Calling out Reformβs racism will ring hollow while Labour offers watered-down versions of their migration policies.
We can only prevent a Reform-led government if we do not allow migrants to be scapegoated for problems created by the super rich.

BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview
The new Green Party leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted a conference interview on the flagship BBC show
The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.
This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Poster from the Mayor of London about Oxford Street. The text reads: "This is Oxford Street. Traffic-free day delivered a big boost for businesses. Footfall was up nearly 50%." The background is a gradient of pink to orange, with a large crowd of people walking along Oxford Street, which is lined with trees and banners.
When Oxford Street went traffic-free for one extraordinary day, the number of visitors flocking there increased by nearly 50%.
By choosing to be imaginative and bold, we can deliver a better future for Oxford Street: a cleaner, traffic-free world-class public space.

Not a single mention of the NHS--not least in the section on what the Tories did in government that, in her words, "lost us the trust and confidence of the public". Unless the Party gets the extent to which the crippling of key public services helped lose them the election, then they're truly sunk.
