Incapability Assessment

Jeremy Corbyn called Theresa May's Immigration Bill, which has caused all the Windrush trouble, "dog-whistle politics." John McDonnell called it, "the most racist piece of legislation since the 1960s." Yet Yvette Cooper, as Shadow Home Secretary, called it, "sensible."

The Guardian and the BBC love Cooper, and the latter lavishes coverage on her Commons contributions. Her husband softens up the broadly apolitical public for her by his appearances on light entertainment programmes. But she gave a grateful nation the Work Capability Assessment, which has resulted in many thousands of deaths. And she cheered on May's "hostile environment". She is a nasty piece of work.
