And for the Labour Party hacks, getting to treat another country’s electoral process like it’s one massive theme park is doubtless a dream come true.  Everyone’s a winner.

			It doesn't look right to me that the Labour Government's Head of Operations is drumming up paid election support for a particular candidate in another Country, no matter how Sir Keir Starmer tries to sugar coat it   .

I'm against foreign nationals getting hands-on in foreign countries' elections.

It's only allowed as long as they are volunteering.

Don't worry, Lammy began the crawling back in May!

		| Donald Trump is "often misunderstood" over his commitment to Nato, shadow foreign secretary David Lammy has said during a goodwill mission to the US. 
 Despite "shocking" comments about European allies, Mr Lammy said the ex-president's time in the White House had led to a better-funded Nato alliance.
 
 Mr Lammy previously called Mr Trump a "neo-Nazi sympathising sociopath".
 
 But he said Labour would work with a future Trump administration, in a speech at a Republican think tank.
