For the benefit of Starmer, Barnett and all the other pro-genocide voices. Isaeli violence in Palestine has been on going for over 70 years. It did not start on the 7 October 2023.

Jenrick really is a deeply unpleasant, nasty bigot isn't he? If the Tories switch to having him as leader they will really be scraping the very bottom of the barrel of hate.

Whatever you do, please don’t share this video, because it might upset the BBC, Nigel Farage & his fellow Brexiteers.

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism.

The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us.

The Greens say enough is enough.

Robert Jenrick complained of ‘not seeing another white face’ in part of Birmingham

Shadow justice secretary criticised for suggesting he could tell how integrated Handsworth was based on 90-minute visit Robert Jenrick complained about visiting an area of Birmingham where he “didn’t see another white face” and said it was not the kind of country he wanted to live in. After highlighting the lack of white people, the shadow justice secretary said it was not about “the colour of your skin or your faith” and he wanted people to live alongside each other.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

I find it highly offensive & disrespectful for a man who said that he’s an “unapologetic Zionist” to accuse students of being “un-British” because they oppose genocide committed by a country that doesn’t want Israeli children living alongside Palestinian children. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
