Labour doesn't know who it's fighting anymore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It was this time last year at Labour Party conference when a stressed Labour MP, muttering grimly about his party’s future, told me something that stuck with me. “Trust me, our biggest threat is still the Tories,” he said. “The worst-case scenario for us is if they regain their economic credibility.” It was a rare perspective, at a time when Reform was reaching 35 per cent in polls and general election modelling suggested it would win 370-odd seats and reduce Labour constituencies to the double
Danny Tommo’s battle for the Channel (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Westminster’s attention was pulled across the Atlantic, shocking scenes unfolded in the Channel on the night of Andy Burnham’s trip to the UN. Daniel Thomas, aka Danny Tommo – the Tommy Robinson associate whose balaclava-clad anti-migrant Patriot Platform disrupted Dover port earlier this month – appeared in video footage to slash a dinghy with a knife while there was still a French rescue worker onboard.

This is a place where crime means hare-coursing, and where 10mph speed limits are set by the British Horse Society. The parish church door remains closed, not in anticipation of antisocial behaviour or rough sleepers, but to “keep wildlife out”. The most popular pint at its only pub is Mast

Read excerpt
When Mo, an English teacher from Iran, spent a year and a half staying at the Thistle City Barbican hotel in 2023, he noticed that there was “always someone filming outside”. Now 29, Mo rents his own flat and works in admin at a chapel. He recalls that whenever he or his fellow asylum seekers left the hotel, they would be met with at least one man with a camera. I have seen these men myself, often holding selfie sticks and live streaming themselves from their smartphones, outside asylum accommod
