There is no rise in anti-Semitism. There is a rise in the number of people who are very angry at what Israel is doing. Your inability to separate the two is equally problematic.
🚨 ANIMAL CRUELTY CONVICTION: FRANCIS (FRANK) CROFT, 63, BLACKLEY, MANCHESTER M9
A geriatric dog beaten so violently he had to be put to sleep — and the court gave this man just a THREE‑YEAR ban.
This case is obscene. It is insulting. And it is yet another example of the UK’s broken sentencing system for animal cruelty.
THE VICTIM: GEORGIE, 21 YEARS OLD
Georgie was a frail, elderly Staffordshire bull terrier, described as a kind‑hearted creature who simply pottered around the house.
He had lived with his owner since he was just weeks old. He was family.
On 16 March, Georgie was subjected to a vicious, sustained attack inside a flat in Blackley.
🔴 THE ATTACK
Witnesses saw Francis Croft:
— Kick Georgie, causing him to yelp in pain
— Beat him with a wooden mop handle
— Strike him repeatedly with an ashtray
— Leave him motionless, bleeding from the head
A vet later confirmed Georgie had suffered:
— A skull fracture
— A traumatic brain injury
— Injuries so severe that the only humane option was euthanasia
Croft later bragged that he had “done Brad’s dog”.
⚖️ THE COURT HEARING
Croft claimed Georgie bit him — yet:
— He never mentioned this to police
— There was no evidence
And even if it had happened, the judge said it offered no justification whatsoever
Croft, said to be a chronic drug user, pleaded guilty to causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.
❗ THE SENTENCE
Jail time: 3 years and 9 months
A THREE‑YEAR ban on keeping animals
A three‑year ban for a man who beat a geriatric dog so brutally that his skull fractured.
This is not protection.
This is not deterrence.
This is not justice.
A man who already owned a dog was given a ban so short he’ll legally be allowed another animal before long — despite demonstrating cruelty, sadism, and a total disregard for life.
This case highlights, yet again, the urgent need for:
— Lifetime bans for serious cruelty
— Sentencing that reflects the gravity of the harm done.

So it turns out that the intel that Iran was seeking to kill Trump came from Israel (!) and was deemed by the CIA as “Israeli-derived, not U.S.-generated, and viewed as low confidence”
Anything to get Trump to drop diplomacy and resume war for Israel...

I am in shock - watching Israeli mobs and army destroying Palestinian life.
States recognising Palestine,
Norway as the guardian of the Oslo Accords,
Heads of UN agencies, World Bank,
ICRC, NGOs sur place,
Palestinian Authority:
what are you doing to stop the violent pogroms??
Beyond obscene. Tesla paid Elon Musk 2.5 million times more as CEO than its average worker in 2025. “In 2025, Elon Musk received the median Tesla worker’s pay every 4.23 seconds – less time than it takes to read this sentence.” https://t.co/03TSdkRQS5
