Gosh just from eyeballing the graph I wonder if anyone can think of something that might have happened around idk 2016 to cause a further deterioration?
Spoiling a lot of takes but begging a large number of other questions... "Worsening graduate fortunes, it turns out, are a particularly British problem"

There is no scenario in which ICE can continue to exist. I will never support or vote for ANY candidate who thinks ICE should continue to exist, regardless of reform. You do not reform a secret militarized force.
OMG I thought Arthur was joking about what the terms would be but I just read it and he isn’t

“The idea that some people may freely poison others is one of the most astonishing but least contested aspects of modern life.”
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.
