I think it should be a source of deep embarrassment – and perhaps even shame – that Rishi Sunak has spoken out on this before Andy Burnham has.
Former PM Rishi Sunak in the Sunday Times challenges the rise of ethno-nationalism in British politics, as an argument within the right about Britishness being about ancestry, DNA and ethnicity

Konstantin Stanislavski‘s original conception of method acting was "when the character you’re playing is sad because his wife died think of a moment when you also felt sad" and now it’s "to play Jack the Ripper I too must murder half a dozen prostitutes and send menacing letters to the police"
Jeremy Strong went full method while filming ‘THE SOCIAL RECKONING,’ speaking only as Mark Zuckerberg throughout production.
He also emailed Zuckerberg, saying he took the “responsibility very seriously” and the “veracity” of it seriously.

I'm glad Heath is doing this (and persisting in doing so).
But as with Fraser Nelson I wish he'd take some responsibility for creating a world in which most of his readers in the comments are backing Lowe.

Allister Heath in the Telegraph argues that the foundation of Restore's politics is a "Groyperification" into rabid conspiratorial populism that rejects ethnic & faith minorities being equally British.

Quite impressive to completely undermine your own defence and insult most of your party's elected officials in the same sentence.
It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.

This headline is a travesty. It's not a protest and it's got nothing to do with Henry Nowak. It's a racist riot. Call it that.

The quid pro quo of a Starmer leadership was that - fine - we weren't getting a storyteller or a charisma powerhouse, but we'd at least get serious, competent leadership committed to delivery. In fact we got neither.
