One of Labour's biggest failures to date is arresting PEACEFUL protestors, protesting against a genocide being committed by zionist Israel.
I'm not surprised at Starmer's choice, after all, he and his family are zionists believing that Palestine shouldn't exist.
Disgusting failure of resources!!.

Bossy headline from The Times letting Farage insist his “Hitler was right” racism was just ‘banter’.
If that were true, his politics now would be different and he’d apologise. He’s defensive because this is what he is and always has been and he’s angry with us for knowing that and for minding.
