Senior Labour MPs and the UK's largest anti-fascist charity have called on Keir Starmer to mount a more heartfelt defence of diversity and anti-racism.

- Jessica Elgot Rowena Mason Peter Walker

They say they fear that Labour is not yet putting its "heart and soul" into the battle against Nigel Farage and the far right.

Hope Not Hate's chief executive wrote to the prime minister before this weekend's planned far-right demonstration, demanding he speak up more against hate and racism.

In the letter, Nick Lowles said: "Hate breeds when those in power are silent. I implore you and other ministers to speak out urgently in defence of our migrant communities and our multicultural society more generally. It is imperative we all push back against the onslaught of racism we currently face because silence will only encourage our opponents more."

Saka's stunner caps sparkling first-half display in England stroll

Craig Bellamy made the point beforehand that a boxing promoter would not put these opponents in the ring together; the gulf in class was just too great. It was possible to remember the words of the Wales manager as England surged into a 3-0 lead inside 20 minutes. It felt like a technical knockout, this friendly over with indecent haste.
