The home secretary has apparently expanded the list of people she’d like to deport to include her rivals from each main political party.
Shabana Mahmood was being interviewed by comedian Matt Forde in London’s West End when she said it but that hasn’t stopped the criticism.
BREAKING: Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood threatens to deport Green leader Zack Polanski.
Asked by the Telegraph who out of Polanski, Farage, Badenoch or Davey she would taser or deport, she said:
“I want to taser and then deport … all of them"

Shabana Mahmood is spitting mad
If you’re unfamiliar with Forde, he’s the man who wrote what may be the worst comedy sketch of all time mocking Jess Phillips, who was then shadow minister for domestic violence and safeguarding.
The fact that Labour MPs still talk to this guy is surprising, but here we are.
Matt forde being horny for Jess Phillips is not what I needed to see before midday on a Monday https://t.co/CTb2R3N1EL

Mahmood was also asked which of the opposition leaders – Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch, Zack Polanski or Sir Ed Davey – she would either deport or taser. She replied: “You are talking to me so I want to taser and then deport… all of them.”
What does “You are talking to me” mean? Is she implying she has some sort of violent and uncontrollable condition? This is the sort of response the Joker would give, not a government minister.
If @Nigel_Farage said he’d ‘taser and deport’ a political opponent we’d have a week long media feeding frenzy – led by the Labour Party.
But @ShabanaMahmood can say that about political opponents and it’s….fine?

Do we want a home secretary to be making jokes about deporting people? The obvious answer is no. It makes her seem like an inhumane monster who doesn’t care about human suffering. That or she’s someone who enjoys inflicting it.
I do not think there is any context in which it is acceptable for the Home Secretary to threaten to inflict violent attacks on the persons of opposition leaders and suggest she intends to strip them of their citizenship and deport them.
This is a very, very grim moment.

Home secretary tells hecklers to ‘fuck right off’
Mahmood also got upset because hecklers accused her of copying Reform. The home secretary then responded by saying the hecklers could “fuck right off”.
She said:
I’m not going to let a tinpot racist or some random heckler, or anybody else claw away at the foundations of who I am as a person.
I’m a proud English woman. I’m a proud Brit. I’m a hugely proud Muslim. That is the absolute core of my life.
Then added:
I do think there is that element of it which is: ‘How dare you, a brown woman, say a thing that we white liberals think you’re not allowed to say?’ Well, I’m saying it.
This is the Labour of today in a nutshell, isn’t it?
On the policy front, they want to enact the cruel right-wing proposals of Reform; on the rhetoric front, they want to deploy 2010s-style identity politics.
You can’t do the ‘I’m a proud, Brown woman with multitudes‘ shtick when you’re defending a wretched system that dehumanises Brown women.
Having their cake and deporting it
Voters have seen through Labour at this point. Many ex-voters think the party is unnecessarily cruel now while others don’t believe they’re cruel enough.
Lab is now losing far more votes to Greens (7.4pts) than to Reform (3.6pts).
Overall, a majority of 2024 Lab voters are now backing other parties, and a whopping 70% of those are fleeing leftward.
Lab’s collapse is not the result of a right-wing surge, but of left-wing dissent. pic.twitter.com/OpdGfeLzw2

Mahmood can crack wise with pervert comedians all she likes, but the real joke is Labour’s polling.
