@campbellclaret@RestIsPolitics Why have you still said nothing about the terrorist attack in Golders Green? Shouldn’t it warrant an “emergency podcast”?
@lmharpin@SabriSun_Miller Lee, I think you came to JFS when I was a student there. All this means is less Jewish children attending Jewish school. JFS is already oversubscribed. I would argue this is problematic, at a time of increasing antisemitism in the UK.
Very sad to learn of closure of the brilliant Immanuel College at the end of the current academic year. A real blow to Bushey and the Jewish community.
Yet another victim of Labour’s VAT raid on private schools.

@Daniel_Sugarman With the state of antisemitism in the UK, this means less Jewish children will be able to attend Jewish schools. Labour always had this ideology against private schools though, I guess it makes sense.
Radical Israelis have allegedly established a settlement in Area A of the West Bank, which is under full control of the Palestinian Authority.
The violence in the West Bank is absolutely unacceptable. Horrific stories of Radicals in the West Bank attacking Palestinian civilians, murdering animals, and even torturing Palestinians are far too common these days.
Watching all of this unfold is beyond tragic. Israel must crack down on these violent radicals.
This is disgraceful.
But with a mayor who has a history of calling the police “racist, evil, wicked and corrupt,” he set the tone.
Words have consequences. We are seeing that in the growing disrespect for law enforcement — just as we’ve seen it in the rise in antisemitism.
Real leaders understand that. This mayor does not.
@NYCMayor must denounce this at once
🚨: @MontgomeryToms & @WillColeshill ASSAULTED, ATTACKED, AND ARRESTED DURING A UNIVERSITY DEBATE
Full Statement:
Yesterday, Montgomery Toms (Founder of Freedom Watch GB) visited the London College of Communication to publicly debate mass deportations, a position that is openly discussed and increasingly accepted in mainstream political discourse.
During what had been a calm and orderly debate, a student came up behind @MontgomeryToms and violently flipped the table. Cameras were broken, Montgomery was assaulted, and additional equipment was damaged.
@WillColeshill, cameraman, editor, and friend of Freedom Watch GB, immediately stepped in to defend Monty and restrained the individual under a citizen’s arrest. This was lawful and justified. The individual had already assaulted Monty, damaged property, and posed a clear risk of further harm or fleeing before police arrived. All legal criteria for a citizen’s arrest were met.
University lecturers, LCC security, and students then intervened aggressively, placing William in a chokehold, grabbing and hitting him, while the man who assaulted Monty was also kicking and biting him. This disrupted the citizen’s arrest and allowed the individual who assaulted Monty and damaged our equipment to walk free. Drinks were thrown at William by other LCC students, and he was further assaulted and grabbed, forcing Monty to intervene and pull off those restraining and attacking William.
Monty called the police immediately after the citizens arrest took place. When officers arrived, they initially appeared supportive. That changed the moment they saw our banner, which read: “Britain Needs Mass Deportations.” From that point on, the situation shifted dramatically.
William Coleshill was accused of assaulting the individual who had attacked Monty, despite the fact that he was lawfully restraining him while waiting for police that he asked to be called. It is our sincere belief that this sudden change in attitude by the Metropolitan Police was politically motivated. The footage does not fully capture this shift, but it was clear and unmistakable in person.
William was then arrested following an altercation in which an officer aggressively shoved him after he understandably asked whether the man who assaulted both Monty and himself was going to be arrested. This was just after the Police had read and understood our political stance.
While being detained, William reports hearing the leading officer say, “You brought this upon yourself.” Monty was also told by the same officer that he should not be surprised by the reaction, namely the assault, that took place along with another officer that claimed it is illegal to be offensive. The largest polling political party in the country, Reform UK, openly supports mass deportations of hundreds of thousands of migrants. This is a well accepted debate and should not warrant or risk physical attacks.
The police were called because Monty was assaulted. Yet the individual who carried out the attack was not arrested. Instead, the man who lawfully intervened to protect him was detained. This is a clear abuse of power and reflects a politically motivated, two-tier approach to policing.
We want thank William Coleshill for his immediate and selfless act of stepping in without hesitation to defend Monty.
We will not be silenced with fear, and Montgomery Toms will continue to fight for freedom. We will not stop engaging in calm, open, and respectful debate.
However, Freedom Watch GB needs your support. We are just getting started, and after these events, we believe we must take the necessary steps to fund paid security to mitigate further attacks, but we can't do that without your help.

I wanna be sick.
Day after Holocaust remembrance day in the UK outside Parliament.
Pro-Palestine sickos dress up as Holocaust victims and hold up antisemitic signs.
