It’s noticeable Labour are opting for “thuggish” as the descriptor for the rioters. I get it speaks to law and order. But the issue isn’t that they’re thugs - it’s that they’re racists. This is not general mindless violence. It is targeted attacks on Muslims and asylum seekers.

Britain’s delay in banning arms sales to Israel for at least several months - while Labour find a way to claim they are banning arms sales while doing no such thing - will result in thousands more deaths of innocent civilians
The Times reports that the UK will delay a decision about banning arms sales to Israel by several months:
