As France burns, I must ask: how is this despicable person fit to be a Member of Parliament?

Anyone who still believes that the 'far right' are the problem in the West needs to take one look at France tonight and realise how horriby wrong they are. Stop demonising the wrong people and open your eyes to the real problem.

Rioters in Marseille torched all the Jewish owned shops, while intentionally not attacking the Muslim owned shops. Tell me again how this is about “students”?

🚨🇫🇷 Jordan Bardella just looked a leftist MP dead in the eye and said it without flinching: “It’s because of YOUR friends that thousands of shopkeepers are crying this morning. Their windows are smashed, their businesses looted, their lives wrecked… And you still have the nerve to show up and lecture me." Brilliant and direct. Writer: Samuel x.com/J_Bardella/status/2111…

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.

Are you not embarrassed by your gaslighting @SkyNews ?
Police have clashed with protesters across France. It follows calls for demonstrations against rising living costs, joining high school students who are demanding better education conditions. Sky's @AliBunkallSKY reports from Paris where he says 'French police have not got control of this whatsoever.'

This is the co-leader of the Scottish Greens and a member of the Scottish Parliament. Watch this if you still have any doubts Holyrood should be closed down.

Meet one of the proposers of the Zionism is Racism Green Party motion. Her name is Rebecca Jones and she’s a suspended GP. She once said that a reading of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar’s last will and testament was “beautiful” and posted an Israeli flag on fire saying “Burn Zionism to the ground”. Just to be super clear of the vileness of the motion’s pushers.

I’m old enough to know what happened when the IRA a terrorist organisation who targeted innocent shoppers & school children regularly bombed London & Manchester. Yet they’ve received a pardon whilst we criminalise, & hunt our own soldiers, & we wonder why no one wants to fight for our country!

twitter.com/IsraelMFA/status… The UN is in panic mode after Israel released videos from Gaza’s security cameras showing Hamas employees of UNRWA torturing Gazan civilians to death. Among the prisoners who were killed there are many innocent gay people, journalists, protesters, Christians and anyone suspected of spying or leaving Islam (ex-Muslims). This is what the UN, the international community and the Western media support when they side with Hamas, Gaza’s Health Ministry and UNRWA. Please retweet if you care about human rights!

Tonight the left of British politics seem to want an argument with me about whether men going into women’s toilets is a lawful or unlawful act. I mean it’s a take, but not quite the winning one they think. I’ll say it slowly to help them. Biological sex is the law.
Men using female toilets is unlawful. A woman has a right to confront any man who breaks the law. Enough is enough. Our public institutions have to stop this nonsense and apply the law.

Just a reminder that France recognised the state of "Palestine," banned Israeli ministers from entering France & announced national measures to prohibit trade in goods from Israeli settlements. Pro-Palestine activists still burnt down parts of France. Appeasing them never works.

I think it's inevitable that Jonathan Powell will step down as National Security Adviser. How can he possibly continue in that position when his own wife has publicly supported a proscribed terrorist organisation? The optics are horrific. His position is untenable.
This senior aid to Andy Burnham surely has to be sacked? With his wife clearly being a security risk. mol.im/a/16214595

Britain's Man In Jerusalem Has A Problem At Home Jonathan Powell has spent this month trying to keep Britain's consulate in Jerusalem open. Israel closed it in retaliation after Ed Miliband banned imports from illegal West Bank settlements, and relations between the two countries now sit at their lowest point in decades. Powell, as national security adviser, has become Britain's chief interlocutor in trying to repair that relationship. His wife, meanwhile, has spent this week being investigated by the Metropolitan Police. Sarah Helm wrote on X that she stood with "authors who support Palestine and Palestine Action," a group proscribed as a terrorist organisation since 2025, after protesters allegedly caused £7 million of damage at RAF Brize Norton. More than 3,000 people have been arrested for expressing support for it. Her post has prompted a formal assessment by Scotland Yard. Helm's views on Israel did not begin this week. She has called Gaza a "strange surreal prison" where Palestinians were "imprisoned without charge." She has asked why occupied Palestinians lack the right to resist their occupier when Ukrainians are celebrated for resisting Russia. In 2024 she called for an international force to "drive out Israel's genocidal army" from Gaza. None of this is new information. All of it predates her husband's appointment as the man now representing Britain's interests in Jerusalem. That timeline matters more than her tweet does. Nobody needs to question Helm's right to hold these views, deeply held and publicly stated over years, to ask a separate question: whether anyone in government considered what it meant to place her husband at the centre of Britain's most delicate Israel negotiations in a generation, with his own household this openly aligned against Israel's position on the war. Diplomacy runs on perceived neutrality as much as substance. Israel does not need evidence that Helm's views shaped British policy to conclude that the man negotiating with them sits considerably closer to the other side of the argument than comfort allows. This is the same gap that has defined Powell's tenure from the start. He ran a secret backchannel to a proscribed terrorist group in Syria before his appointment, undisclosed until journalists found it. He held meetings with PLA-linked Chinese officials through his private charity, undisclosed until Parliament tried and failed to ask about them. His developed vetting status has never been confirmed, despite his predecessor's failed vetting triggering the defining scandal of this government. Each time, the pattern is identical. Something relevant to his judgement or his position existed, and nobody weighed it before he was trusted with the brief it touched. Campaign Against Antisemitism has called on Powell to denounce his wife's rhetoric publicly if he wishes to continue in post. That may be the wrong remedy for the wrong problem. Helm is entitled to her opinions regardless of who she married, and demanding a public renunciation from a spouse sets an uncomfortable precedent. The real failure sits with Downing Street, which appears to have handed its most sensitive Israel brief to a man whose household's views on the conflict were already a matter of public record, without pausing to ask whether that was wise. Powell remains in post. The consulate talks continue. Nobody in government has explained why a national security adviser whose wife has spent years comparing Israel's war conduct to an illegal occupation was considered the right person to represent Britain's interests in Jerusalem at the most sensitive moment in that relationship for a generation. The real question here has nothing to do with Sarah Helm. It is whether anyone in Downing Street does due diligence at all. "Campaign Against Antisemitism has called on Powell to denounce his wife's rhetoric publicly if he wishes to continue in post."
