That the antisemitic entryists who have captured the Green Party, are being antisemitic, is no surprise. That the Party Leader skipped this vote and failed to use his authority to argue against them, is an astonishing act of weakness. Real Greens are welcome in the Lib Demsโ€ฆ

And I just renamed Lake Michigan Lake Wisconsin. See, I can sign napkins that say things, too.
JUST IN: President Trump has signed an executive order changing the name of Lake Ontario to "Lake America." The name change is "effective immediately," Trump said. abcnews.link/82a4Sl7

Churches closing. Clergy cut. Parishes merged. It doesnโ€™t have to be this way. The future of the Church of England lies where it always has: in the local parish, with a priest who knows their people. Read our manifesto. Stand for General Synod. Together, letโ€™s #SaveTheParish

Cambridge Universityโ€™s embattled โ€œacademic superstarโ€, Professor Jason Arday, reported fellow academic Dr David Harris, Professor Emeritus at Plymouth Marjon University, to the police after being challenged over apparent inconsistencies, errors and possible plagiarism in his work. The Committee for Academic Freedom (CAF) has seen the entire correspondence, and it raises troubling questions about the use of harassment law as a shield against awkward scholarly scrutiny in an increasingly litigious, low-trust society.
