Not Who We'd Care to Admit We Are

Legitimate and understandable as some concerns may be, especially to people who are worried about living on an island of strangers, there still have to be limits if economic growth is to be sustained, the Righteous State successfully defended and the beastly foreigns kept from our sacred shores. Thus the CEO of Team Starmer has proclaimed, in the wake of yesterday's far-right rally, that the English flag is not to be surrendered to those who would use it as a symbol of violence, fear and division. The CEO of Team Starmer famously has a house full of English flags, none of which are symbols of anything but pride in tolerance, diversity and respect for anyone who doesn't argue that skin colour might be a factor in racism or that something which looks like a genocide, sounds like a genocide and has been extensively advertised by its perpetrators as a genocide might in fact be a genocide. Meanwhile, in an encouraging victory for law and order, the Metropolitan Police arrested twenty-four out of the hundred-and-something thousand non-supporters of Palestine Action who were present.
