Plus: Scroll to the end for a story about the mysterious arsonist of north London — and why parliament is talking about the capital's dubious Harry Potter shops.
As you said in twitter, the far right campaign in London that consists to go against London is really really weird. As if their London message is aimed to everywhere but London actually.
If you've not seen it, may I recommend Martin Sheen's turn as President Bartlett in The West Wing. Worth memorizing the verses used by the President should you need to excoriate one of these ’Christian Principles' bigots in real life. I've only used it once, but it worked marvelously at a recent PTA meeting where the idea of banning anything to do with 'pride' from a school library was drafted. If Hannibal can crib Horace, stealing from Sorkin should be allowed for hoi polloi.
(you'll find it on YouTube with 'West Wing Bible' scene').
Fairly convinced all of Susan Hall’s lines are written by ChatGPT as they sound like they make sense but anybody with any real understanding of what London is like would realise they don’t resonate with anyone. In fact I’m not even sure if she’s real.
The way these people confuse metaphors is enough to make them repulsive (and fail an English assignment), without getting into the substance of whatever abhorrent ideas they're trying to communicate. That Restore Britain thinks the cure for cancer is committing a war crime tells you everything you need to know about them.
