"British Museum hosted Palantir founder Peter Thiel in private viewing of Bayeux tapestry. Concern among staff that fragile artwork’s scarce ‘light hours’ given to someone with no known interest in museum"

Deeply ashamed that, despite a sizeable majority of Greeks opposing the genocidal Apartheid state, we have allowed our ruling class to taint Greece through this despicable deal.
🚨 National March - Tell Andy Burnham Stop Arming Israel
⏰ 26 Sept, 12PM
📍 St George's Plateau, Liverpool
Join us as we march to Labour Conference in Liverpool to demand the new PM take urgent action to Stop Arming Israel and impose sanctions now.
That the event has been relocated to a synagogue is disturbing, suggesting that organisers are using a place of worship as cover for potentially criminal activity. It adds to an inaccurate and dangerous conflation of Israel's crimes with a community of faith in this country. 6/7
As soon as we found out about the event, we called on it to be cancelled and for its organisers to be investigated. We stand by that position, no matter where it is held. 3/7 https://t.co/1mVd4LvKFm
The @BBCWorld is pathetically & quite disgracefully timid in the face of pro-Israeli lobbying. They are spectacularly failing to tell truth to power
Very worrying for some: I’ve been included. One fellow who tweets here and who blocks me, has responded to me being on this mural, with a vomit emoji. That feels like a very grown up thing to do. All’s well in Muswell Hill then.
BREAKING: The Israeli naval vessel that abducted the 180 Sumud Flotilla crews off the coast of Crete (an act of piracy and a gross violation of the Law of the Sea) is intend on victimising two of them: Saif Abukeshek, a Spanish citizen of Palestinian origin, and Thiago Ávila, a Brazilian citizen who has distinguished himself with repeated attempts to break the illegal, genocidal, Israeli blockage of Gaza.
Unlike the remaining abducted members of the Sumud Flotilla crew, which the Israeli navy disembarked in Crete, Saif and Thiago are detained and bound for an Israeli prison. This is a double violation of International Law: First, Israel abducted them illegally at sea. Second, Israel is now transporting them, violently, illegally, to one of its notorious prisons.
Meanwhile, the Greek government is cooperating fully in Israel’s criminal behaviour, effectively surrendering its search and rescue obligations and conniving with Israel to victimise the brave crews of the Sumud Flotilla who are steadfastly, through their activism, defending International Law as well as the verdict of the International Court of Justice which has clearly and unequivocally declared Israel’s continued naval blockade of Gaza and its occupation of the Palestinian territories illegal.
Through their complicity and their silence, the Greek government, the European Union, the mainstream media, the West more generally, are flouting, indeed they are trashing, their supposed, much publicised, ‘Western values’. Let us all demand:
· The immediate release of Saif and Thiago
· An end to Israel’s criminal behaviour in international waters
· The termination of Israel’s illegal Gaza blockade
· That the Greek government and the European Union cease and desist from lending logistical and moral support to Israel’s genocide in Gaza and its ethnic cleansing campaigns in E. Jerusalem and the West Bank
Well, there you have it.
British nationals are serving in a foreign army which is committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, including genocide.
Those are illegal acts.
The Metropolitan police has decided it won't open an investigation into them.
The ‘antisemitic terrorism’ narrative around the Golders Green incident on Wednesday has now collapsed. The alleged assailant was mentally unwell with previous convictions for stabbing, dating back years, and he had left psychiatric care in recent days. One of his three victims (yes three, not two!) was a Muslim. While suffering an apparent mental health crisis, two Met officers kicked his head in IDF-style and then the Met justified it like a Netanyahu press conference.
We’re supposed to believe this man was an ‘antisemitic terrorist’ in the pay of Iran, motivated to attack Jews because of pro-Palestine protests and chants. This is a total sham and deeply insidious. The mainstream media, politicians, and the Metropolitan Police are colluding with Zionists to exploit this attack to further erode freedom of expression and assembly, and to expand Jewish militias in London.
Welcome to the complete Zionisation of British politics!
It seems ordinary X users know far more about the charges against Essa Suleiman than Sky News, and most of the British political and media class.
What possible reason could there be for the media not to have noticed that he's also accused of attempting to murder a Muslim man?
There is a name for boarding a ship and abducting innocent civilians in international waters, @BBCWorld. Its not called 'interception'. The word is piracy.
Absolute bombshell. Respected Jewish Rabbi Herschel Gluck completely shatters the establishment narrative. He confirms more British Jews march for Palestine pro-rata than any other group. He declares banning these protests is an actual antisemitic attack on the Jewish community.
Weird that even the police, in their tweet, though not in the full statement itself, are just airbrushing the fact that he’s being charged with three attempted murders, not two, the third person being a Muslim man he stabbed earlier in the day
Next Wednesday sees the launch of Double Down Newswatch, a new weekly magazine programme that will showcase the best of independent media.
Here I explain why it's needed.

Jake Wallis Simons was editor of the Jewish Chronicle, a right wing rag that lies constantly & has probably had more complaints against it upheld than any other publication in the UK. He either shouldn’t be given a platform or should be listed as ‘Israel Lobbyist with a penchant for lying’. He has done more than anyone to destroy the crucial struggle against actual antisemitism by abusing the use of the term to the point of making it meaningless.
Israeli 🇮🇱 occupying ‘settlers’ burning out Palestinians from their homes in the West Bank 🇵🇸
Burning the homes with Palestinians 🇵🇸 inside
It’s illegal occupation
It’s racist apartheid
It’s ethnic cleansing
Sanctions against 🇮🇱 now
Boycott 🇮🇱 now
Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.
Solidarity with all those on the Gaza flotilla attempting to break the illegal blockade by occupation forces.
The occupations navy have announced a large scale operation against the flotilla.
We have confirmed reports from friends present of flotilla boats being harassed by drones and approached by military boats.
All eyes on them. 🇵🇸
Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya is being held unlawfully. His arbitrary detention must immediately be brought to an end. Each additional day compounds the responsibility of those detaining him.
May all Palestinian hostages be released soon.
May the perpetrators face justice soon.
