This is precisely the kind of thing that a future government to the right of Labour would build on precedent and do with even more ferocity.
It also is right now absolutely discrediting Labour (even more) to its own supposed constituency.
This way Labour stupidity is guaranteeing a future government to its right.
Goddamn centrists man.
Various other UK sources I’ve seen have quoted 500 to 900.It’s at the higher end of mainstream reporting but certainly not obviously wrong.EDIT actually I was out of date, above is on the money
BBC 890 https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8rvly00440o
Guardian

Tankies in full force here in this thread?
So, for someone like you — with your existence‘s sole focus on posting only explicit anti-China or anti-Russia content, and often of questionable quality — what exactly do you mean, when you call someone a ‚tankie‘? Where in this post is that full force and what did this force do? Do you only use the word as a smear against unaligned voices or critics? How do you describe your role in this community — western propagandist? Or is that too upfront?
The ‘Middle East Eye’ is a very questionable news source (that is banned even in some Middle East countries) with obscure ownership and a very selective approach in its topics and content. It may not be wrong to post articles by them once in a while, but OP is posting almost exclusively form this highly biased source.
“Let’s criticize something irrelevant to the topic at hand as to discredit OP in some way.”
How about you comment about how this particular piece is misinformation or has some sort of agenda, how it’s leaving out facts, misrepresenting them or similar?
Even the Media Bias Fact Checking considers Middle East Eye “high credibility”, despite the MBFC having a pro US pro Israel bias.
This also isnt even an opinion piece. Its literally just a 1:1 rundown of things that happened, probably half copied from police reports.
The Media Bias Fact Checking is only one source. It does not mean they are always right, of course. You post almost all your articles from one source, and all convey the same narrative.
I’d be happy for you to provide sources for your claim then.
What claim? The Media Bias Fact Checking is only one source of information and you post the majority of article from a single source, and the vast majority of you 20 or so posts are form the Middle East Eye.
You’ll find information about this media outlet across the web, they even have a Wikipedia page. They don’t disclose their ownership and it’s unclear where the funding comes from.
Why don’t you find some information on the web and then present your case?
What do you even want? You’re just bitching about the source, not even that its wrong. You haven’t said anything.
What about this article did you find questionable exactly?
