I am a constituent of Wes Streeting MP. His local office staff and caseworkers help thousands of local people each year. I am appalled that so called “Trans Rights” extremist scum have attacked and vandalised his constituency office. I hope the police arrest and prosecute those responsible.

Hamas is an antisemitic Death cult dedicated to wiping out the Jewish state. A two state solution of a secure Israel and a viable Palestine is against the interests of both Hamas and Iran. Netanyahu and his far right Israel government are stupid to attack Keir Starmer and other friends of Israel.

Screenshot from Pippa Crerar on X: “Khan spox: “Sadiq is delighted that President Trump wants to come to the greatest city in the world. “He’d see how our diversity makes us stronger not weaker; richer, not poorer. "Perhaps these are the reasons why a record number of Americans have applied for British citizenship under his Presidency.””

They already have my face so I’ve no objection to giving that. And it is better on here than the antisemitic sewer with its fake Putinoid trolls.

RIP the great genius Tom Lehrer. It is very fitting that I have already bought tickets and will be able to pay respects to him by attending two tribute shows of his music at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe next month.

I rejoined Labour in 2023 because Starmer was serious about taking a consistent and strong stand against antisemitism. It does not matter whether you are an individual member or a high profile MP. If you make provocative antisemitic remarks there should be no place for you in the Labour Party.
