Trip advisors
THE woke brigade in the Home Office who spent years revolting against Tory efforts to curb illegal migration finally have an incentive to drop their opposition.
Sensibly, Chancellor Rachel Reeves has said she will spare deep cuts in the department — and potential job losses — IF it saves money on the spiralling hotel bill for migrants.

And the faster Home Secretary Yvette Cooper’s army of leftie civil servants meet these new targets, the more cash she can keep for other projects.
Skint Britain forks out £4million every day to house people who largely have no right to be here.
The problem is that the number of new arrivals isn’t slowing down.
Unless Labour ends the golden ticket to the El Dorado paradise of benefits, free housing and illegal work, that hotel bill will continue to rise.
Reform act
NIGEL Farage has Westminster dancing to his tune.
He has Labour pedalling leftwards over welfare and the Tories rightwards on immigration.
The Reform leader’s ear is well-tuned to discontent with the Government.
A desire for real change has delivered control of local councils to his fledgling party for the first time.
His problem now is how to show Reform can actually govern — without falling into mini-meltdowns like the ones caused by the exits of chairman Zia Yusuf and MP Rupert Lowe.
Reform’s surge has been stunning.
But being a one-showman band will only get Farage so far.
Court out
COULD the days of the European Court of Human Rights ruling over our borders finally be numbered?
Even the head of the European Council, which oversees the unelected court, is starting to accept it will have to adapt to the public’s concerns.
Leaders across Europe are waking up to the problems caused by mass migration and want urgent legal reform.
And Tory leader Kemi Badenoch is ready to quit the court — as is Reform.
Labour and its ECHR-loving Attorney General are out of step with the times.
Roll with it
WHO would have thought the Japanese would ever swap sushi rolls for those of the sausage variety?
Apparently, it all kicked off in Tokyo after tourists saw a waxwork of Greggs’ pastry snack at Madame Tussauds.
No word yet on whether it tasted better than a vegan sausage roll.
