RIP John Edward William d’Ancona CB (May 28, 1935-June 24, 2019). Beloved husband, father, grandfather, public servant, footballer, and patriot. He played for Newcastle and rose to the heights of Whitehall. But love of family came first. There was nobody like you, Dad. Thank you.

[Eli Kowaz - איליי קואז @elikowaz]

Sally Rooney now argues that European fascism is a "boomerang" from Israeli colonial technique, that the AfD and the RN are downstream of the West Bank, and that "the liberation of Palestine really does represent the liberation of the world."

An argument that makes the world's one Jewish state the root of global fascism, and casts its removal as the liberation of humanity, is straight up antisemitism.

The far right she blames on Israel is the heir of the movements that hunted Jews across Europe long before Israel existed. She has worked her way around to holding the Jewish state responsible for the rise of its own persecutors.

Build coalitions, revive internationalism and join – not rejoin – the EU. But be prepared to question your own assumptions, too

Unless you have a personal taste for heritage societies, stop calling yourself a Remainer. You may as well identify politically as a Morris dancer.

In ancient Rome, top oligarchs were 16,000 times wealthier than ordinary citizens. In the US today, the equivalent figure is 136,000.

Concerns about Brighton's WellBN GP surgery were first raised with the NHS in 2020 and the GMC in 2021. Today, in 2026, an independent investigation delivered its highly critical verdict. Gender-distressed children have been failed by the NHS again 👇https://t.co/sbOWGGMzjO

Trump still has more than two and a half years left in office. But you can see that the hunger, the political agility, the ring smarts are deserting him
