Glasman is a serious threat to the UK. He shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near government or mainstream politics.

He’s in control

At this point, you can only assume that Glasman's Blue Labour are trying to sabotage the Labour Party in order to bring about a Reform victory for Trump and the far-right. It sounds crazy. But Glasman is a Bannon friend and the only Labour politician invited to Trump's inauguration.
Some info on the founder of Blue Labour.
💥2011: called for a dialogue with supporters of the English Defence League (EDL).
💥2011: called for some immigration to be halted and for EU freedom of movement to be abolished.
💥2016: campaigned to leave the EU.
💥2024: celebrated the victory of Donald Trump.

The “Blue Labour” ideologue Maurice Glasman is behind the government’s direction.
:: State intervention in key industries.
:: Hardline anti-immigration
:: Virulently anti-“Woke”
:: Sympathetic to far-right figures
:: Weekly calls with US extremist Steve Bannon
He is an echo of the past.

Starmer should refuse to make or take calls from Trump unless he drops his threat against the BBC.

It looks like they are entirely focussed on Reform voters, and believe no-one else matters.
