#OrgClassifPPUKLabourTonyBlair #OrgClassifPPUKLabourKeirStarmer via #WebsiteWorldNewsNetworkWN #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianHeatherStewart "The former prime minister suggests they are social conservatives, and thus urges Labour to ensure it is on the centre ground on 'culture war' issues such as transgender rights. Blair says the party should 'plant Labour's feet clearly near the centre of gravity of the British people, who want fair treatment for all and an end to prejudice, but distrust and dislike the 'cancel culture', 'woke' mentality.'" https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/may/13/tony-blair-tells-keir-starmer-to-drop-woke-politics-and-focus-on-economy-labour #OtheringCaricatureBrexitRemainer #OrgUKTonyBlairInstituteForGlobalChange #CatchcryCancelCulture #OtheringDenialPrejudice

Context this tweet is in response to criticism of #OrgClassifPPUKConservativeParty' #ToponymAfricaEastRwanda #PhenomnImmigration plan i.e. it's a #ReasoningFallacyWhataboutism
Supplementary #WebsiteTheConversationBenjaminCurtis "In philosophy, an argument is a reasoned debate aimed at truth. But in many other contexts, people often do not view arguments in this way. They view them, rather, as battles to be won. Their goal is to get their opponent to concede as much as possible without their conceding anything themselves. Viewed in this way, whataboutism is an effective strategy. It works on the principle that offence is the best form of defence. By launching a counter-attack, you place your opponent on the back foot." https://theconversation.com/whataboutism-what-it-is-and-why-its-such-a-popular-tactic-in-arguments-182911 #MetaphorWarfareCounterattack

Addendum this appears to be an 'attack ad' - part of a #PhenomnSmearCampaign / negative campaigning designed to dissuade potential voters from voting UK Labour in the lead-up to the May 2022 local elections [Wikipedia] Through reflecting on the focus of issues listed here (and its general tone), it's clear that it's targeting social conservative interests / worldview.

tweet responding to #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianWilliamKeegan https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/apr/04/the-brexit-elite-cannot-hope-to-fool-us-for-much-longer which characterises those who voted for #PhenomnBrexit in 2016 as being conned. The tweeter responds with a #OtheringCaricatureBrexitRemoron, which is a variation of the more familiar #OtheringCaricatureBrexitRemainer
#PoliticsNationalismBritishLion versus #OrgEU cat? as variation on the familiar #MetaphorVersusSheepLions i.e. overt #PoliticsNationalismBritish Note, 'English' and not 'British' as the Scots and Welsh tend to revere their own national symbol in preference for the Lion i.e. the Scottish 'thistle', the Welsh red dragon, leek and daffodil. Because Northern Ireland was only partitioned in the 20th Century, their national symbols tend to be those derived from their shared history [Wikipedia]

@CyrilGeorge [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [164]: For the #woke folk, #Remainers & open immigration advocates like @Angelmerke & @UKLabour. Some people of differing ethnic origins integrate, value British customs, traditions, history and culture. Do not ignore them withyour #agitprop. @spikedonline @HJS_Org @NickFerrariLBC [URL redacted]
"BREXITERS are NOT xenophobes or racists but have constantly to fend off assertions by bitter Remainers. Our raison d'être is to be able to rule ourselves, our fishing grounds and our democracy with representatives who can easily be booted out. The EU project is staffed by unelecteds, is unaudited and is a bureaucratic nightmare of 28 nations with almost as many languages, controlled from within the Twin Towers of Brussels and Strasbourg. We reject open immigration and the influx of a culture so alien and destructive to our own. Skilled guys a credit to their origins and our great And sovereign country AND KEEPING US ALIVE!! Juxtaposed ONLY because a point was being made Unwanted MUSLIM GANG SENTENCED TO 169 YEARS FOR RAPING A 12 YEAR OLD VULNERABLE ENGLISH SCHOOLGIRL IN HALIFAX A disgrace to their origins and their faith, Yabki Allah يبكي الله" #OtheringCaricatureBrexitBrexiteer #OtheringHateXenophobia #OtheringDiscriminationRacism #OtheringCaricatureBrexitRemainer #CatchcryFreedomAutonomy #LiteralFoodProductionFishing #MetaphorVersusUsThem #OrgEU #MetaphorDemocracySovereign #PoliticsBureaucracy #PoliticsTechnocracy #ToponymEuropeBelgiumVlaamsGewestBrussels #ToponymEuropeFranceStrasbourg #PhenomnImmigration #OtheringHateIslamophobiaAntiMuslim ? #ConspiracyTheory_CabalGroomingGang #ToponymEuropeUKEnglandYorkshireWestHalifax #PoliticsNationalismBritish
Supplementary i.e. British appropriation of US #OtheringCaricatureSlaveryBrute ?
Addendum presumably intended to create outrage through evoking a #MetaphorPurityRacialWhiteWomenAndBlackMen narrative. #PhenomnCulturalFormPhotographyMugshot
The "our great And sovereign country" characterisation (and #PhenomnPolarisation #MetaphorVersusSideBySideDiptych ) reminds me of #CaricaturistTomGauld's #2015_OurBlessedHomeland [tweet]
