The defence ratchet has reached Downing Street. Starmer used military “seriousness” to discipline the left. Now the defence establishment is using it to discipline him — and to force Britain into more cuts, more dependency and more tribute to US power.

CEO of water companies pump shit into our rivers - no consequences. Two youngsters throw soup over the glass covering a famous painting as a political protest - two years in prison. Injustice system.

It is with a heavy heart that I mourn the passing of a great statesman, scholar, and friend, Dr. Henry Kissinger, who left us at the age of 100. Dr. Kissinger's departure marks the end of an era, one in which his formidable intellect and diplomatic prowess shaped not only the

As a Jewish person, my safety and security doesn't depend on killing more Palestinian children. If you want to support war crimes, that's on you, but don't tell me you're doing it for my sake.

Apparently, if you say basic points of fact like - Israel and Palestine aren't two states at war; one occupies the other - you're "trying to use clever words." I would have thought that was pretty relevant context.

The idea that all Jews are represented by racist hooligan Maccabi Tel Aviv fans is antisemitic. Legia Warsaw fans barred from Villa Park, not anti-Polish. Frankfurt fans barred from Napoli, not anti-German. Our political-media class cannot be consistent and has lost its mind.

So much crap is spouted about Jeremy Corbyn. This morning, I was delighted to call out one of Jeremy Kyle's falsehoods about him - and get an on air correction.

Anti-Palestinian ideas run so deep in Western political discourse that this is what happens when you ask ChatGPT "do Palestinians deserve to be free?" H/t @RamAbdu

I've never experienced anything like this in a TV studio or anywhere. I went on to call for a ceasefire, but the other guy just wanted to abuse me as a "lover of Jew haters" & a "supporter of evil Hamas". He's probably still shouting into his laptop.

It is easy to condemn Hamas atrocities that we have no role in. But it seems hard to condemn Israeli war crimes precisely because our political and media class supports them. Do the difficult thing: loudly oppose British complicity in Israel turning Gaza into rubble.

They are trying to make "Free Palestine" controversial. It isn't. It's a basic cry for dignity and justice for an oppressed people. Free Palestine.

We are being royally mugged off. Expensive housing, public services on their knees, rip off bills, static pay for the many while the few's wealth soars away. Migrants didn't cause that. It was the bankers, bosses and billionaires & the political-media class that they control.

If you go on the British media and start to lay out the crimes - alleged in two world courts Britain is a member of - committed by a British ally, using British weapons, with British political-media class support, you get cut off. Quite telling really.

As a Jewish Arsenal fan, this is truly pathetic. People have a right to protest, particularly the slaughter of tens of thousands in Gaza.
