You poor boy, reality is too much for you. Muting you now.

If your heart bleeds only for atrocities against one ethnicity, you are deeply in the trap of murderous nationalist Islamist supremacists. Muting you now

I know this is uncomfortable to admit, but there is a small area in England's second city where people are just not integrated with the rest of society. Many of them hold views that arguably go against British values.

Yes, we need to talk about the Tory conference in Manchester.

My column this week: on a world in which your lifeboat seems ever more necessary- but ever more unappealing:

Israel seems more important — and less desirable — than ever for British Jews

Amid rising antisemitism at home, our lifeboat abroad seems less attractive

The antisemitism count has been high again today. I think it may deserve a place in the weather forecast, before or after the air quality.

So because the Israeli government (which is not 'Israel') and some of its military has treated Palestinian life as cheap or worthless, you feel entitled to withhold respect and compassion from Israelis today? Well, do what you like, but don't think of yourself as pro-peace, because you aren't.

Oh you're just another militant Palestine maximalist nationalist then? Dull. Wrong. Ignorant

Agree, you don't get to control language. And I am saying this means if some are going to be inspired to violence by a call you are normalising, and you keep on using it, you're part of the problem.

Just to be clear, is it Israel you have a problem with, or the Israeli government? If the second I'm with you. If the first, it's weird to wish elimination on other people's countries

Fewer than 15% of UK MPs knew emissions must peak by 2025, raising questions about climate communication

Good responses to Jenrick. Handsworth residents are very diverse and perfectly well integrated, getting on with their lives like anyone else. So excuse us for considering his comments as about skin colour, which he explicitly mentioned, and yes racist. Let's talk about Conservative social policy

I don't think Robert Jenrick realises that the people clapping along to him when he talks about Handsworth would clap along if he said the same about Stamford Hill. I'd hope that would give him pause for thought.

I do take Palestine demos today as expressions of support for the October 7th atrocities, and I do assume the people attending are either clueless or active supporters. I do consider 'Globalise the intifada' to be inciteful, and certainly as outrageous as 'Gllobalise the nakbah' would be.
