The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right.

When we launched this campaign, we said we wanted to knock on one million doors across the five boroughs by the June primary.
Some people laughed. You got to work. We hit 1.6 million.

We just passed three.

a key reason they see an opening for such a blatant speech crackdown is that they already did one to Palestinian and anti-genocide activists and it got enthusiastic bipartisan approval
