Predictably, Israel’s intervention to protect the Druze drew almost more criticism than the slaughter that necessitated it. A moral world order worth defending cannot afford selective outrage – neither over Syria, Gaza or anywhere else, our leader argues. thejc.com/opinion/leader…

Entitled middle-class white person feels outraged that her actions have consequences.
Just another day in Britain, where the Edinburgh Fringe has banned two shows by Jews. So much for the 'no place for antisemitism' drivel. There is every place for Jew hate in today's Britain. thejc.com/news/uk/two-je…
Here's my @spectator column, 'The BBC has finally done something right': "Three cheers for the BBC. Its critics are completely wrong and its decision making is spot on. To be clear, I’m not referring to its coverage of Bob Vylan at Glastonbury, the Gaza documentary narrated by…
"Hamas does not appear to be coordinated or acting in good faith." Whodathunkit, eh?
Steve Witkoff: We have decided to bring our team home from Doha for consultations after the latest response from Hamas, which clearly shows a lack of desire to reach a ceasefire in Gaza. While the mediators have made a great effort, Hamas does not appear to be coordinated or…
My @Telegraph column on the new party for loons, 'If you’re a hard-Left cultist, this is indeed Your Party': "I guess it depends on how you define “Your”. If you mean a party for rancid hate-mongers, hard-Left ideologues, economic basket cases and other cultists then yes, it is…
When Milei is described as far-right the term has lost all meaning theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
Not sure a party for rancid hate mongers is really that new. But hey ho, each to their own
It's time for a new kind of political party - one that belongs to you. Sign up at yourparty.uk.
1. Who made this decision? 2. What did the chief constable know and when? 3. When was the police and crime commissioner informed? 4. What is the nature of the relationship between Essex Police and Stand Up To Racism? 5. And similar organisations like Hope Not Hate?
I've just heard the Chief Constable of Essex say, 'It's not for me to examine that operation.' The Chief Constable at a press conference convened by him about the conduct of that operation. Speechless.
Essex constabulary: What we should see disclosed. I'm open to correction but quite apart from the absurd and destructive evasion over the bussed in counter protestors here is what I think the police should be asked about in terms of *process*: 1/

A two-step @BowenBBC masterclass on ‘how to con BBC readers and license fee payers’: Step 1: Make unsubstantiated claims with zero attribution. Step 2: Omit key facts, like the US also condemns the ICJ’s legal process. And voilà, you have a @BBCNews article that reads more…
Here's my @Telegraph column on Len McCluskey: "I’ve a rule of thumb which, over the past decade, has pretty much always proved correct. Find an ally of Jeremy Corbyn – especially one who spent most of the former Labour leader’s period in office arguing that the party’s…
Here's my @JewishChron column on how, after sitting on its own survey for 14 months, @NASUWT highlights far right incidents and ignores Israel-related hate. Jews are, as ever, fodder for the hard left: "There is something rather bittersweet in learning that earlier this month…
My God this is pathetic. O'Brien broadcast what I'd say is the most incendiary and grotesque Jew hating blood libel I've ever heard on a mainstream channel, and this is his response to the outrage: he broadcast it "in good faith" and, oops, "sorry". O'Brien has, if anything,…
Are you really comparing local residents who are concerned about the likely issues with housing hundreds of male asylum seekers near schools and housing estates to nazis and fascists? Tower Hamlets Labour Party is an absolute joke no wonder why it’s still in special measures.
