QUE OPINAIS DEL BREXIT? Me piro a Londres (bye bye Oslo)

Es curioso que los laboristas tendrían el 80% de los escaños aunque presentaran como candidato los restos de la lechuga que ha sobrevivido a Liz Truss y que el principal partido de la oposición serían los indepes escoceses.

A ver cómo aguantan y con quien.

En absoluto, creo yo.

El discurso tory cala muchísimo en Inglaterra, en especial entre cierta generación.

Digo Inglaterra, sí.

Telegraph quickly deletes pro-Boris Johnson article after he quits Tory race
Paper published Nadhim Zahawi article online just as news came through of Johnson’s withdrawal

At 9pm on Sunday, the Daily Telegraph published online a glowing endorsement of Boris Johnson by the former chancellor Nadhim Zahawi. Headlined “Get ready for Boris 2.0, the man who will make the Tories and Britain great again”, the piece set out a case for why the former prime minister would imminently return triumphant to Downing Street.

Unfortunately for Zahawi, his piece was published at the exact moment that Johnson told reporters he was dropping out of the leadership contest. Within minutes, the Telegraph had made the unusual decision to wipe Zahawi’s article from the internet without following the standard journalistic practice of offering an explanation or leaving an editor’s note.

Telegraph journalists have privately mocked the decision, suggesting it was an attempt to spare the blushes of a senior Conservative politician – only for it to rapidly backfire as archived copies circulated online.

A Telegraph Media Group spokesperson said of the deletion: “As a digital first publisher we respond quickly to major news events and update our content as quickly as possible.”

Because while Boris Johnson’s dash back from a family holiday in the Dominican Republic created confusion among his loyal supporters in the Conservative parliamentary party, it created even more confusion among his loyal supporters at certain British newspapers.

Over the weekend, several friendly outlets were lukewarm on the prospect of Johnson taking a second tilt at becoming prime minister. The Telegraph, Johnson’s former employer, prominently promoted an opinion piece by Charles Moore that declared that “true Boris fans will have the courage to tell him to sit this one out”.

The Daily Mail, which had remained loyal to the king over the water in the Caribbean, ran the front-page headline “Could Boris and Rishi now unite to save Tories?” next to an editorial urging Johnson and Rishi Sunak to put their egos aside.

The Mail and the Telegraph have had their fingers burned by enthusiastic backing for Liz Truss and her financial policies, only to watch as the candidate they pushed into Downing Street imploded on contact with economic reality.

When Johnson eventually did decide to stand aside on Sunday night, it was just in time for a rapid rewriting of newspaper editorials. The Mail described his decision to exit the contest as “a remarkable gesture of magnanimity from a remarkable politician – perhaps the most brilliant of his generation”.

In a glowing editorial it praised Johnson, suggesting it was in his gift to choose whether he wanted to be prime minister. “With his formidable campaigning skills, optimism and vision, and ability to woo parts of the electorate that had never voted Tory before – to great success in the Red Wall – who would have bet against him? But for the good of the party and the nation, he set his dream aside. This was a gesture of wisdom and statesmanship. By withdrawing from the race, he has spared his party a bloody and fatal civil war.”

It said his generosity “stands in stark contrast with the petulance of some of Rishi’s supporters, who undermined Liz Truss out of spite”.

Paul Dacre, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Mail’s parent company, dmg media, is still hoping to be made a Conservative life peer as part of Johnson’s resignation honours.

Although print newspaper circulations continue to fall, the coverage in friendly papers still tends to frame internal Tory party disputes – and therefore shape how the country is run.

In terms of political influence, one rightwing newspaper group has possibly come out of the recent turmoil with more leverage. Rupert Murdoch’s News UK was sceptical about Truss from the start, with the Times endorsing Sunak for leader this summer, and it described Johnson’s decision to drop out of the latest contest as a “huge relief”.

As a result, Murdoch’s outlets can lay claim to being closest to Sunakism – whatever that may mean – and could hope for a close relationship with No 10 if he becomes prime minister.

UK minister criticised over call for gay World Cup fans to show respect in Qatar
James Cleverly says ‘flex and compromise’ needed on both sides in country that criminalises homosexuality

The UK foreign secretary, James Cleverly, has been criticised for telling gay football fans they should show respect to Qatar, which criminalises their sexuality, when attending the World Cup in the emirate.

Cleverly said Qatar was willing to make compromises to allow people it would normally persecute to attend the tournament, which kicks off on 20 November. On Tuesday the prominent British LGBTQ campaigner Peter Tatchell claimed he had been arrested in Qatar for highlighting the country’s stance.

Cleverly said: “I have spoken to the Qatari authorities in the past about gay football fans going to watch the World Cup and how they will treat our fans and international fans. They want to make sure that football fans are safe, secure and enjoy themselves. And they know that that means they are going to have to make some compromises in terms of what is an Islamic country with a very different set of cultural norms to our own.

“One of the things I would say for football fans is, you know, please do be respectful of the host nation. They are trying to ensure that people can be themselves and enjoy the football, and I think with a little bit of flex and compromise at both ends, it can be a safe, secure and exciting World Cup.”

The shadow digital, culture, media and sport secretary, Lucy Powell, called Cleverly’s comments “shockingly tone-deaf”.

She said: “Sport should be open to all. Many fans will feel they can’t attend this tournament to cheer on their team because of Qatar’s record on human rights, workers and LGBT+ rights. The government should be challenging Fifa on how they’ve put fans in this position, and ensuring the full safety of all fans attending, not defending discriminatory values.”

Cleverly said he had not spoken with the Qatari government about the case of Tatchell, who was stopped in the Qatari capital, Doha, on Tuesday while staging a protest over LGBTQ rights. Cleverly told LBC radio he understood that the campaigner had been questioned and was being supported by the Foreign Office’s consular team.

He said he would attend the World Cup if his diary allowed, and he criticised the Labour leader, Keir Starmer, for saying he would refuse to do so because of Qatar’s record on homosexuality and other human rights issues. The Labour Welsh first minister, Mark Drakeford, reportedly does plan to attend the tournament.

Tatchell hit back at Cleverly, claiming that attending the tournament would amount to “colluding with a homophobic, sexist and racist regime”. He said: “The UK government must use its public voice to condemn the appalling human rights abuses carried out daily by the Qatari regime.

“Unless we all speak out, Qatar will have achieved its goal of sportswashing its appalling reputation during the World Cup. Cleverly has an opportunity to highlight the abuses being carried out by the regime. All fans, not just LGBTs, should boycott the World Cup and use their social media to amplify the shocking human rights abuses by the Qatari state.”

The Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran said: “The World Cup should be a celebration of the beautiful game; instead it’s being used by countries like Qatar to sportwash their atrocious human rights records. Any UK officials who attend should be using their position to highlight human rights abuses, not endorsing the regime.”
