RT by @JeanLambertLDN: I think I've finally got a grip on the govt's latest strategy.🧵
You have to earn £38,000 to move to this country.
Which means 75% of British citizens are now officially too poor to be here.

RT by @JeanLambertLDN: Also (loosely related) - my son was born outside UK but inherits my British passport, but is somehow lesser.
Depending who he marries and where his children are born they may not be granted British citizenship as he was.
Which does not sound so bad until you realise that there are many combinations where the baby could be born with no valid claim to any nationality at all…

RT by @JeanLambertLDN: Jenny Jones, "Look at the government's plans to actually spy on the bank accounts of those receiving benefits... It really is a new low in this government's constant vile behaviour"
"Never in our history has the government intruded on the privacy of anyone's bank account without any good reason. And now we're treating all people on benefits as potential criminals"
"If MPs think this is a good idea, then why don't we ask them to go first? With all the cases of corruption, second jobs and undeclared incomes, would MPs be ok if the banks had the ability to raise red flags on their accounts? That does seem to make sense doesn't it? Just test the system before we use it on other people"

RT by @JeanLambertLDN: Ministers last week rushed an amendment through the Commons, allowing it to look into the bank account of everybody claiming State Pension. Their only reason was that it might be useful one day. The only change which could make it useful would be to means test the State Pension
