Mahmood rules out joining Reform after MP praises rhetoric' on asylum seekers
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Despite this initial praise, Mr Kruger expressed significant reservations to MPs, fearing that new asylum policies would not "stop the lawfare" he claims failed asylum seekers use to delay and block their removal from the country. Ms Mahmood unveiled a series of measures on Monday, explicitly designed to "tackle the pull factors that draw people into this country. These include plans to remove benefits from refugees who "are able to work but choose not to.""
The Independent covers diverse issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech while offering free access to reporting funded by donations. The newsroom emphasizes sending journalists to gather facts and present both sides. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood unveiled measures intended to tackle pull factors driving migration, including removing benefits from refugees deemed able to work but unwilling to. Former Conservative MP Danny Kruger welcomed Mahmood's rhetoric but warned MPs that the new asylum policies may not stop legal challenges he calls "lawfare" that delay removals. Proposed changes would narrow Article 8 and restrict the definition of family.
