        Wrong. It is "Legitimise"... syntax, read about our English syntax.

        It is. But that is not the issue. The sentence requires an adverb not a verb. The adverb is legitimise. Stop digging.

        I don't know if you're trolling, but legitimise is not an adverb. Both used. The dictionary e.g. is also the same usage as in vid.pic.twitter.com/4vFZq3FrZ6

        Some are against immigration. And that's their right. Last time I looked it wasn't illegal. Anti-semitism in Labour is a real problem though

        Antisemitism in Labour was looked into, Chakrabarti said it all peachy and Corbyn made her a Dame.
