The closer than the Tories get to Reform, the more it makes sense for Labour to leave them to it and head back towards the centre. Stop bashing immigrants 24/7 and concentrate on the important stuff.

Amateur. Here in the UK we are a proper fascist authoritarian state which imprisoned almost 500 innocent protestors for just turning up at the weekend.

Zack Polanski is sending out the message that you can both oppose Genocide and condemn attacks on jewish people in the UK.
And it is driving the Media insane because they want to cancel Genocide protests.

Mahmood: Pro-Palestinian protests 'un-British' after terror attack
The home secretary told BBC Breakfast she was disappointed pro-Palestinian protests went ahead.
"I do think that carrying on in this way does feel un-British, it feels wrong," she said.
I'd say protesting about genocide is right and very British... unless you have some other agenda enabling the support of the murder of innocents on a huge scale of course?

Two dead in Manchester synagogue attack, with suspect shot dead by police
Video from the scene, verified by the BBC, shows a man with items strapped around his waist. The attack happened on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
Reform's publicity people on Tufton St. will, as I write, be preparing racist dog-whistling press releases and lining up interviews with extremist right-wing media outlets just in case the perpetrator of this monstrous attack is dark skinned.

Michelle Mone should be forced to pay all the money back AND she should go to jail.
Like Lord Bamford, Nadhim Zahawi and all the rest.
If you rob somewhere, do you just pay the money back and not go to jail?
No you don't, should be same rules for everybody.

Why Keir Starmer wants to keep talking about Nigel Farage
The Labour leader insists his battle with Reform UK represents a different kind of political fight.
Pots & kettles time.
The organisation that loves to constantly talk up Farage and his faction of fascist frauds squeezes in another non-article all about him.
You can guess if they chose a pic of the frog-faced phoney or Starmer without looking, can't you?
