Labour are trying to appease the right spreading itself far too thin trying to adhere to donors, fix the mess the Tories left behind and basically continually getting it wrong. They could have been strong, they look weak. They could have said, this is what we will do, tax the rich. Instead, crumbs.

Aditya does it again! Excellent article, spot on.

Davey and Zack Polanski and some of Labour's backbench are the only politicians speaking out against the grifter Farage. Our PM remains silent.

In the UK, we arrest peaceful demonstrators. We have climate activists in prison. We erased Banksy's political statement. We silence dissenters. Our PM stirs immigration division on X and welcomes Thiel and Musk to do business in the UK. How is this any different from what is happening in the US?

It's been over for a while now, with the likes of Blackstone, Tesla (via energy) and Palintir industries getting a foot hold in the UK. Welcome to America!

Not for long. It was always going to be so. Now we have the MOD in a deal with Palintir. We have Musk looking towards our home energy supply. Starmer let the evil in, we haven't much of a chance now when the most powerful men on the planet will be controlling vital aspects of our society.

Ewww.

It is and always will be about money. While the people get crumbs, deals enrich the powerful and greedy. Same old story, there are no morals and ethics when it comes to politicians.

US cash turned Tommy Robinson into the poster boy of UK f... Outside the Old Bailey in 2018, a reinvented Tommy Robinson flashed his perfect new teeth to 2,000 diehard supporters at a “free Tommy” rally on a stage ...

How US cash and being unbanned by Musk transformed racist thug Tommy Robinson into a poster boy of the far right.

Most transformative was cash from ultra Zionist US tech tycoon Robert Shillman, who has also backed far-right “influencers” Katie Hopkins, Laura Loomer, Charlie Kirk and Geert Wilders.

Why live in a country where you can't even attend a sports game without heavy security? If I had all her money I would move to a country where I could be free. This is insanity.

Germany in the 30's, daily life went on. People went to the Cinemas, shops, and restaurants. Until they became too fearful to speak out by then it was too late. We are allowing this to happen again. Our Government is allowing this to happen again. No excuses, we know how it ends.

The far right movement is well-funded. Labour's lack of addressing media complicity and indeed Labour's efforts in instigating anti immigration sentiment by bending over to reform voters. Asylum seekers and refugees will contribute far more to our society than the knuckle draggers protesting.

If you began work in 1980, around 20 years old, 6 global recessions, market crashes, 87, 2008, 2010, 2011. Loss of job security. Which means not everyone stayed in the same job for 50 years dragging their private pensions with them. This article is ignorant in its assumptions.

Sick of pandering to this ignorant rhetoric from a group of far right knuckle draggers who make all the noise and get handed a golden ticket for their efforts. I'd rather asylum seekers than the neanderthals screeching outside their hotels. Now this. Have we no shame?

Women do not need men like this to protect them. Women are smart enough to know, choose the bear.

Authoritarianism makes the rich, richer. We are following America into authoritarianism, and the billionaires have bought our politicians and our media. If it wasn't true Starmer would change course, his silence tells us all we need to know.

As per the article, Labour posted 15 times in one week stirring immigration issues on X, a far-right platform. This is no different than the Trump/Reform playbook. We have lost the war and the rich have won as we slide towards authoritarianism. Labour is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

It is an abomination. Hard to understand why the government is taking such a hard line and can't separate the two issues. One, a proscribed organisation and the other, older protesters disgusted with our government's complicity and should have the right to protest peacefully.

Such a shame, but for every good thing Labour may do to get the country back on track, the next moment we are faced with something like this. Unforgivable. They have zero conscience. Cosying up to such vile human beings as Vance and Trump. For that, I highly doubt I could vote Labour again.

83% of those committing sexual crimes/abuse against children are white British. Let's ask Kemi how she feels about that.

1930's style propaganda campaign. Flood all media with lies. Divide, anger. Most educated people know the UK to be a wonderfully, diverse country.

Proscribing Palestine action is one of the most ridiculous things Labour have done. They ignore fascists attacking police and hotels, yet they arrest the peaceful and elderly. Are they hopeful we will forget by the next election? No one wants to see their loving granny threatened with prison.

🚨 This morning we turned the street outside Labour Party Headquarters in London into Jabaliya camp in Gaza.

Listen to @ahmedmasoud02.bsky.social talking about what the Israeli army did to his neighourhood and family.

Trump's press conference today, in summary: DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN! ARREST ALL MY POLITICAL OPPONENTS! I'M NOT MAD! I'M NOT GUILTY! OBAMA!

Labour got this so very wrong. I won't forgive watching peaceful grans being arrested, while far-right thugs attack police and nothing is said. We know who the real terrorists are and it isn't grannies with a conscience.

It is a disgrace. Tying up courts with peaceful elderly people. Time and a waste of money for the police and courts. Do Labour think 16-year-olds will vote for them after having arrested their grandparents? Does Cooper have a freaking clue?

The country has moved forward and a significant amount of people want closer ties with Europe and to rejoin as soon as possible. But Nigel Farage’s default position hasn’t changed for nearly 20 years. We don’t want these dinosaurs leading our country. We want people who evolve

Starmer's problem is communication, we don't know who he is. To get to the heart of the most cynical, Starmer needs to be front and centre and personable. If he went full on Obama it might help. Currently, he is unrelatable and if people can't relate to him, they won't vote for him. Good article.

I'd rather pay more tax now than have to pay for private health care later. Pay more now for education, then have to bail my grandchild out of jail later. You get the picture. Willing to suffer a bit now if things will improve in the future.
