A prominent South African Jewish journalist living in Israel has also drawn parallels with the former regime in his home country. Benjamin Pogrund, 87, who reported on events under apartheid for most of his career, previously held the view that applying the term to Israel was “at best ignorant and naive and at worst cynical and manipulative”. But in an interview last week, he said annexation would mean “Israeli overlords in an occupied area, and the people over whom they will be ruling will not have basic rights. That will be apartheid, and we will merit the charge”.

Recent conversations with our fellow working poor have confirmed suspicions. Mostly self employed working single mums , they have received a lump sum payment only to now find that their working tax credits have been slashed by about half going forward. Furthermore they have been conveniently put on universal credit due to the 'change in circumstances 'so the mad fool who was trying to save up for a house deposit will get absolutely nothing due to having more than 16 k in savings.
Meanwhile many very comfy types living in 3/4/500k assets, with savings have been kept sweet.
I can't see this being too prominent on Starmer's radar either so business as usual then. [Post edited 14 Jun 23:44]
