For last 24 hours I’ve seen footage of horrific scenes from Gaza, just absolute human misery. Yet..it’s not there on any news outlet’s home pages, not discussed on our witless political shows. We’re just going to ignore it? Is that the plan?

The President of the United States taking the piss out of a mentally ill man who died just a couple of days before. Frankly, I expected nothing less from this sociopathic arsehole.

We are concerned at the online polarisation that is affecting relations between British Jews and Muslims. We also recognise that at this time, many Jews feel a very strong sense of alienation, isolation and rejection through political debates and actions. We as Muslims empathise and you do not deserve this. There are times when moral clarity is essential and no ifs or buts - we stand with you and your safety and security.

To put it bluntly amidst all the brouhaha: 1. Israel is not a Jewish state. 2. Jews are not a national or political entity. 3. Zionism is not “a part” of or “inherent” in Judaism; it’s the complete negation of our faith. 4. Eretz Yisrael, the “Land of Israel,” does not translate as the “State of Israel.” The basic concepts are being lost amongst the sea of misinformation propagated by an army of Zionist accounts. But it will prevail. Truth always does.

Seems increasingly likely that using anti-terror laws to arrest pensioners holding Palestine Action placards may be quietly dropped. It would be good if its originator, Yvette Cooper, was dropped from the Government too.
'We don't supply bombs and bullets to Israel that contribute to the occupation.' Foreign Secretary @Ed_Miliband opposes 'grannies and vicars' from Palestine Action being labelled as 'terrorists'.

They claimed it was only illegal migrants who they had a problem with. They claimed it was only foreigners who couldn't speak English that they had a problem with They claimed it was only foreigners who didn't integrate that they had a problem with. Posts like this from a failed Reform candidate show that, actually, it's schoolchildren who have earned a place at high achieving schools that they have a problem with, if they happen to have black or brown skin. It doesn't matter to them if they came here legally, it doesn't matter to them if they have embraced life in this country, it doesn't matter if they were born here, to parents born here. They're not white so to warped individuals like Matthew, they're a problem. They aren't, people like him, and those that enable them are.

Can I get a few reposts for this. Very hard to get publicity for books when you aren’t famous
⚽️ The Smell of Football books TWO and THREE from the legendary trilogy by the brilliant @MickRathbone the former Birmingham City, Blackburn Rovers and Halifax Town player turned physio. 2️⃣ Book two of three is the searingly honest and unputdownable sequel to the award-winning The Smell of Football. In this engrossing and moving but often hilarious memoir, Mick ‘Baz’ Rathbone picks up from where his acclaimed debut tome left off. 🔗 amzn.to/47z9USz 🏟️ There are great stories of the likes of David Moyes, Sir Alex Ferguson, Sir Bobby Charlton and the late, great Ray Clemence. 3️⃣ In the third book, Mick concludes his riveting football trilogy with a 100-day diary starting in the early 2024/25 season. 🔗 amzn.to/4oNNe7y 📚 This book shows just how much the players and officials really do care and just how painful and emotionally draining defeat is. It is an honest account that brings to life the day-to-day running of a professional football club.

I hate the @RNLI and its volunteers so much for having the temerity to rescue people in danger at sea. Therefore, I've demonstrated my hate by starting a monthly donation to @RNLI and, just to show my contempt for the @RNLI , I've added gift aid. #RNLI

The facts behind our work in the Channel. In 2024, our crews launched 114 times to Channel crossings – that's just 1.2% of our total launches. Our core purpose is to save lives at sea. Anyone can drown, but no one should.

Oh Bob Bunchofnumbers. You don’t scare me mate. I’ll carry on sharing my RNLI fundraising link at rebrand.ly/imvl9mb until the cows come home. If you’ve got a problem with that, I’m more than happy to have a little chat. That being said, I’ve heard from a few people this morning who have family members that volunteer for the RNLI, including one who’s had their photo, name and address shared with the whole world - as you can imagine this has led to a great deal of distress. It’s also really stupid behaviour as only a minuscule percentage of the RNLI’s overall call-outs every year are for small boats in The English Channel. So, with the greatest of respect, behave your f*****g self. Like I said - happy to chat if you have an issue with this. We can’t all be cowardly, anonymous bullies on here after all …

Lancashire County Council has announced they will cease supporting refugee resettlement programs throughout our county as a result of Reform's shameful decision. This will undoubtedly demonstrate their right-wing credentials as party conference season gets underway and won't save a single penny. "Survivors of violence and torture," "children and adolescents at risk," and "women and girls at risk" are among those assisted, according to their own Cabinet report. A terrible decision made by those without a moral compass.
Lancashire County Council has announced it will no longer coordinate refugee resettlement schemes after a cabinet decision. Read more ⬇️ hellorayo.co.uk/hits-radio/l…

🚨 A Reform UK spokesperson earlier told us that Nigel Farage’s speech was delayed because counter terrorism police advised them of a threat. Now West Midlands police say that they gave no such advice - assert it was a purely Reform UK decision.
