Ticket prices are breathtaking. But I grew up in a time when artists made money from albums and toured to promote the release. I saw Iron Maiden (Powerslave) for what converts to 10 Pounds a lifetime ago.

IMO it is the wrong strategy: the platforms should be held to account – or shut down – to function safely for the audiences they target. I think a ban is like keeping kids under house arrest instead of having traffic rules. In other words: the platforms are the problem to be addressed.

Semantically it seems more accurate, Islamophobia = Fear of the faith (Islam); Anti-Muslim hate = hatred for a group of people defined as Muslims. As it is not fear but hate and is directed against people not an abstract construct, the term is the better description.

David Cameron (2014–16): tough immigration messaging during weakening authority, largely symbolic or rhetorical.

I watched some of the debate, Ms Mahmood seemed uncomfortable on a personal level, which was contrasted by her professional ambition. The accusations seem to get to her judging by the undue aggressiveness she put into her answers to other parties and almost arrogance towards different Labour views.

I just don't get the fact that politicians are pandering to the about 30% right wing voters, who will not vote for them anyway and leave the other 70% more or less bewildered. Immigration is a problem blown way out of proportion while racism is being underreported.
