Shouldn't police resources be deployed in response to potential threat rather than to try and appease? By all accounts, the pro-Palestinian protests in London were over-policed (largely at the behest of the government) and despite millions turning up only a handful of arrests were made. Compare...

Neither James O’Brien or Nick Ferrari are career journalists, both started in journalism (JOB a gossip columnist and Ferrari a show business reporter), their careers have been in broadcasting.

The analogy with Lineker related to his position as a presenter in general, not the interview with his wife.

Representatives of a Mosque near where the Birmingham pub was targeted have visited, apologised and offered to pay for the damages. There are more good people than bad people.

Balls presents a current affairs show, I think his background is relevant...he also has a profile, ITV is a commercial organisation so their choice of presenters will in part be determined by commercial interests. I think it was a mistake for him to interview his wife editorially, I can bet it...

Have you only had one job all your life? Every TV presenter did something different before they became a TV presenter…and being a politician is not a trade.

Well he clearly is a presenter given that he presents a TV programme in the same way Gary Lineker is a presenter.

Somebody who is always right is not ordinary, they are extraordinary.

I guess that depends on how you define “leftist”, but as someone who spent some time as a young adult active in far left politics I can assure you that hatred and bigotry was alive and well and nothing much has changed.

Thay doesn't mean you are right. Believing what you see with your eyes but ignoring the bit between your ears is what has got us into this mess.

And I can't tolerate racists, must be my blind spot.

You should have gone to Specsavers.

The "video evidence" you refer to has been widely circulated and is presented with a specific narrative in mind. The two tier accusation predominately relates to how the police have handled the pro-palestine marches compared to how they have handled the "patriots". The pro-Palestine marches...

No it can't.

Which would be a valid point if it wasn’t bollocks.

You are absolutely right, I apologise. However, nearly half of it is due to decisions of this government and although I agree with the decisions they’ve made…they are decisions they own.

It should have been in the manifesto. The IFS were warning of a £20 billion black hole months ago saying that neither party were being honest with the electorate. In March, the IFS reported that unprotected departments could face day to day cuts of up to £20 billion and the OBR admitted at the...
