This is one of the strangest and most screwed-up stories I’ve worked on. www.londoncentric.media/p/tiktok-lon...
Who's secretly filming fake TikToks inside Londoners' homes?
We tracked down the viral video account invading people's houses to spread false claims about immigrants.

I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.

Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

What words remain for a government that goes to court to insist it be allowed to continue selling weapons to a state committing genocide, then sends a letter of complaint when those weapons are used?

Will we stop sending weapons to Israel? Will we stop funding illegal settlements in the West Bank? Will we impose a trade boycott? Will we actually *do* anything?
I asked at today's No 10 briefing about AFP's warning that their staff in Gaza are too weak to work and are in clear danger of starving to death, and what more the UK government could do to stop this. This was the reply.

After the media damage is inflicted and seen by millions of eyes,you receive a private email to say there's no evidence and no action,seen by two people only

There's no public apology. They don't send this to media or post it on police accounts

We will continue to fight.

We will continue to win.

The police (wrongly) inform a peaceful protestor that holding a Palestinian flag and signs deploring genocide is an offence under the Terrorism Act. This is the deranged policing environment the government has created.
Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

A very powerful essay by Holocaust scholar Omer Bartov, arguing that:
a) Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, and
b) denying this threatens to "undermine everything that Holocaust scholarship and commemoration have stood for."

Welsh First Minister goes further on Gaza than I’ve heard any senior Labour figure go. Eluned Morgan says she defers to Helena Kennedy in her view that Israel is engaged in genocidal behaviour against Palestinians.
"We want to see the end to a situation where innocent people are being starved."

Welsh First Minister Eluned Morgan aligns with Baroness Helena Kennedy's view that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

Surreal is the right word.

Two completely indistinguishable positions on small boats from a Tory & a Labour MP on Newsnight yesterday.

Neither one of them capable of making a case that stands up to the slightest logical pushback. Pathetic.

Rachel Shabi having to explain that 'death to the IDF' is not antisemitic is a sign of how far the smears have gone. And Rachel is right, there are dangerous consequences to that.

This is extremely significant. Former 🇮🇱 Prime Minister Ehud Olmert (2006-9) wrote in a May 22 Haaretz op-ed that Israel is:

🔴 intentionally waging a war of annihilation
🔴 premeditatedly adopting a policy of starvation
🔴 massacring civilians
🔴 making declarations of genocide
