Ah yes, Starmer and Mahmood showing they're taking the rise in antisemitism very seriously by... checks notes... conflating Israel with Jewish people at every possible opportunity, while pro-Israel lobby groups are allowed to pressure politicians, hospitals, venues, festivals and basically anyone who looks at a watermelon too fondly.
"Oh, you like that watermelon, do ya?"
Natasha Hausdorff's head rises from behind the kiwis, handing you a threatening email.
"We'll see about that."
Oh yes, and now barring people like Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the country to speak, because apparently criticising a foreign, far-right government is a threat to public order. Not the people who have spent years pushing fallacy and misinformation until useful idiots started trying to burn down "asylum hotels". That's just a press conference where Starmer shakes his head disapprovingly, with no self-awareness that the country, left and right, hates him down to his bones.
That'll do it, guys! Our hero has spoken! War is over! Nothing to see here!
Nothing defeats antisemitic conspiracy theories like the government spending two years acting like criticism of Israel during a genocide is automatically antisemitism, then adopting the same bad-faith logic used to silence criticism of Israel in the first place. That makes total sense.
I think that makes for a really, really healthy situation that is definitely not going to inflame tensions even more. What leaders. Inspirational. Brave. Not at all fucking transparent.
Great job. Entirely normal country. Definitely not a brazen display of cowardice from a government willing to torch the Labour Party's moral credibility just to appease a genocidal state and keep nodding along to the United States like a little bitch.
Totally normal. No notes.
