Global Pro-Palestine Protests, Socialist Party Organization
Reports from TRT and France 24 detail massive pro-Palestine protests across Europe and Washington D.C. The hosts observe that many of these events are organized by the Socialist Workers Party and note the rising tension in the UK as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak criticizes planned marches on Armistice Day.
Scottish politician Ian Blackford criticized Prime Minister Rishi Sunak for reappointing a Home Secretary who had recently resigned for a code breach. The appointment is characterized by opponents as a "sleazy backroom deal" to shore up Sunak's political position within the Conservative Party.
UK Asylum Policy, English Channel Migrant Crossings
UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman proposed a new bill to ban illegal migrants who cross the English Channel from claiming asylum. The government is facing pressure as over 33,000 people have made the crossing in small boats this year, costing taxpayers £5 million a day for hotel accommodations. The plan includes deporting illegal arrivals to Rwanda to deter further crossings.
