Zet hem op, Kemi.

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me.

Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true.

Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response.

I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth.

The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts.

I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse.

So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.

King Charles: unyielding resolve is needed for the defence of Ukraine. The King praised support for NATO & the alliance’s invocation of its Article 5 collective defence treaty in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

“We answered the call together, as our people have done so for more than a century, shoulder to shoulder through two world wars, the Cold War, Afghanistan and moments that have defined our shared security,” he said.
He then turned to funding for Ukraine, an increasingly pointed issue in the Republican-controlled US Congress.

“Today, Mr Speaker, that same unyielding resolve is needed for the defence of Ukraine and her most courageous people,” he said, referring to House Speaker Mike Johnson.

Wow. Everyone should watch this.

Have yet to see a more articulate description of antizionism than this one by @kdeutschjourno.

Crystal clear. Well done.

Ok, @eddy_terstall was onlangs jarig en ik wil hem graag een verfilming van het tweede deel van Het Land van Johan schenken. Dat kan ik niet betalen, dus nu moeten jullie allemaal als de sodemieter inloggen op Pathé Thuis en kijken naar deel 1. Cheers!

@BartNijman Misschien wel zo zuiver om dan ook even de opkomst te vermelden, aangezien maar 1/3 van de kiesgerechtigden naar de stembus is gekomen.

🚨: Astronaut’s Wake-Up Call from Space

After spending 178 days aboard the International Space Station, astronaut Ron Garan returned to Earth with a realization that shook him — we’re living a lie.

From orbit, he saw our planet as one glowing blue sphere — no borders, no nations, no divisions — just a single, fragile home floating in the vast darkness. Yet down here, we live as if we’re separate, fighting over lines that don’t even exist from space.

He watched lightning storms flicker like heartbeat pulses, auroras dance across the poles, and a thin blue atmosphere shielding all life — a reminder of how delicate our world truly is.

Garan says humanity’s priorities are upside down: we’ve put the economy first, when it should be Planet → Society → Economy. Because without a thriving planet, nothing else survives.

His message is clear and urgent — 🌎 Earth is our shared spaceship. We are not passengers… we are crew.

And it’s time we start acting like it.

[Masih Alinejad 🏳️ @AlinejadMasih]

A woman cuts her hair at her sister’s funeral in #Iran, because the regime shot her sister in the head.
Let me be clear with Western female politicians, especially those in leadership positions in Europe: Do not cut your hair in symbolic solidarity with Iranian women. Cut your ties with our killers.
Believe me cutting your hair for Instagram solidarity, doesn’t scare dictators. It doesn’t save lives. It just makes you feel better. Stop legitimizing our terrorist regime.

Her name was Melika Dastyab.
She was 21, a musician, economics student and she was dead by security forces while her sister stood next to her.

That’s not a hashtag.
That’s a crime against humanity.

Stel je voor: ’s nachts –20 graden en overdag nog steeds –12. Dat is bijna niet voor te stellen. Toch is dit de realiteit voor veel mensen in Oekraïne. Door de voortdurende bombardementen van Rusland op energievoorzieningen zitten veel mensen zonder gas en stroom en dus ook zonder verwarming. Dat is heftig. Maar we hebben gezien dat het nóg erger kan.

In deze extreme kou zijn er ook mensen die helemaal geen huis hebben. Vaak krijgen ze maar één keer per dag wat warme soep met een stukje brood. Tijdens deze actie hebben we veel daklozen een beetje kunnen verwennen met rozijnenbrood en allerlei lekkers.

Op een pleintje in Kyiv werden we al herkend aan onze bussen van eerdere acties. Nog voordat we begonnen met uitdelen stond er al een flinke rij. Speciaal vanwege dit extreme weer hebben we ook extra dikke winterjassen uitgedeeld.

Hoe koud wij het zelf al hadden na een middag uitdelen, liet ons extra beseffen hoe zwaar het leven voor deze mensen moet zijn, elke dag opnieuw. Iets kunnen betekenen in zulke omstandigheden voelt echt als een voorrecht. Dit was een ontzettend mooie en waardevolle actie om te mogen doen.

@FT So let me get this straight - Ukraine is supposed to give up the fortress belt in the Donbas in exchange for what exactly? Another unenforceable piece of paper? Signed by Trump and Putin of all people? « For shure »
