Twitter is like shouting out of an open window and hoping someone might hear. Find me on Facebook where my 466 FB friends all agree I’m f-ing hysterical

George Orwell: It began unobtrusively, almost politely. A post here and there disappeared—quietly, without explanation or ceremony. An article was removed from circulation, then another. Each absence was small enough to be dismissed, each deletion subtle enough to avoid resistance. Nothing was announced; nothing was debated. Silence, after all, rarely provokes outrage.

In time, the pattern became more ambitious. A full news outlet vanished from the public sphere. Care was taken, of course. This particular outlet had permitted voices that questioned authority, and that alone made it dangerous. Yet its removal could not appear ideological. It had to be justified, reframed as a protective measure—necessary for public order, for social harmony, for the safety of children. History had shown that the public rarely resists when restrictions are presented as safeguards. People will surrender almost anything if they are told it is for their own good.

And so they did.

Freedom of expression was not seized in a single, dramatic act. It was eroded incrementally, diluted until it no longer resembled the right it once was. The public did not protest because they did not perceive the loss. What is taken slowly, invisibly, is rarely mourned. By the time the absence is felt, the language to describe it has already been censored.

What remained was a carefully managed narrative—one that served not the public, but the authority itself. Safety became the justification; control, the objective. And those who might have spoken out found that the space to do so had quietly, efficiently, and irrevocably disappeared.

On the holiest day of the year we are attacked at a Manchester synagogue. Our children walk to school behind barbed wire protected by guns. Yet some still answer this atrocity with “what about…” This is my country, the sanctuary my grandfather found after surviving the Holocaust, promising freedom under the rule of law. Today I pray for the victims, thank the brave who responded and wonder if that promise is fading. A community this small cannot stand alone. If you believe in Britain (wherever you’re from & whatever your faith) you must stand with us. Many Jews cannot imagine a future here and history tells us what follows when that happens.

@tonyblackburn I worked with you once in when I was an ad producer. You were great and getting to visit Capital Radio was a childhood dream come true.
