We do this very strange thing in UK politics, where a person of colour is almost always used to front discriminative policies. Very odd. They think a Brown face will make it more palatable. She's the Zia Yusuf but for Labour.

Still in a state of shock how little attention this story has received.
A truly chilling story. Guardian reporting that the Israeli Defence minister has asked IDF to draw up plans to move 600,000 Palestinians to a camp on the ruins of Rafah, something he calls a “humanitarian city.” Once in, they wouldn’t be allowed to leave. https://t.co/80Y9LmcKdL
