum seekers, not violate international law, lock children away, and deport people to countries where they face persecution or death. #r4today https://t.co/4EJwef9vz3
