Me on #PoliticsLive: fuss re Kemi's toxic language is SO irritating from party that gave us Lucy Powell's dog whistle attack on mentioning grooming gangs, Lammy labelling Brexiteers as Nazis & nasty, ugly demonising of dissenters as far right/racist/ignorant gammon. Grrr

Excellent from @LordIanAustin on yet ANOTHER debate on the evils of Israel:

As he says: ‘Over the last few years, Parliament has discussed Israel more than any other issue, not just any international issue, more than any domestic issue: more than the economy, unemployment, crime, the NHS.
‘The public out there look at Parliament and think this is utterly mad, utterly, utterly mad.’

Lord Ian blames Parliament for helping fuel antisemitism adding:

‘Does Parliament not understand that singling out the world's only Jewish state, holding its standards not applied to anywhere else, falsely accusing Israel of committing these terrible crimes? ‘This is bound to drive hostility towards people who are identified with Israel, which is the vast majority of the Jewish community, and I have to say this is why I believe Parliament is playing a large role in driving the explosion of anti-Semitism that we've seen on the streets of Britain.’

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

David Lammy said that he wouldn’t take the knee for Henry Nowak and now sees it as just mere “symbolism.”

In 2021, he not only supported taking the knee for BLM, he also went on a rant about England fans who booed players who took the knee during the Euros.

We haven’t forgotten

The thing is, it's not just two tier policing. It's two tier everything.

Just a reminder, Polanski is the actual leader of a political party, calling for a list of Jews to be compiled.

37 years ago the Chinese army killed large numbers of people in Beijing and elsewhere when it cracked down on student protests. I was there and saw it happen myself. Nowadays China tries to claim the Tiananmen massacre was invented by the international media. That’s a total lie.

Politicians who clap when women are forced to undress in front of men in the workplace are beneath contempt.

[Matt Goodwin @GoodwinMJ]

Keir Starmer: “there is no such thing as two-tier policing”.

Police chiefs today: “we will review controversial guidance advising officers to treat ethnic minorities differently”.

The absurdity of modern Britain.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

I knew what I was getting into when I entered this debate and compared to what others have suffered, I've got off lightly. Even so, it continues to astound that Kemi Badenoch remains the only UK political leader offering unequivocal solidarity to women defending their rights.

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

Was it wrong to “politicise” the Stephen Lawrence murder? Or that of George Floyd? What does the word “politicise” even mean in that context? Don’t tell me that it is right to “rage against the machine” when state authorities fail black murder victims for reasons connected with race, but that we are obliged not to “stir up tensions” when the victim happens to be white. It is this two-tier approach that is fuelling tensions and division. Can the establishment not see it?

Bingo

[Heidi Bachram @HeidiBachram]

Pro-Pal accosts national treasure Helen Mirren on the streets of London last night and calls her an “evil Zionist b*tch” just because she thinks Israel should exist. Well done to her companion who told him to “f*ck off”.

@salltweets I hope AU will come to its senses eventually. I’m sorry you had to be the test case for this nonsense and suffer through this. Sending support and love from the UK.

[James Cleverly🇬🇧 @JamesCleverly]

Side note.

To the Labour MPs who shout “Liz Truss” whenever the economy is discussed, should note that the UK 10yr bond yield under Truss peaked at 4.7%

This morning, because of Reeves’ and Starmer’s ineptitude the 10yr bond yield is 5.02%

Labour crashed the economy.

@GideonFalter @Telegraph Amazing speech today Gideon, thank you.

This is deeply depressing

[Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis @chiefrabbi]

“On Sunday May 10, we will gather in central London to stand against antisemitism. This is a hatred we must face down together.”

Whoever coined the nickname “Walter Titty” for Zack Polanski deserves a Pulitzer

[Jonathan Eric Lewis @LewisJonathanE]

Aberdeen (Scotland) "pro-Palestinian" activists are demanding a Jewish actress - who they portray as the devil - not be allowed to perform in a local theater production

This is gutter-level stuff
