RAMZY BAROUD on how Israel’s narrative collides with military failure
AFTER a set of elections in which the Labour leadership’s campaign was almost all about immigration and asylum, it has decided to “go further and faster” in the same direction. We know that the outcomes of the May 1 elections were disastrous for Labour, and unfortunately, we can confidently predict further disasters lie ahead for as long as this line is maintained.
It should be clear that to defeat Reform UK, we need to set out a clear alternative that delivers for working people and the poor, that promotes equality, not division, and supports peace over genocide and endless war.
It used to be claimed, falsely, that “we never speak about immigration,” when it seemed to some of us that we talk about little else. But now, no-one can claim that to be the case and the talk is all in terms set by the anti-migrants. Labour’s leaders not only fail to challenge this, but they are also key participants.
