GB News presenter Alex Armstrong and commentator Bernadette Spofforth have been ordered to apologise to and pay damages to @MothinAli after suggesting he took part in the racist riots in Leeds in 2024. In reality, he was asked to attend the scene by the police. He then tried to calm the situation and even put himself in danger by trying to stop someone from pushing a wheelie bin into a fire.

At no point in history did Israel have the moral high ground.
Obama, speaking in Northern Ireland this week: Israel "has lost the moral high ground in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."

Netanyahu’s father was born in Poland. His grandfather was born in Russia. Their family name is originally Mileikowsky.
Netanyahu tells Mark Levin that Europeans—not Jews—are colonizers: "We are not on stolen land, this is our historical homeland!" "We're the indigenous people here—we're not the Dutch in Indonesia!" "We're Jews from Judea!" "We're not trying to drive anyone out!" he adds.

Excellent from Sheffield Green Party pointing out reservations working with Labour whilst their government arms a genocide. If Labour chooses to destabilise local councils because they want to play party politics - then they can own the consequences for the city. 👏🏼

Thanks for the support today! I guess because I work on taxing the super-rich this was the BBC’s idea of balance?! Anyway, it got way worse when creepy sexist comments were made about Katie Zacharia

What? So if you express support for Palestine Action and are the wife of Andy Burnham’s national security adviser Jonathan Powell, you get a free pass from the police? But if you’re a retired teacher, you get 27 hours in custody and your home turned over by the police?
No further action to be taken against the wife of the Prime Minister’s national security adviser for support of Palestine Action 3,800+ arrests of people peacefully holding signs, and 36 counter-terror home raids for social media posts have taken place. thenational.scot/news/266465…

They've literally said about banning pride, overturning same-sex marriage and have already banned their councils from flying pride flags. Are you completely insane?
Twinks is overreacting, gay people are not at risk if reform win the election. I'm not even a reform supporter but some people do get carried away with what they think reform would do #bbuk

You & your colleagues, by weaponising antisemitism for factional gain, have undermined the crucial struggle against actual antisemitism. But yeah, continue your smug self congratulations while Jews & Muslims suffer the consequences @bphillipsonMP
Antisemitism is a cancer in our politics. We fought hard to root it out of our party. We will not stand by and watch it infect public life again. theguardian.com/politics/202…

Labour are really showing themselves up. They're comparing those of us demanding an end to the genocide with Reform and Tommy Robinson. Keir Starmer may have gone - but his politics and our Governments commitment to arms licences very much remain. 👇🏽
“We have to call out bad behaviour wherever it exists.” @Len_Duvall challenges the Greens’ ‘Zionism is racism’ motion, Reform’s attack on Sagal Abdi-Wali and Susan Hall speaking at a rally with Tommy Robinson, while acknowledging where Labour’s has faced up to its failures too.

This is huge. Time for all British nationals who served in the IDF to be investigated over possible involvement in war crimes.
🚨NEW: After a months-long investigation, we can reveal that a British national who posed in front of a burning school in Gaza fought for Israel and may have participated in war crimes. An exclusive with @declassifiedUK colleagues: declassifieduk.org/revealed-…
