Activists have held up placards showing the racist words of Maureen Lipman outside the Theatre Royal where her run of Allegra starts tomorrow.
She is well know for her anti-Arab, anti-Palestinian views and for scoffing at the idea of the Palestinian right of return. 🗝 🇵🇸
❤️Even Fleetwood Mac called this their best performance ever.
The band said they've never played better than this.
Not a single note was wrong. Fleetwood Mac is at the peak of their form.❤️
This spree of attacks against Muslims by a man with a sword in Edinburgh yesterday is as serious a crime as that perpetrated by the man with a knife in Belfast.
Note the difference in response. Not least by the algorithm on here.

Being a Friend of Israel is a career move. It’s like being a freemason. It sends a message to the ruling class that you can be trusted to manage the state machine, that you put self interest above political principles, basically that you can be bought.
Minimum wage in 2005 was £5.05 an hour.
A Freddo cost 10p.
One hour of work bought you 50 Freddos.
In 2026, minimum wage is £12.71 and a Freddo is 39p.
One hour of work now buys you just 32 Freddos.
So despite minimum wage more than doubling, your Freddo buying power has fallen by 36%.
If wages had actually kept pace with Freddo inflation, minimum wage would be £19.65 an hour today.
Forget economists. Forget politicians.
The Freddo has just delivered the most depressing cost of living graph you'll ever see.
"I'm protecting the country from these fucking Muslim bastards raping our young daughters" said a white Scottish man arrested after 5 people were stabbed in Edinburgh.
I’ll fucking say it, this is on Nigel Farage and Rupert Lowe.
If you had told me 10 years ago that a billionaire would accuse humans of drinking too much water in 2026 because data centres need it to power the AI tech that is now threatening our entire way of life, I would have told you to write a better Bond villain, because wtf?
Marcelo Bielsa, sobre las pausas para la publicidad en el Mundial:
"Jugar cuatro tiempos en lugar de dos altera la concepción que culturalmente se había construido para interpretar el fútbol. No le agrega nada y le quita mucho".
"Cuando se dividió en cuatro no se pensó en el efecto que puede tener sobre lo que hizo que el fútbol sea un deporte que enamora, sino que se pensó en otro tipo de repercusiones".
Marcelo Bielsa: “Jugar cuatro tiempos en lugar de dos altera la concepción que culturalmente se había construido para interpretar el fútbol. No le agrega nada y le quita mucho. Cuando se dividió en cuatro no se pensó en el efecto que puede tener sobre lo que hizo que el fútbol sea un deporte que enamora, sino que se pensó en otro tipo de repercusiones que no las discuto ni las analizo. Antes de esta decisión el fútbol tenía una característica; ahora tiene otra. La gente se enamora del juego por sus características”.
They knew exactly who Mona Khalil was.
They knew the bright orange house in Mansouri, south Lebanon. They knew it was not a military site, not a command center, not a battlefield position. It was one of the most recognizable symbols of environmental conservation on Lebanon's southern coast; a sanctuary dedicated to protecting endangered sea turtles and preserving life.
Mona spent her years defending the most vulnerable creatures of the Mediterranean, teaching generations that every life matters, that nature is not a casualty to be discarded, and that humanity has a duty to protect what cannot protect itself.
Yet the same orange house that stood as a beacon of conservation became a target for terrorist Israel.
This was an assault on a woman whose life's work was devoted to safeguarding life itself. A woman known internationally for her environmental activism, whose name had become synonymous with the protection of Lebanon's coastline and its endangered sea turtles.
The murder of Mona Khalil sends a chilling message: even those whose only weapon is compassion, whose only mission is preservation, are not spared.
