Some background on this footage. I think police swept in because they were desperate to get an arrest on camera. By this stage, several hours in, they’d arrested maybe 50 people. Unfortunately, they tackled her just as she’d finished telling me about her grandparents’ and father’s experiences of the holocaust. It was an incredibly jarring and utterly grotesque moment

The moment, mid-interview, that the daughter of a Holocaust survivor is arrested for protesting the proscription of Palestine Action.

"We will also be redoubling our efforts on campaigning to expose the risk of Reform, a party who seeks to divide our communities. This election has to be about how to make the super-rich pay their fair share, how we tackle the cost-of-living crisis with lower bills and affordable housing, and how we protect our public services and our green spaces. It has to be about offering Makerfield hope over hate.”

A Green Party Spokesperson said, “We wish Chris the best and understand that family has to come first. As a party, we are re-opening nominations now because we believe people in Makerfield deserve a real choice at this by-election, and the Green Party will be standing to offer exactly that. Across the country, more and more voters are turning away from the old parties and looking for politicians who will genuinely stand up for their communities."

Reviving the Brexit debate is "quite the stall to set out when you’re pitching for the biggest job in politics," writes @StevenJMethven. "Guaranteed to turn the stomach of one chunk of the electorate, overstimulate the hope cores of another, and send the rest into a spiral of screaming pub lunch flashbacks, little could be more divisive."

@AvidInquirer That’s fair analysis, but still a non-move since what the elections show is that it’s not loyal Labourites he needs to signal to?

@StevenJMethven Its for labourites, who will understand that the right wing faction that has controlled him to date are not aligned with Gordon Brown. He is signifying he’s going to change, because he can now because McSweeney is gone, Mandelson has no influence, Streeting cowed.

loving all the pundits repeatedly saying the local elections will change the face of British politics forever dun dun dun as though it's a weather event, rather than a mass rejection by the people -- divided as they might currently be -- of them and the powers they serve

"There are literally hundreds or thousands of people who have just vanished... and many of them have been last seen in the presence of Israeli troops." @AlexCrawfordSky tells me about the newsroom-wide effort to trace the last known movements of a mother and daughter in Gaza who were last seen alive in Israeli military custody.
