Sky News contributor Calista Clements discusses Restore Britain Leader Rupert Lowe’s report into the UK grooming gangs and calls out the left’s lack of focus on the topic. “It’s suicidal empathy and it’s this prioritisation of being so concerned or protecting race or culture at all costs,” Ms Clements told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. “The only conversation we are having about that on the left, I should say … is, so it all comes back down to race. Is this not worth giving even the slightest bit of attention or credibility to, but again they just won’t have these conversations.”

‘Catastrophic’: White working-class kids in UK failed by education system

Spiked Online Chief Political Reporter Brendan O’Neill weighs in on a recent inquiry which found white working-class children are falling behind in the UK school system. “It’s catastrophic, I mean, white working-class boys in particular have been falling behind for so long in education, they’re doing worse than almost any other group,” Mr O’Neill told Sky News host Jaimee Rogers. “They’ve been left behind, they’ve been discarded, and I think this is the end result of the politics of identity. “It’s really horrible what’s happened to these kids … you are taught to hate yourself, you’re taught to hate your country.”

How the right is rising across Britain

Britain’s tilt to the right is being felt on its streets and in its politics. From Reform UK’s surge in local elections to far-right rallies that draw tens of thousands of people, once fringe voices seem to be moving into the mainstream. While these movements vary in size and ideology, many are tapping into genuine frustrations over the economy and immigration. CNN's Jomana Karadsheh spent the past few months looking at how this small but vocal minority has grown louder and more visible, and how it’s even finding inspiration in the MAGA movement.
