@PonsonbyMassie Surely we need a crowdfunder to buy the Murrell Collection, put it in the camper van, and tour it around the country so everyone can have a look? Like the Travelling Gallery, but for venality rather than art.

The Government is not to blame for antisemitism. It is cheap, dangerous and unserious to allow that perception to spread. More importantly, our community doesn't exist in a vacuum. Tice came fresh from media interviews where he couldn't be moved to criticise a joke about melting down Nigerians and using them to fill potholes. And we wonder why self-declared anti-racists don't step up as allies? This strategy is disastrous.

[Marlon Solomon @supergutman]

Sorry but this one is antisemitic.

[Peter Hague @peterrhague]

This feels like getting Al Capone for tax evasion

[Board of Deputies of British Jews @BoardofDeputies]

Caricaturists and their editors must take care that their depictions of Jews in public life do not wade into centuries old anti-Jewish tropes.

We have seen a number of examples of political cartoons published depicting Zack Polanski that are a cause for concern.

We call on publications to show the utmost vigilance and stringency on these issues.

Repellent and, for good measure, lunatic.

Two Jews stabbed in Golders Green.
Looking forward to hearing all about how this latest act of "anti-Zionism" is just the sort of thing you have to expect these days and how British Jews are exaggerating their "perception of unsafety".
Enough.

[Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs) @agraybee]

Lol this completely falls apart when you say Zionists have white privilege, unless you're willing to argue that a Black guy won't get followed around a store if he wants a two state solution.

[Not a Good Jewish Girl✡️ @estherzelda0514]

The only real difference between left- and right-wing antisemitism is that the right knows that it is citing the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, whereas the left does not.

[Dr Katie Musgrave @dr_musgrave]

Teenage boy with autism euthanised in the Netherlands.

I think this is wrong. 😥

Takeaway point: “Assisted suicide and euthanasia regimes quickly become dangerous for the most vulnerable people in society: the sick, the disabled, and the elderly.”

Neither of these men had any reason to believe Jews in North London had been involved in a nefarious conspiracy to set fire to their own ambulances yet they were perfectly happy to share that belief publicly without shame, even imagining themselves victims rather than persecutors

[Elizabeth Tsurkov @LizHurra]

Dani Elgarat's brother Itzik was kidnapped by Hamas on Oct 7. According to testimonies of a released hostage & the autopsy of Itzik's recovered body, he was tortured to death by Hamas interrogators. Dani was one of the prominent figures in the struggle of the families of the Oct 7th hostages to get their relatives freed through a deal.
Now, Dani is using his voice to raise awareness about violent settlers displacing Palestinians in the West Bank.

[Stephen Knight 🎙️ @GSpellchecker]

Ah yes, those sneaky Jews. At it again. Setting up volunteer-run, charity-funded ambulance services that treat anyone in the area. Truly, no depths they won’t sink to.

@ZoeJardiniere @UKTogetherAll @JewishSocialist @DawnButlerBrent @ZackPolanski Foxes marching against attacks on henhouses 🤔

[David Baddiel @Baddiel]

Wondering if the hearts of those frustrated by small acts of petty symbolism, by the feeling that smashed windows and graffiti on bakeries are simply not enough, are cheered by the upgrade to burning ambulances this morning.

Do you know why @HeidiBachram gets abuse from people like Owen Jones?
Do you know what she did?

Her husbands family were attacked, their 18 year old daughter Ma’ayan was killed and the family held and streamed live. They were crying, shocked, bloodied.
Tsachi the father was taken hostage and murdered in Gaza.

Every week Heidi and Adam hold memorial ceremonies for the murdered and terrorised people of Israel. They prayed for the kidnapped and celebrated their return.
They’ve documented Jew hate in the constant marches. They’ve been threatened. Their memorial desecrated.

That’s why she’s attacked
Because she cares
Because she won’t shut up
Because she won’t blame the Jews for their own murder and pain

That is the by Owen hates her
That’s why we love her and Adam
Because they’re proud, strong and kind.

That’s all
I just like to remind the world why Heidi is targeted

@naomicfisher Are you making money off this or something?

[Nicky Clark @MrsNickyClark]

The fight for access to diagnosis for women & girls for a neurodevelopment disability (which was seen as being present in only boys and men) has been long & hard won.
Seeing privileged feminists deciding to deconstruct the work of women -many autistic women is horrible & shameful

[Sweet Anita @sweetanita]

People with tourette's are twice as likely to be violently assaulted than the general public.
women with TS are 4 times more likely to be targeted by sexual violence. 1 in 4 of us try to kill ourselves. over half self harm.
The stereotype that we are secretly evil people who use Tourette's to get away with being an asshole is literally life threatening to us. So fuck SNL.
I'm tired of spending my life begging for understanding. I have to rely on public attiutudes just to have basic rights. Just to leave the house, to use a bus, to eat at a restaurant, to go to work, use a public restroom, ANYTHING. People are calling for us to be segregated! I spend 8 years teaching millions of people about this only to still feel like we are at square one.

@StanCollymore If only there was a film they could watch to learn about his condition and his consequences.
