Gareth Roberts, in the Spectator, on our “fascinatingly awful” Labour government:

Right now, Starmer is spluttering about X, accusing Elon Musk’s platform of ‘protecting their abusive users’ rather than ‘the women and children who are being abused’, which apparently ‘shows a total distortion of priorities’. He is pronouncing loftily from that hillock of the moral high ground occupied by people disgusted by fake bikini pics, but who didn’t do much more than shrug and change the subject when hundreds of actual girls were being systematically raped, because it was politically embarrassing. The artless transparency of Labour’s faux-outrage is contemptuous. Even with their rock bottom approval ratings, they seem to think we’ll swallow this huffing….

After the murderous attack on the Heaton Park synagogue in October last year, Starmer said, ‘To every Jewish person in this country: I promise that I will do everything in my power to guarantee you the security you deserve.’

After this, we discover that West Midlands Police colluded with Islamists to ban Jewish football supporters from Britain. And also that Jewish Labour MP Damien Egan was barred from visiting Bristol’s Brunel Academy, a school in his constituency, due to ‘safeguarding’ concerns, allegedly following a campaign by staff and union activists.

I don’t know about you, but if I made such bold statements and then things like this occurred, and I did nothing about them, I would expect to shortly afterwards burst into flames.

Do Starmer and co. really want the Chinese mega-embassy? Do they want the economy to tank? Do they want to be the most detested government of all time?
