It must be confusing and heartbreaking in equal measure for young people waking up to a myriad of ecological, social, economic and political crises to realise that that very awareness is presented by those in/with power as the world's most pressing problem.
It's weird how, although he's obviously a vile antisemite, Jeremy Corbyn has never actually said or done anything that exhibits prejudice against Jewish people and has consistently spoken out and taken action against such predudice.

Bizarre that there are still people who are more concerned about the threat of a fascist takeover from November onwards. It's happening now.
Those who claim Michael Gove was quietly going about his day as a private citizen are either stupid or lying. He staged a one-man counterdemonstration and was not physically attacked. He's far too snobbish to march with the EDL, but his worldview is a dressed-up version of theirs
@dirk1978
That's so much worse than repeatedly endorsing a holocaust denier and giving him space in your newspaper and also repeatedly giving someone who's repeatedly praised nazis space in your magazine.

The idea that octopuses are a well-known antisemitic symbol was a lie, but Zionists don't actually care about combatting antisemitism, they actually incite it so as to promote Israel.

Last time I came through Gatwick there were signs saying they were taking care to look out for returning foreign fighters. This one will surely be detained.
The likes of Andrew Tate, Russell Brand and Lawrence Fox have taught young men like the one in Croydon that they have an automatic right to women's affections and bodies.

Tbf that isn't the core of the British far-right, it's merely the cannon fodder. The generals are in the offices of the Times, Spectator, Telegraph, Talk TV etc etc etc.
I'm learning a lot about the kind of people who still follow this guy in 2024. And on that subject, I wonder what an actual neonazi sees in the work of respectable political commentator
@douglaskmurray
. Perhaps they've got much more in common than is generally acknowleged.
@MarinaHyde
Climate breakdown, fascism resurging, western governments funding and arming genocide, and yet this is the time to argue that art should have no political role.
Centrists are turning into fascists overnight.

Here is Luke Akehurst with his near namesake, political ally, literal protegé and close friend Lukey Stanger. And here is a photo of Luke Stanger posing proudly with the flag of the Red Hand Gang, a secretive, proscribed loyalist terrorist group which committed dozens of murders.
@GarySpedding
It's bizarre that Akehurst is standing for Labour. Not only is he an apologist for genocide, he's part of the apparatus which enables it to take place.
@BarnabyRaine
Largely for snobbish reasons, they've tried to exclude Tommy Robinson. They've done no such thing wrt Douglas Murray or Katie Hopkins. It's the UK equivalent to the Paris March led by Marine Le Pen.
@patrickwintour
Even Netanyahu acknowleges that meaningful and useful comparisons can and should be made between what the Nazis did and what the Zionists are doing.

I just looked on his website, this guy spends his life raising money to buy guns and bombs for the IOF (and probably skims off a good few dollars for himself). He's no Christian.

It's absolutely incredible that Donald Trump was able to become President and will probably do so again. It's even more absolutely incredible that his opponents have somehow proven to be even worse than him.
@lmharpin
Is it being bombed? Oh no, it's doing the bombing.
Who called Muslim councillors 'fleas', Lee? Which of your many racist friends are you protecting? If it's Luke Akehurst, give no sign.

@NUJofficial
Brilliant. The alliance between Jewish racists like the guy in your video and neonazis like Robinson is very, very telling. Neither of them is an ally of ordinary Jewish people. In fact, by insisting that all Jew be associated with Israel they deliberately put Jews in danger.
As a Black woman, and someone on the left of the Labour Party, I have unfortunately been forced to reach the conclusion that I will not get a fair hearing from this Labour leadership.
@Taj_Ali1
"We have now realised that genocide is unpopular, so we don't support it any more, is that OK" is not a good look.
The entire leadership has to go now. It's that serious.
This is not a PR problem.

hasn't covered this given how hypervigilant it was about covering Labour antisemitism up until January 2020.
@crampell
Are you a big supporter of the free press? It's just that over a hundred journalists and their entire families have been murdered in cold blood and you've said absolutely nothing.
@SkyNews
Corbyn is unique in British politics in that he sticks to a set of principles. The violent reaction he inspired was partly due to his showing all the rest of them up. Starmer would happily ship his own wife to the Gestapo in return for a sniff of power.

And this is an actual genuine statement signed by actual Jewish creatives, not that absolute nonsense that Variety posted in an absolute dereliction of journalistic duty.

This is the Geneva Convention.
We will need a Nuremberg-style tribunal for all the politicians supporting the Israeli genocide.
