Novelist, travel writer, perennial researcher. Currently exploring link between endometriosis and 'hysteria' and demonstrating that Freud got it all wrong!
Still puzzled about the Israel-Palestine conflict? Read all about it here. “In the opening pages Hilda Reilly provides us with arguably the most lucid and authoritative short summary of the Palestinian question that are available in the English language." https://t.co/BVtoIVmkm7
@ASAPtickets paid yesterday for flight to Florida from UK. Still not received ticket. Emailed agent twice, no reply. Called her number, automatic message said it's 'not valid extension'. Tried general number for ASAP UK Phone rings, plays music then cuts off. What is going on?
Article about media bias in reporting the #Israel-#Palestine conflict published 2004 but still as relevant today and explains general lack of understanding of the situation and lack of sympathy for the #Palestinians@msm_monitor https://t.co/8eJsg5OpYd
1982: Sharon invades Lebanon to destroy the PLO. Thus Hizbollah was born. 2002: Arafat is crushed to end hopes of Palestinian state. Thus Hamas rose up. Now Israel is pulverising Gaza to destroy Hamas. [All such moves had full US support.] Any guesses of likely outcomes?
Let me remind those screaming blue murder when any comparison is made between South African Apartheid with Israel's that Nelson Mandela was never in doubt that Palestinians lived under Apartheid. [Or that Israel was openly the best ally of the White Supremacists in Pretoria]
No electricity, no food, no fuel for 1 million children. Straight from the horse's mouth. That can't be the civilised world's answer, whatever differences we may have on who did what to whom first or last.
Perplexed by the goings-on between #Israel and #Palestine? See here for a reader-friendly explanation. It's 18 years since I lived there and wrote this, and little has changed. If anything, things have got worse. https://t.co/IFrxQTitek
We can't believe Scottish Labour has set up this website during a live police investigation. This is jaw-droppingly unbelievable. Who the hell advised them this was a good idea?

Based on new material found in Negev Desert – ‘the Dead Sea Scrolls of #psychoanalysis’! – the illness and treatment of one of Freud’s patients, combining the narratives of the patient herself, her husband, and #Freud https://t.co/uYNOcI5e0z
Second day in a row a ferries story has led BBC Scotland news. The so-called 'Ferry Crisis' is currently dominating the controversial pro-Union radio programme Good Morning Scotland. Caricature news created to feed a political agenda.
So #Bojo is no longer an MP. Not much change then as previously he was de facto not an MP, always swanning around the world on lucrative speaking engagements or sunning himself on Caribbean beaches. But at least he’s no longer getting paid for doing nothing for his constituents.
Trumpian and toddler-like. If #BorisJohnson can’t be PM he’s determined to ensure that no other Tory can be PM either even if it means scuppering the whole party.
