An interesting stunt just unveiled by Labour in south London – seemingly portraying Rishi Sunak as a British Asian corner shop keeper – selling ‘Rishi’s Mega Mortgages’. Guido always loves a good election stunt and it’s all a bit of fun from Labour…
Though some eyebrows are being raised over the choice of depiction – which does seem to have a whiff of the dog whistle about it. Remember the backlash when Keir Starmer said Sunak ‘doesn’t get Britain’…
Speaking to Adam Boulton on Times Radio about kicking the Golders Green suspect, Heidi Alexander said:
“I thought that if I was in the shoes of that police officer, then if I’m honest, given the situation, and the fact that he had a backpack on his back, and they were worried about whether that might go off, I could, if I was a police officer, frankly, I could see myself having taken similar action.”
