I can't tell you the level of disgust and shame I feel about the events of the last 36 hours. 👇
➡️ Two years of hate parades, given cover by many in Labour, legitimised by last week's recognition of "Palestine", all culminating in yesterday's appalling, but by now sadly foreseeable, antisemitic attack.
➡️ The usual state and much media obfuscation about the killer's origins and motives. This evening we discover he was also on bail for sexual assault. What else might we yet learn?
➡️ Last night's shameful and intimidating pro-Palestine demonstrations.
➡️ Today, a seemingly powerless Home Secretary and Met, unsupported by the London Mayor, pleading with a bunch of leftist agitators not to do the same tomorrow & next weekend.
➡️ A government so out of touch with feeling in the Jewish community that it could send the Deputy PM to say "don't let hate divide us" and expect that to be good enough. David Lammy deserved all the heckling he got this afternoon.
I never imagined that anti-semitism would ever return to Britain, still less in this virulent, dangerous form.
The weakness, appeasement, bad faith, and sheer incompetence of the British state have been on show these last two days as almost never before. We are right to be angry. Yet who is really surprised? And who is going to turn the tide?
@onepeloton why does your website say Tread frames have a 5 yr warranty and your customer service team think that rust on something that isn’t old, and looked after is acceptable?!
@HomeServeUK@BBCWatchdog It was supposed to have been escalated last week. Now I've been told to wait another 48 hours. You can't issue a policy and a price without terms and conditions and you can't then use those terms against your policyholder when they weren't made aware of them in the first place
@HomeServeUK taking Treating Customers (un)Fairly to new depths of disgraceful... especially when that customer is 97 years old and has been a customer of yours for a long time! Litany of errors - rather than trying to make it right, we're just going in circles. .@BBCWatchdog
I’m bored of this. The FA lit the arch after attacks on France, Turkey and Ukraine. They’ve taken stances on BLM and LGBTQ rights, specifically citing support for minority communities. Why don’t those people trying to defend them be honest and say “we don’t think Jews count”.
@martinsykeshaas @danielstorey85@Scienceofsport Will have a listen. This takes us back to the black and white rules. The ball is either out or in, you’re offside or onside, these shouldn’t be difficult decisions to make with a screen in front of you.
