Keir Starmer has finally said something true. Standing before a hall of Muslim MPs and community leaders at this year’s Westminster Big Iftar, the prime minister called British Muslims “the face of modern Britain” and “a success story when it comes to diversity.”
Whether that is a thing to celebrate or to mourn depends entirely on what one believes Britain is for. Starmer plainly believes it is for managing demographics, soothing constituencies, and above all narrating a “deeper story” that, in his words, will “drown out the voices that seek to divide us.”
