A FIFA World Cup host country must guarantee two fundamental principles: the safety of the country — and the unrestricted entry of all qualified teams, officials and referees. The case of referee Omar Artan from Somalia is against one of these obligations. FIFA must never compromise the universality of football. #Fifa #Somalia #GianniInfantino #CAF #OmarAtan #DonaldTrump
Exactly one year ago today we went to the David Hockney exhibition in Paris. It was absolutely fantastic. Tree of the Day is any tree that he painted. He did it so well. What a talent and how much pleasure he will continue to give for the rest of time RIP

If you can, share these images of the beautiful soul stolen from us by the worst of humanity.
Let his face today burn bright.
Barney, I promise you there will be accountability 💛💚
For You. For Grace. For Ian.
This is the kind of thing that was said about the Jews in the 1930s.
It is not hyperbolic to say that degrading an entire culture leads us to a very dark place. Reform are playing with fire right now trying to stop themselves being outflanked by the extremists of Restore.
Ten years ago next week, the Labour MP Jo Cox was stabbed and killed by a white supremacist born in Scotland who hated her support for remaining in the European Union.
Farage and his far-right supporters didn’t give a damn.
This is what happened in Derry in March when Amy Doherty was murdered by a man. No riots, no burning of people out of their homes. This is what could have happened in Belfast except that the riots in Belfast were fuelled not by a shared humanity but racism https://t.co/ddisxg2mLj
He needs riots, he incites them.
He needs boat crossings, Brexit caused them.
He needs high immigration, Brexit caused that.
He needs money, he takes bribes.
These aren't "protests" in Northern Ireland.
They're not "riots" either.
It's a pogrom.
It's a systematic attempt to drive minorities out of their homes using violence.
It's been whipped up by the media, our politicians, and the racist psychopath who runs this app.
Elon musk, an immigrant from Africa, is demonising immigrants from Africa.
This is because he is white and they are black.
Musk is a white suprematist.
This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities.
I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs.
God help this poor woman.
.@ClaireHanna: "Last week, in a very high profile case, the murder of Natalie McNally, the judge.. talked about a frenzied knife attack, he talked about wounds so bad the cause of death was unable to to be determined. There were no riots over the perpetrator of that brutal crime"

BBC slammed by Ross Greer live on air over framing of racist disorder in Belfast “Those were racist rioters. If you're burning the houses down of people who are not white, you are a racist rioter, you're a criminal, you are a scumbag.”
Greer added: “The BBC should not be legitimizing these people by calling them anti-immigration campaigners.

"Let's call this what it is. That isn't protest, that is.... organised, racialised attacks."
