Vocal support for Braverman from blogger Connor Tomlinson - who would apply similar rules to British identity. So he wants Braverman banned from parliament with Kemi Badenoch + Rishi Sunak. (He regrets she would have to go but feels she'd self-sacrifice to get rid of them too).
You are only English if you have English heritage.
English people happen to be white.

Former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak writes in the Sunday Times, challenging those seeking to promote the idea that British identity depends primarily on ancestry, DNA ethnicity and/or faith. He also advocates a civic inclusive English identity.

Tackling racism must be a shared priority.
@LabourSatvir joined @sundersays at the British Future report launch detailing lived experiences of racial inequality across the UK.

Ahead of autumn's UK-EU summit, new @BritishFuture research finds that people see Brexit as a failure and want closer EU ties. But voters are undecided about what comes next, with uncertainty about the idea of another referendum, or a return to free movement [1/3]

The front runner being foisted on the people of Holborn by Labour to replace the former Prime Minister Keir Starmer in our Parliament was born in Somalia.
Do you understand what’s happening?

Its also incompetent of Zia Yusuf to begin Reform conference week with racist attack on an elected opponent who came as a child. This may now overshadow the opening of the conference, with a type of overtly racist attack that Farage has said Reform reject from BNP + now Restore
