British accountability and tackling hate crime: The wish list of Sikh voters in key target Labour areas
Saturday, 15 June 2024 They may not be as numerous as Muslim voters, and there are no rebel candidates stealing them away from Labour over conflicts abroad, but Punjabis are a specific electorate with their own concerns, and some of their communities happen to be highly concentrated in key target seats for Sir Keir Starmer's party.
Children being bombed and the prospect of starvation in Gaza is “intolerable”, Sir Keir Starmer has said, after his Government launched fresh sanctions on West Bank settlers and paused trade talks with Israel.

The Prime Minister visited a Lidl in north London on Tuesday afternoon as he sought to promote the impact of his trade deal with the EU.

The new deal with the European Union strengthens the UK’s borders, Sir Keir Starmer has said in the House of Commons. The Prime Minister said the Government should be “proud” to give young people the opportunity of a “controlled youth experience scheme”, while also helping British holiday makers because they will be able to use e-gates when they travel to Europe.

U.S. President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order mandating that all truck drivers operating within the United States must demonstrate English language proficiency. The administration argues that this step is crucial to road safety, regulatory compliance, and national security. The order will require truckers to pass a language test — failure to do so may result in being placed out of service. However, Sikh advocacy groups have raised alarms, warning of potential discriminatory impacts on Sikh and other immigrant drivers. Is this a legitimate safety measure, or is it a policy wrapped in exclusion?

Prime Minister Mark Carney is under fire after celebrating Vaisakhi at a Sikh temple in Ottawa while remaining silent on Palm Sunday, which fell on the same day. Wearing a yellow turban and serving at the langar, Carney’s gesture was praised by the Sikh community—but sparked backlash online from Christian groups and conservative commentators.
Social media influencer Oli London accused the PM of “pandering” to Sikhs while ignoring Christian holidays like Palm Sunday and Passover. Critics are asking: Is this inclusive multiculturalism or selective symbolism? Meanwhile, defenders argue that events like Vaisakhi are about unity and should not be politicized.

Iranian President Pezeshkian launched a scathing attack on President Trump and the West, accusing them of hypocrisy, genocide, and double standards. Pezeshkian criticized U.S. sanctions and threats, questioned the West's moral stance on Gaza, and accused global powers of profiting from war. He urged Muslim nations to unite independently, declaring, “This region belongs to us.” His remarks respond to Trump’s renewed threats of “maximum pressure” and claims that Iran is the “most destructive force” in West Asia.

Israel faced a dramatic escalation as Yemen’s Houthi rebels launched four ballistic missile attacks within 24 hours, targeting key military sites and population centers. Among the weapons used was the "Palestine-2" hypersonic missile, which reportedly struck near Tel Aviv, triggering widespread air raid sirens and panic. Though the Israeli Defense Forces claim successful interceptions, missile debris injured civilians and landed as far as a kindergarten. The Iron Dome's effectiveness is now under scrutiny as the Houthis vow more strikes and warn Muslim nations against remaining silent. Despite U.S. airstrikes in Yemen killing hundreds of militants, the Houthi barrage continues, threatening to widen the regional conflict.
