No Keir, we're angry with you. Immigrants didn't cut the Winter Fuel Allowance - you did. Immigrants didn't cut support payments for disabled people - you did. Immigrants didn't cut funding for farmers - you did. Stop scapegoating immigrants and start taking responsibility
I know you're angry about immigration. I get it. Mark my words: I will take back control of our borders. That means cutting migration, ending the use of asylum hotels, and ramping up our efforts to stop small boat crossings. We will smash the people smuggling gangs at source.

My sympathy and support for all the international students and postdocs at Harvard. I can only imagine how scary this must feel. Stay strong. And if there's anything I can do to help those in compbio, please reach out. All of us need to rally to help them out. 1/
If you're an international PhD student at Harvard working on something that my lab is familiar with and you're at risk of deportation, shoot me an email. We may be able to host you or find someone else who can.
