To be clear: there is nothing wrong with flying the Union Jack or St George’s cross.
But when convicted criminals, Britain First and Tommy Robinson’s allies are the organisers, we should all question what this wave of activism is really about.

press reporting that Starmer is to appoint ex Sun editor David Dinsmore as his new permanent comms secretary. He has a conviction for doxxing the teenage victim of sexual abuse by a famous footballer. For most people this would be a new low but here it depends on exactly what Mandelson's role was

Look, this Labour government is against burglary, but arresting burglars is out of the question, and now is not the time to stop supplying burglars with burglary equipment. We must also continue to buy stolen goods from the burglars. And anyone who tries to stop a burglary will be deemed a terrorist
Peter Kyle: "I don't want anybody who is viewing this to underestimate our anxiety about what is happening in Gaza"
Will you impose sanctions on Israel? No
End all trade? No
Halt all arms exports? No
Stop all military assistance? No
Tell us again how anxious you are.

1. One thing you need to realise about the British Establishment is that it uses clowns to express its deepest desires. People like Rod Liddle offer a kind of deniability - "lighten up, he's just having a laugh". But they deliver a closer representation of its truths than any sober editorial.
Meanwhile
The Spectator is condoning the bombing of Brighton and Glastonbury
I'm sure it will be a proscribed organisation any minute now...
