*Shocking, Reform UK's Robert Kenyon again refuses to apologise for insulting Carol Vorderman, and doubles down* #BBCQT

Sarah Wakefield, "I spoke to Carol Vorderman this morning, she's really distressed that you, Robert Kenyon, have failed to apologise for any of these comments"

Fiona Bruce, "What, about her specifically?"

Sarah Wakefield, "About her specifically. She is watching at home tonight. And I wonder if you can look down that camera and say to Carol, you know what Im sorry"

Robert Kenyon, "You know what.. I never said anything to Carol. I commented on a comment"

"Don't get me wrong it was a disgusting comment that someone else had written, but I commented on a comment"

Fiona Bruce, "With approval?"

Robert Kenyon, 'Pardon?"

Fiona Bruce, "With approval?"

Robert Kenyon, "It was a crass joke, its not something I'd say now"

Sarah Wakefield, "Every woman in this room and at home has been subjected to shaming, in person or online"

Robert Kenyon, "That's disgusting, it's horrible"

Sarah Wakefield, "He's just proven my point. Can you believe this?"

"We have all been subjected to it, and the fact that a man like you cannot apologise, I think is disgraceful"

Robert Kenyon, "I've addressed the issue"

Sarah Wakefield, "On tope of that, Reform UK's policies on women are shocking"

"Reform on day one want to repeal the Equality Act"

Robert Kenyon, "No, no, that's absolute nonsense"

Sarah Wakefield, "That's Reform UK's party policy"

"I can't believe as a mum of a young daughter, I'm having to sit here in 2026, and make the case for me and my daughter to have the right to equal pay"

Robert Kenyon, "No no"

Sarah Wakefield, "This is what the Reform party stand for"

"They are a party that has a problem with women"

"And they need to sort it out"

Robert Kenyon, "No no"

*audience erupts in applause*

New figures show Reform raked in £9m in 3 months, with Farage still in the hotseat for his £5m "gift" from billionaire Chris Harborne.

£4m came from billionaire Ben Delo, who was convicted for facilitating money laundering in the US, but pardoned by Trump.

Find time to read this quite astonishingly good piece by
@ArwaM Mahdawi. Brilliant on our government's appalling moral confusion over Gaza

"Why is Hasan Piker ‘not conducive to the public good’? Because on Gaza, we punish the witness, not the crime"

Ilan Pappé speaks in Brighton on the israeli genocide & how Gaza is the epicentre of a breakdown of int’l order and humanity’s darkest moment

[Muhammad Mazen @mhmd_s09]

I've received over 50 threatening messages from Zionists because of the videos I posted documenting the brutal crimes committed by Israel in Gaza.

I need your support and kind words to continue until my last breath 🇵🇸

[Iqbal Mohamed MP @iqbalmohamedMP]

Today there was an urgent question in Parliament on the situation in Lebanon.

I asked the Minister for the Middle East and North Africa whether this Government will take any real action to stop Israel's genocidal war of death and destruction in Lebanon and Gaza.

In response, he falsely accused me of deploying language that echoed antisemitic tropes.

I would argue that it is he who needs to watch his language as conflating the abhorrent crimes of this Netanyahu administration and the IDF with all Jewish people is actually antisemitic.

#genocide

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Israel announces that surviving Palestinians will be expelled from Gaza.

No headlines.

No statements of outrage from politicians.

Silence.

[Abubaker Abed @AbubakerAbedW]

Israel yesterday kidnapped four women. Two are footballers in the Palestinian National Team.

Their names are: Natali Abu Dia and Rand Halwani.

Is it normal to kidnap footballers, @FIFAcom? Where are sports media organisations? This story should be the headline everywhere.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Nigel Farage didn't comment on this, not once.

He didn't even comment on it when one of his Councillors was fired by Reform for celebrating this attack.

Not a single word because the offender was the WHITE type of offender.

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

❓Do you think the UK government should investigate the activities of British nationals who have served for Israel amid the Gaza genocide❓

I remember when Zack Polanski RT'd a person criticising the Police's excessive use of force.

He was publicly condemned by the MET Chief as if he had committed a serious crime.

Nigel Farage incites riots, AGAIN, and we have complete silence.

[Diane Abbott @HackneyAbbott]

Peole are denying the reality of racism in policing, just as the Met has done ever since the Macpherson report.
Now there is even the outlandish claim that two tier policing discriminates against white people - turning reality upside down.

[David Aaronovitch @DAaronovitch]

Barely a month ago this man was imprisoned for the violent rape of a Sikh woman believing that she was a Muslim. No Douglas Murray articles in the Spectator, no Baroness Fox speech in the Lords. No riots. Two tier? Too right https://t.co/8wABWe3bww

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

Earlier this year, Declassified UK revealed that over 2,000 Britons have served for Israel since October 2023.

Now Declassified UK and @ICJPalestine are launching a major campaign to demand that the UK government investigate the activities of British nationals who have served for Israel amid the Gaza genocide.

UN Special Rapporteur @profbensaul in 2024: "Germany & the United States supply 99% of the weapons exported to Israel. They could stop this conflict overnight if they stopped the weapons that kill the Palestinians"

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Sarah Everard was kidnapped, raped and murdered by a WHITE Police Officer.

Nigel Farage called for calm.

But when he can use racism he calls for Cold, Hard, Rage.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

BREAKING - A Swiss Tribunal recognises the legitimate right to peacefully oppose the ongoing genocide in Palestine.

One again: justice for Palestine starts at home. It only takes people caring and applying Intl Law. And persevering.

[Diane Abbott @HackneyAbbott]

Black people are almost 9 times likely to be stopped and searched, 5 times more likely to have force used against them. Much more likely to be charged and to be refused bail - National Police Chiefs' Council.
Real discrimination. Real two tiers.

@DanaPalubiak It amazes me that some people don’t think holistically or contextually about teaching human beings. It’s as though they arrive in school like little universal packages, it’s reductionist. In Alternative Provision in UK we fed breakfast & cooked lunch for free, food was integral.
