I knew this was going to be framed this way to drive clicks🙄—The report also said Maduro was studying the Quran, has lost significant weight, and receiving inadequate nutrition, while his wife Cilia suffered a heart attack, sleep deprivation & tooth decay. But instead of scrutinizing torturous conditions in MDC, the focus is on sensationalizing “interest in Judaism”😑

The moment the poppy extended to commemorate all “fallen soldiers” (including the cold blooded murderers), this was inevitable and should be expected

All poppies are virtue signalling. If you weren't intending to signal your virtue, you would simply make a donation to the RBL without the need to signal anything.

I recently learned that bisexuals were once banned from the London Lesbian and Gay Centre because some lesbians felt that bisexual men would harass them. This flagrant act of bigotry, of course, has absolutely no parallels to anything going on within the queer community today.

They should actually just go to Liverpool and pick a random guy off the street

If you ever feel stupid just remember there's some people that believe this article

When do we get a law making it illegal for Daily Mail contributors to identify as journalists

Anita Bryant campaigning against lesbian & gay rights in 178? Nope. This is Kathleen Stock writing in Unherd THIS WEEK. Anti trans activists were always going to come after gay people.

The study you linked doesn't support this hypothesis either, and you have not evidenced this supposedly causal link between 'pornographic sexual scripting' and the prevalence of certain sex acts. You're legislating off of vibes Jess

A lot of people claiming to be "left wing" but also fighting extra hard to use wh-te supremacist language

🇵🇱🇪🇺 What the hell is going on in Poland? TL;DR: a fight over who runs the country's Constitutional Tribunal, the court that checks whether laws respect the constitution. 🔹️In March, Parliament elected new judges. President Nawrocki refused to swear in some of them, and the Tribunal's chief, Bogdan Święczkowski, has not let them sit. 🔹️Today, one of them, Anna Korwin-Piotrowska, posted an order on the Tribunal's website suspending the chief and his deputy for one month. She accuses them of keeping elected judges out and mishandling how cases are assigned. 🔹️ The Tribunal's official X account calls this an illegal takeover of its website. It says the chief is still in charge and that she is not a legitimate judge. 🔹️Police are guarding the grounds after a tense protest outside, with objects thrown and three people detained. Police has not entered the building. Nawrocki cut short a trip to Senegal to return. Tune out the noise of sensationalist headlines and misinformation aimed at destabilising the country: neither Parliament nor the judiciary has been taken over, and the army is not involved. The crisis is serious, but there have been no violent clashes nor it represents a coup. yahoo.com/news/articles/poli…

Legitimately half our MPs are just very stupid and sheltered people

RIP Patrick Stewart

On top of this, those who lack any valid form of ID - or rightly do not want to hand over their information to tech companies - will be shut out of the online world entirely. This is a catastrophic policy that won't work.

🚨🇬🇧 Turning Point UK's CEO was filmed offering an undercover reporter a menu of beatings, stabbings and killings through a Glasgow contact who says he arms the UVF Al Jazeera’s undercover operation started in 2021 when a reporter joined the British offshoot of the American student group. Its CEO Jack Ross, a Conservative candidate in 2023, introduced the reporter to Allan Nesbitt, a convicted criminal and self-described UVF member, agreed on camera to pay him to stage a fake pro-Zimbabwe rally, and priced out what Nesbitt’s friends could do to a person, from cutting faces to MURDER. The UVF is the Ulster Volunteer Force, a Protestant loyalist paramilitary from Northern Ireland’s Troubles that killed over 500 people between 1966 and 1999, including 33 in one day in the Dublin and Monaghan bombings, and is still banned as a terror group. Since the peace deal it has run mostly as a drug gang that kept the name and the guns. Nesbitt reportedly met the reporter in a London hotel, offered to have a fictional business rival “finished,” claimed he’d personally stabbed a man to death, showed a shotgun and pistol on a video call and said the fee would buy weapons smuggled from Scotland into Northern Ireland. Ross says it was a joke. The joke came with a price list, a weapons demo and a smuggling route, and the police now have a name and a video... and wasn't particularly funny. Somebody in Turning Point UK’s donor base should be asking when the fundraising dinners turned into this. Source: Al Jazeera / Writer: Daniel

🚨NEW: The Online Safety Act has been a failure, according to a new report from Ofcom. Ofcom have found "no significant change" in children encountering harmful content since the law came into effect last July. This is despite the signifigant threats to free speech and privacy.

In a short while, Secretary of State for Education, @LucyMPowell will present the Sir David Bell review into antisemitism in schools and colleges. This review is billed as the 'Independent review into antisemitism in schools and colleges'. I've spoken to a number of individuals and organisations that submitted evidence to the Bell Review when the call for views from people with relevant lived experience, knowledge or expertise of antisemitism in schools and colleges went out earlier this year. A number of them have gotten back to me to relay their horror and dismay that the review seems overly focussed on issues such as the presence of Palestine solidarity badges and other imagery in schools rather than the multitude of clear examples where Jewish students have been targeted with antisemitic abuse, discrimination and hatred. It appears that the review is coming down hard on expressions of Palestine solidarity while being rather light on pupils who do Hitler salutes or make jokes about Jews and money. Having done a little research I do also have some serious concerns as to the impartiality of this review and also the recommendation that schools adopt the IHRA definition of antisemitism despite it not being possible to make this compulsory, nor is it legally actionable. If we care about tackling antisemitism in society, ensuring we get to it where it manifests in our schools and among young people, then we need to put a stop to the weaponisation of antisemitism and its use for political football where Israel-Palestine is concerned. This review is fundamentally biased, ideological, and linked to efforts to tie Jewish identity with support for Israel while suppressing pro-Palestine expression as 'antisemitic' and intimidating for Jews. The reality of course is that young Jews in the UK are way more intimidated and frightened by their classmates doing Hitler salutes, making jokes about the Holocaust, doing gas sounds towards them because they're Jewish, being physically assaulted for being Jewish, being bullied and isolated for being Jewish, being sexually assaulted (reports of kids demanding to see the circumcised penis of a Jewish school child in year 8), and all the other antisemitic shit that is happening in our schools. I'm also reminded of what we learned from the documentary film @IsraelismFilm about the efforts to indoctrinate young Jews into seeing Israel as integral to their identity as Jews, that when Israel is criticised they are being personally attacked as Jews, and that they can only see themselves as Jewish if they support and love Israel. Anyway, below are some very serious issues relating to Sir David Bell, his lack of impartiality, and the failure to declare vested interests of himself and a number of those on the reference group: - David Bell's role as a permanent secretary at the department of education was not disclosed as a conflict of interest. - David Bell is named on the national council of the 'National Study Group', an educational charity, that in its mission statement says that its goal is to "initiate or expand active links and research collaboration between academics, specialists and centres-of-excellence in the UK and their counterparts in Israel." The ASG is "primarily a UK-Israel operation" and rather worryingly the "only issue on which ASG has firm policy is opposition to BDS. The Charity is totally committed to the universality of knowledge and rejects any disruption to cross-national co-operation." - The ASG, of which Sir David Bell is named as a member of national council, provides educational talks about Israel to schools. - Executive director of the ASG, John D.A. Levy, is on the advisory board of Academic Friends of Israel and a separate charity, the friends of Israel educational foundation. - The Friends of Israel Educational Foundation carries out hundreds of school talks in the UK. 1/?
