Exactly James. And worth understanding why. The left abandoned the working class as its revolutionary vehicle when it became clear that working people were stubbornly patriotic and had no interest in dismantling the country they lived in. The replacement strategy was to dissolve the conditions that made national identity possible. No borders means no coherent demos. No coherent demos means no basis for the nation state. No nation state means the progressive internationalist project fills the vacuum. Mass immigration is not a humanitarian policy with unfortunate side effects. It is the mechanism. The border is the target because the nation is the target. And that is precisely why traditional Labour voters are turning their backs on Starmer. They did not leave Labour. Labour left them. The party that once existed to protect working people from economic exploitation now pursues a policy that suppresses their wages, overwhelms their services and dismisses their concerns as bigotry. They noticed. The polling confirms it.

Starmer and Reeves are not kidding when they say this political uncertainty causes economic damage. The only “reset” being achieved at the moment is higher borrowing costs. Result? We’re all worse off. So deeply depressing.

At the rally supporting British Jews outside Downing Street. After the Jews, they’ll come for the rest of us folks.

If you listen to anything today, let it be this 9-minute speech from @GideonFalter of @antisemitism at the rally against antisemitism, rightly excoriating the SHAME of Britain becoming unsafe for Jews. “End the Britifada. Britain: face down extremism.”

This is the time to #banIRGC

💥 In Brighton today a pro-Pal refused to take down posters that featured a Hamas red triangle and then resisted arrest. It is heartening to see action taken on that vile symbol and the people who use them. Thank you @sussex_police

One of the honours of my professional life to be asked to address the Standing Strong against antisemitism rally outside Downing Street today. Incredibly moving and powerful event - thanks to @JLC_uk, @BoardofDeputies and all who put it together

The days when the Jewish community is reassured merely by expressions of solidarity from political leaders are passing. Even the politicians speaking onstage at today’s rally against antisemitism outside Downing Street themselves accepted that words are not enough. Under two successive governments, the authorities have inertly watched the ‘intifada’ being not only ‘globalised’ but localised here in Britain. They have appeased the extremists, who have become more and more emboldened on their attacks on Jews. Drastic action is needed if Britain is really finally to face down the extremists, which is what the crowd that assembled today expect.

Chief Executive of CAA, @GideonFalter, said: “Those who called to “globalise the intifada” have succeeded. And now Britain is in the grip of its own localised intifada. We are in the early days of the Britifada. “Jews stabbed. That’s the Britifada! Murder on Yom Kippur. That’s the Britifada! Synagogues ablaze. That’s the Britifada! Hatzola ambulances pelted with rocks and torched. That’s the Britifada! Jewish children nearly mown down in a car ramming. That’s the Britifada! “The attacks are coming thick and fast. Because Britain has become radicalised. He called to ban the hate marches, ban the IRGC and ban the Muslim Brotherhood. “End the Britifada! Britain, face down extremists!”

“I have just been informed that Gordon Brown sold our gold at bottom and left the country penniless. I am furious with my officials for not telling me.”

That should do it. Red Wall voters kicking themselves today and saying “if only we’d known the bloke who thinks we’re racists was coming back we wouldn’t have voted Reform”. Er…

@AaronBastani I totally respect that people have different views to me on the Middle East. I have no time for the idea that what happens there is on the ballot in English local elections and is the first thing you prioritise in a poor borough with a load of problems

I have to live among people who voted for this nonsense. How about fixing the bins

What @Keir_Starmer & his team don’t understand is that many voters know that their security is linked to their employer’s security, when @RachelReevesMP cripples small businesses & piles on taxes voters know that we’re all put at risk. Without small businesses there is no future

Remember it’s only thanks to Reform that 4.5 million people can vote tomorrow. Labour tried to cancel the local elections to spare itself epic humiliation. Reform made a legal challenge against the tinpot tyrants.

Blah blah blah blah. What does any of this mean to Mrs Jones in Wigan, who just voted Reform. You don’t even speak her language.

This is deeply depressing

It's all falling apart for Zack Polanski. He claimed to be a spokesperson for the British Red Cross. He isn't. That was a lie. He claimed to be a member of the National Council of Hypnotherapy. He isn't. Another lie. He's a dangerous, dishonest, unhinged, far-left fantasist.

Cuando un actor de la talla de Michael Douglas habla, todo el panorama mediático se estremece. No es el tipo de actor que publica una noticia y la borra una hora después. No escribe tuits ambiguos que se prestan a múltiples interpretaciones. Michael Douglas se plantó ante las cámaras y declaró sin rodeos: el mundo ha perdido por completo su brújula moral. Israel, afirmó, está en la primera línea de la lucha. No una lucha por el territorio. No una lucha por el poder. Una lucha por los valores de todo el mundo occidental: democracia, libertad, derechos humanos. Todas esas cosas de las que la gente habla mucho en Twitter, pero por las que no está dispuesta a luchar. Rechazó de plano, sin dudarlo, cualquier intento de comparar a las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel con organizaciones terroristas extremistas. Tal comparación, dijo, es un insulto a la realidad. Un bando lanza cohetes contra civiles y se esconde tras niños. El otro bando llama a los civiles antes de un ataque y les ordena que se retiren. Comparar ambos no es una crítica, es ceguera moral. Y entonces pronunció la frase que lo resumía todo: una democracia debe defenderse con fuerza. No con publicaciones. No con declaraciones. Con fuerza. Michael Douglas no es solo un actor. Es un judío orgulloso que no se avergüenza, no se disculpa y no se rinde. Mientras todo Hollywood guarda silencio por miedo, él se mantiene firme.
