On a purely factual point, Trevor Phillips’s column in the Times misrepresents our reporting in casting doubts on claims that there were more boys called Patel than Smith at Dulwich in 1980 (we did not report 1976 as the year it occurred). 1980 roll shows 13 Patels and 12 Smiths.

A constant blazing terror that somewhere, somebody might be getting a free cheese sandwich. Or indeed brief use of a wheelchair.

Israel is still killing Palestinians despite the mainstream media pretending otherwise...
Israel (& the west) keeps deploying this tactic: insist on a 'ceasefire' with Palestinians making huge concessions, then carry on the killing regardless.
This short thread shows the same thing happening today, 3 months ago, 7 months ago and 8 months ago... 🧵

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

All delegates will be able to attend fringe programme as party tries to find compromise while complying with supreme court ruling on gender

The Government says these reforms are “for councils”, but councils themselves are warning they will cause real harm.
Southwark Council’s leader has said the Government’s new asylum plans are “deeply concerning” — increasing homelessness, traumatising children, and separating families.
