No more should be allowed and rules need to be much tighter on current ones.

#Starmer is certainly guilty of one of the following:

⚽️Gross ignorance.

⚽️Taking bad advice.

⚽️Kowtowing to The Labour Fiends of Israel.

Politics has no place in sport, isn’t that what “they” always claim?

Why is the PM involving himself in a local policing issue?

It’s purely a policing issue designed to protect British residents from well-known hooligans who have been banned elsewhere in Europe.

This is wild. The PM is putting Israeli hooligans before Brits’ safety and the law.

And it’s nothing to do with Antisemitism. The fans ran riot in Amsterdam and caused all sorts of problems and violence when they played against Ajax. Why would we want them in England?

The British voted for Brexit because of immigration.

But now, they want to turn back the clock in favor of the pre-2021 border system.

Plaid Cymru @plaidcymru.bsky.social · 6d

Keir Starmer won’t even go to campaign in Caerphilly.

He knows that Labour has let the people of Wales down.

Plaid Cymru is the only party that will fight for our communities and ensure that nobody is left behind.

⚠️Folk better stop laughing this off. A Reform-run No10 means ripped-up workers’ rights, climate denial baked into policy, migrants and minorities used as target practice, & the NHS carved up for profit. Farage is a millionaire dressed up as “One of the lads, ”It’ll be the people already struggling.
