Today on @TheRestHistory, a new series on 1956.
We kick off with THE SUEZ CRISIS, which forced on Britain a sombre & depressing truth: you can have a suave manner, perfect tailoring & an immaculately clipped moustache, & still massively screw up

I see Lionel Blair is trending. The master of seminal 80s light entertainment show Give Us A Clue, who can forget the look of wonder on Una Stubbs' face as Lionel's magic fingers were able to bring off The Dirty Dozen in under two minutes.

We're all on the same page re @visegrad24, yes? As in, it's a far right agitprop account and nobody should believe a word it says? Because an alarming number of you seem to take this "fall of Europe" stuff seriously. Gin up a crisis atmosphere and suddenly, anything is justified.

Well no, Sky News @adamparsons. Because Palestinian voters don't vote in Israeli elections. They vote in Palestinian elections, which you may care to note have not been held for 20 years. But Israeli Arabs and CITIZENS of Israel, then yes, they can vote if they wish.
Could Palestinian voters tip Israel's election?
