Wow, have they only just noticed? They also need to take a look at Farage and some of their own media. It's not an accident that fascism is on the rise.

No. It's just reached the point that they can no longer remain diplomatic about it. Which I suspect was similarly the case in the 1930s.

Yep, while the UK police are busy throwing anti-genocide protesters into prisons. Definitely not even slightly fascist.

House of Commons calls on Keir Starmer to condemn Donald Trump’s ‘interference’ in European politics

That's pure comedy gold.

The House of Commons seems to have never had a problem interfering in the politics of other countries. For example, in Georgia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doKuOlpffdU

I've heard how British MPs talk. Their rhetoric may be particular to Britain, but they are every bit as evil, bigoted, genocidal and whateverr else as their American counterparts. The once upon a time "socialist" Labour isn't even tailing Reform at this point, they are just leapfrogging each other on the worst kind of shit straight out of 1939 Germany.
In various degrees and according to domestic conditions, the trend is the same all over the empire.
