I'm delighted to announce that in mid-May I will be joining @jewishnewsuk as its Deputy Editor. I'm really excited to be returning to journalism - particularly at such a fantastic publication! If you have any tip-offs or pictures of Spider Man, feel free to DM me from late April.
They went from “we don’t hate Jews we only hate Zionists” to “Jews deserved the Holocaust” in less than 2 years. This was never about land.
“What if the Jews did something to the Germans”, “Hitler was trying to save the world”, “How do we take [the Jews] down?”, “Genocide.” This isn’t 1940s Germany — it’s a 2025 podcast. Suzette, a recent culinary high school grad from south Florida goes full Nazi and Pompano-based…
Jewish people are doing everything they can to proudly remain in artistic spaces in the UK. It's venues - those which appear to decide that cancelling Jews from performing is simply easier than dealing with additional stress or aggravation - which are letting them down

I believe this symbolic act is likely to significantly backfire. Countries like the UK will be forced to conclude that if they do not swiftly recognise a Palestinian state there will be an increasingly slim chance of the future existence of any such state to recognise.

Good to see that a group of cross-party Parliamentarians are pushing for this. The government has taken steps forward in this regard, but it hasn't yet gone all the way - and it should. jewishnews.co.uk/government-urg…
I've double-checked the electoral commission website and it turns out that Change UK is available, if Jeremy and Zarah want it.

You can kind of forgive Politics Joe for this, given the actual statement put out by Corbyn & Sultana includes a call to "sign up at www.yourparty. uk to be part of the founding process." Just excellent comms from this new political outfit. Ten out of ten.

Bit by bit, European Jews are being forced to hide their identity in order to continue to be a part of general society.

You'd think @wlaotearoa, a self described "left wing feminist women's organisation" might think twice before sharing a post from Concannon, a vocal white nationalist. But hey, it's focusing on Jews in connection with Israel, which is where the far-right & far-left come together.

I’m just interested to hear exactly how Crankace Owen is going to try and blame the Jews for the Macrons suing her.
“Look, times are desperate and we needed a way to trick the players into turning up” said Reuben Amorim.

I have to make a confession. It’s a difficult one, but bear with me. At a top secret Jewish school under Mitzvah Island, Uncle Moishy teaches children that Novara Media is inferior to the Jewish News. We were told never to publicise this secret, but I feel I have no choice.
“…and next up is a caller who claims his Jewish wife was taught to kick puppies in the face at Shabbat School. Welcome to the show, Adolf”
“The cardinal rule of journalism is simple. Check. Your. Facts.l. If a listener texts your radio show with a claim so obscene it reads like it was scrawled in crayon on a crack house door, check it. “Yesterday, James O’Brien failed that test.” jewishnews.co.uk/voice-of-the-j…
O’Brien’s response to this was a 20 second reference to it in his show today, in which he talked about acting in “good faith”. That’s it. And no response from LBC. I guess his listening figures (1.3 million a week, more than 5 times the UK’s Jewish population) mean more to them.
THIS is how "anti-Zionism" slips effortlessly into antisemitism. While discussing Gaza, a leading UK radio host shares a claim UK Jewish children are taught in 'Shabbat School' that 'one Jewish life is worth thousands of Arab lives, and that Arabs are cockroaches to be crushed.'
