The Fête of Britain

Island of Neighbours?

As the polls closed in Gorton and Denton on 26 February, a clearly knackered Zack Polanski on BBC Newsnight was asked about a campaign leaflet distributed by the Reform UK candidate Matt Goodwin claiming that “it takes more than a piece of paper to make somebody British”.

“I think we’re a country that’s not an island of strangers,” he added. “In fact, we’re an island of neighbours.”
