Stop this hate
IF the London tube driver who led anti- Israel chants on his packed train is not identified and sacked then Transport for London bosses should be.
Would they tolerate any other racist bigotry from their staff? Of course not. So to allow this abuse to go unpunished would speak volumes.

Too often among the liberal-left metropolitan elite, and woke-infested public institutions — who find mortal offence in just about anything they disagree with — anti-semitism gets a free pass.
How else would TfL let this imbecile train driver keep his cushy £60,000-a-year job?
The same sinister phenomenon explains how, shamefully, protesters were allowed to call for “jihad” on the streets of the capital on Saturday without having their collars felt by the Met.
It can’t have escaped the notice of police chiefs that anti-semitic attacks across the country have soared in the wake of Hamas’s massacre of hundreds of innocents.
Allowing the normalisation of anti-Jewish sentiment would be hideously dangerous.
Thousands of useful idiots who joined the pro-Palestine march might argue their concern is for the ordinary people of Gaza.
But implicit in the chants, and too many of the placards and slogans, is support for the genocidal, baby-murdering terrorists of Hamas.
Security sources warn that Islamic extremists are using pro-Palestinian protests to identify, recruit and radicalise a new generation of British terrorists.
The police should be one step ahead of them and arresting those who incite hatred and violence.
Cut those taxes
JEREMY Hunt insists he is a fighter.
We’re glad to hear it. But what he needs to do now is give the Tories some ammunition to fight with before next year’s General Election.
Give voters the tax cuts they crave and put some more money in their pockets; give them a reason to believe the Conservative remain the party of small government and low taxes; recognise their aspirations, reward their hard work and boost growth in the process.
If people would rather put up with stagnation, they can always opt for Keir Starmer’s policy vacuum — but at least they will have a choice.
A football great
AS ordinary fans flocked to Old Trafford yesterday to honour him, it can’t be overstated how special football legend Sir Bobby Charlton was to the beautiful game.
Respected as much for his sportsmanship and integrity as for his sublime skill, he was a true great who will be sorely missed.
Gentleman. Knight. Modest global superstar.
Rest in peace, Sir Bobby.
