At my second #Lab26 fringe meeting today, I’m with @progbrit and the Association of Optometrists discussing ‘Health outside the Hospital’ - providing more community-based health and prevention work.

.@RahmEmanuel (D) on peace in the Middle East and his 2009 discussion with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu: "What you're doing on the housing policies on the West Bank will lead to the political isolation of the state of Israel and perpetual conflict."

I’m very excited to share that my new book 'Control: how we lost it and how to take it back' will be published by Biteback on 3rd November. Based on my experiences inside politics and people who have had a loss of control, it is a plan to put us more in control of what matters

CST has seen the news that the arrests of two men in Manchester on Sunday, shortly before the start of Yom Kippur, was allegedly related to what police believe was a plot to attack the Manchester Jewish community. This is utterly chilling, coming so close to the anniversary of the terrorist attack at Heaton Park Synagogue last year, and is another reminder of the serious terrorist threat facing Jewish communities in this current time. We have been in close communication with police in Manchester and around the country throughout Yom Kippur, as we are continuously as part of our security operation over the High Holy Days. We want to thank the police and other agencies for their work protecting the Jewish community, and British society as a whole, from terrorism. We urge the Jewish community to remain calm and alert, and to report any suspicious activity to police on 999 and then to CST.

I understand that the Committee of the Jewish Greens group has now been taken over by anti-Zionists, backed by former Corbynite/JVL cadres. Hence this in their 'pre-Yom Kippur message', clearly intended to soften up the ground for the hideous "Zionism is Racism" motion this week

Very sad to hear Bonnie Greer has died. A powerful wordsmith and artist, she was eloquent and exacting. A true life force. I will never forget her quiet fearlessness taking on Nick Griffin on Question Time. I will miss her mentorship, and her friendship. Rest in peace, Bonnie.
