As the government considers banning social media use for children under 16, I've written about how, regardless of what is decided, our own community urgently needs to better prepare our children for the tsunami of tsuris headed their way.
The suffering of the people of Iran is not a partisan issue. The fact that their plight inside Iran has been politicised to the extent that their suffering doesn’t matter to the generality of Western civil society simply because it’s not Israel killing them but an appalling regime which not only PRETENDS to stand up for Palestinians, it’s real and clearly stated aim is to wipe Israel - and all Jews - off the face of the earth, will go down as one of the most disgraceful episodes in the history of our species.
I didn't call any of you "shit hires". I referred to the outlet as "excreteo" - & before I knew who had decided to join it.
You linking this to skin colour is a deeply pathetic reach - indicating the sort of "journalism" your "independent media" outlet will no doubt produce 🙄
This is revolting.
Black men are twice as likely to develop prostate cancer as white men of the same age.
It's not about two tiers, it's about focusing on those most at risk.
There's an entirely legitimate argument that screening should be available to everyone, but given the money made available, to frame this as some sort of positive discrimination in favour of black people is foul.
The bodycam footage of Henry Nowak - dying in front of police officers as they slap handcuffs on him and respond in the bored tones of officialdom to his pleas - is absolutely haunting.
I cannot comprehend how any officer involved in that could possibly remain in their jobs.
I've written about the issues within the Green party which have come into even sharper focus after their candidate for the Makerfield by-election stepped down just hours after being announced, it then being revealed he had shared Hatzola ambulance false flag conspiracy theories.
A few weeks ago, we wrote about how the Green party’s chief videographer has been sharing similar stuff - https://t.co/r5oLJDbACN
This was the Green Party’s piss-poor response. SINCE that story, he’s done another video, with @ZoeGarbett.
The Greens are infested by this stuff.
There we go. The reason the Green Party abruptly dropped the Makerfield by-election candidate who they announced *this morning* is because he shared “false flag” conspiracy theories about the firebombing of Hatzolah ambulances.
You insist that you aren't allowed to criticize Israel without being called antisemitic.
Right now, Israelis are tearing into Ben Gvir.
No one's calling us antisemites.
But when you criticize Israel, you deny it should exist. When we do, we demand it be better.
Get it?
I’ve written about how the experiences of my children before and after October 7th 2023 are a microcosm of what has happened to our society. As I say, if anger is an energy, I’m feeling pretty energetic right now. My col for @telegraph https://t.co/94nHggjvL6
Kelsey Parker has said she was treated like a criminal after her son Phoenix was stillborn at home last summer. Now, she wants to campaign for better care for people who have lost a baby.
I met Shalev Moshe today whose brother Eden was shot to death at the Nova festival on October 7. He cannot accept the loss and drowns in thoughts that they won’t grow old together. They were getting to the age where siblings become friends but it was ripped away. Heartbreaking.
Our thoughts are with the families & loved ones following this horrific attack. Every community deserves to feel safe in their place of worship.
Anti-Islamic writing was found in the car the suspects were found in, according to The New York Times, and the words “hate speech” were written on one of the firearms used in the attack. Dehumanising rhetoric has real-world consequences. This deadly anti-Muslim hate must end.
Everyone needs to go to the @novaexhibition in London.
I have just been and I am completely shaken by what I saw.
As you walk among the tents, awnings and burnt out cars salvaged from October 7, you’re shown footage from the day, filmed by festival goers and bodycam footage of the Hamas terrorists.
The glee with which they murdered innocent people is vile. There’s no glory in it or justification for it.
As well as the brutality and evil of that day, there are also inspiring messages of hope.
If you really want to understand what happened on October 7 and how it felt, please go.
You will l leave deeply affected by it. But also, somehow, with more hope for humanity.
