Labour’s Deputy Leader Angela Rayner has appealed to Muslim voters by pledging that a Labour Government would officially recognise the state of Palestine. The Mailhas the story.
Video circulating online shows the party’s Deputy Leader speaking to voters in her Ashton-under-Lyne seat and thanking them for getting her “over the line” at the 2019 election.
She then admits “people are angry” about the growing humanitarian disaster in Gaza following the Israeli invasion triggers by the October 7th Hamas terrorist attack.
In the footage, believed to have been shot at an event on Sunday, Ms. Rayner tells the audience that Labour “supports” the International Criminal Court, which last week said it would seek the arrest of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu – and senior Hamas leaders – over claims of war crimes in Gaza.
She then warns them a Labour Government would have “limited” influence to change the situation, adding: “Qatar, Saudi Arabia, all of these people, we are all working to stop what’s happening at the moment, we want to see that.
“I promise you that’s what we want to see. If Labour get into power we will recognise Palestine.”
This is absolutely cringe. Angela Rayner giving in to Islamic sectarianism by solely focusing on Gaza here. Begging for their votes.
No mention on any everyday issues which affect us in the UK. Pathetic.
Labour faces a major backlash from its Muslim voters over the party’s stance on Gaza. Sir Keir Starmer initially refused to back calls for a permanent ceasefire saying Israel had a right to defend itself.
The stance was blamed in part for Labour losing the Rochdale by-election to George Galloway earlier this year.
Meanwhile, Ms. Rayner faced pushback from television presenter and Reform U.K. President Nigel Farage, as he sounded the alarm about inner cities and towns moving into an era of “sectarian politics with women completely excluded”.
Mr. Farage was launching Howard Cox as the party’s Dover candidate this morning – having refused to stand for a seat himself.
In a tough speech, he claimed Rishi Sunak called an early election on July 4th because he knew his plan to deport Channel migrants to Rwanda would not work.
He also doubled down on his attack on British Muslims, despite criticism from the Tories and other politicians over using the term “invasion” to describe the situation facing Britain.
Complaining that Channel migrants had access to services like housing and dentistry before locals, Mr. Farage said: “Frankly, I think this is very dangerous. You only have to look at what has happened in Sweden, in cities like Malmo, to see that a large influx of young males coming from an entirely different culture – and certainly coming from a culture in which woman are not even regarded as second-class citizens – has had frankly disastrous social effects.”

Looks and sounds like the German ptb should be dusting off the old ww2 ss uniforms for their next party convention!
Small black clip on moustaches available at the door!
More like the old Communists of the DDR. People remember them in the Eastern Lande,and that is part of the reason they vote for the ‘Faaaar Right’ AfD.
“Rational” ——-Do you think covering a beautiful country in 40,000 huge industrial turbines and hoping to soon have 55,000 of them is the work of rational human beings?
Do you mean having all those turbines is rational because they make money for people or do you agree with me it is irrational to cover a country in this clutter?
I mean that the people operating the turbines have a perfectly rational interest in the money they’re getting because of this. That they must be built is demanded by a law which came into force under Merkel and as all mainstream parties agree with the climate change agenda, ordinary people don’t have any input into this process. All they can do to express their opposition to it is vote for a party opposed to it. The largest of these is the AfD and not even the AfD stands a realistic chance to influence actual government decisions for the forseeable future.
As one of the people in the climate movie put it: Climate change hoax is a bad term. It should really be called a scam. And scams work because the victims can’t help it.
If only there was an EU wide election in June where those opposed to the Nut zero nonsense could vote for Parties opposing Nut zero. Even the EU could not ignore a 70% plus anti vote which was enough to see off Varadkhar.
There can be no question that the only sane action wrt the ECHR is to leave the Council of Europe or – even better – disestablish it altogether. Assuming the climate change CO₂ narrative was true, there’s absolutely nothing the government of Switzerland could do to improve the global situation in this respect short of declaring war on China, India and the USA and invading all three countries with armed forces in order to make them cut their CO₂ emissions and the chances of success wouldn’t exactly be great. This means the court ruling is outright disingenious.
And in doing so create even more C02, maybe even unclear, but don’t worry about any of that.

We need more electromobility! We need more expansions to the electric vehicle charging networks!
Neither of which will reduce CO2 output if the electricity is generated with gas or coal. Fortunately Germany’s neighbour, France, is happy for now to sell excess nuclear generated electricity to idiots who trashed their own nuclear power capability. However, when the EU rules about EVs start to bite in France they won’t have spare electricity to sell – which will royally screw up Germany meeting it’s Climate Protection Act requirements.
You can live in cloud cuckoo land. You can pretend you are In Alice in Wonderland. You can Follow the Yellow Brick Road, but in the end there is only one world you are going to have to live in ——-The REAL ONE. ——-Reality has this very nasty habit of giving you a proverbial uppercut and knocking some sense into you. For all of these phony planet savers, Mike Tyson is winding up the big uppercut for you, and the sooner the better so we can get back to living in the real world.

And the circus rolls on, as the sun weakens and we fall into 30 years of endless winters here in Northern Europe. I guess that’ll solve the immigration crisis. They’ll all be clambering back into their boats as the frostbite sets in.

The Germans just aren’t world class at fudging things like us here in the UK. They are too rational.
We on the other hand are world leaders at proclaiming two opposing things and carrying on quite happily. We are pragmatists.
Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
“Rational” ——-Do you think covering a beautiful country in 40,000 huge industrial turbines and hoping to soon have 55,000 of them is the work of rational human beings?
Absolutely. A lot of money is made in this way.

I think there is a not insignificant correlation between rationalism and disregard for aesthetic beauty.
Perfidious Albion.

Are you sure?
The Irish simply got confused and put the cross on the wrong box. It is an easy mistake to make.
They are Irish!
I had my doubts as I was typing my original message!

The 2,000 Swiss witches and the recently formulated new law on climate management passed by the ECHR.

This is what happens when Ideology trumps common sense. But the pretend to save the planet house will all come tumbling down

Jawohl mein führer.
King Canute has left the building.
I do hope he is correct in his final paragraph, but there is a lot of pain to come before then.
Log burners in Scotland, anyone?
