Backing a ceasefire of any description is in my view promoting masochism, when the remnants of Hamas are all located in Rafah why on earth would you be expected not to finish what you’ve started.
But that’s neither here nor there, this is a good thing for Labour. It means they can win a national election without being dependent on the support of deeply illiberal people who are collectively given their opinion by horrible community leaders who believe they can bully people into getting what they want. And to that end they’ve been right, idiot liberals in their respect for diversity and inclusion have turned their back on everything they ever claimed to stand for.
Starmer is too cowardly to properly take advantage of this, in the same way he’s been spineless on gender woo. But a clever and forward thinking Labour leader would use this to promote voices of moderate, reformist Muslims who have come here to integrate and who want their community to break free from the shackles of barbarism and totalitarian ideology
The opportunity is there, it just needs someone with the courage to push for it
