Sajid Javid has warned the country risks “being torn apart by our differences” as figures from across public life launch a project that asks what it means to be British. The Independent Commission on Community and Cohesion, co-chaired by the former Conservative chancellor as well as the former Labour party policy chief Jon Cruddas, is urging the public to share their personal vision of their community and their country in the National Conversation project.
Ugh, Jon Cruddas, anything with him attached is doomed to fail! Who else is in this project?
The commission includes the human rights and counter-extremism activist Sara Khan, the former West Midlands mayor Andy Street, Laura Marks, the chair of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, the former Green party leader Caroline Lucas, and the activist Tim Montgomerie, of Reform UK.Convened by the Together Coalition – the nonprofit cohesion campaign co-founded by Brendan Cox, the widower of the murdered MP Jo Cox – the commission aims to use the project to map out a shared vision for the future amid the fraught and fractured political climate.
Javid said: “Our country is in real peril. Unless we can regain a shared sense of what unites us – of what we have in common – we risk being torn apart by our differences.“That vision won’t come from politicians – it can only come from the public. I’m a great believer in the wisdom of the public – we hope this conversation gives that wisdom voice.”
If you’re such a great believer in the wisdom of the public, why is every Twitter post issued by your PR is set not to allow replies or refuses to engage with replies if it does allow them? Could it be you are just as much a spineless little hypocrite as the rest of the progressive mob in this project?
