Brit, European, progressive. If you think persecuting immigrants and asylum seekers improves your life then you are racist. Read books. Be curious. Build bridges, not WALLS. Humans vary, human rights must not. There must be a better way. ANTI FASCIST

As they say, haters gonna hate. A cursory glance at your cv and expertise should shut em up... But you cannot teach those that are not in the class.

It's so desperately sad that ANY criticism of the actions of the Isreali government is automatically labelled as antisemitism.
It's just so wrong.
It makes me very sad. I've been labelled as such for levelling critical comments. And it couldn't be further from the truth.

Nigel Farage now says that any suggestion he's been soft on Putin is "just nonsense".

Here's a quick reminder of what he's said in the past

Just remember that the 'antisemitism' in Amsterdam was a Riot that Maccabi Tel Aviv started and then lost.

And won't it just be convenient to have the excuse to "go in"....

Gotta get those surveyors and theodolites in somehow.

The US is changed beyond recognition without a doubt. The power won and consolidation of it will not be ceded without a fight.
I'm afraid that fight will have to be in the literal sense as opposed to metaphorically.

Just bought your latest book BTW.
Looking forward to it.

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days.

They have worked 12 days in 3 months.

To enter the ballot box is to choose between two visions of Britain. Either the Hate Thy Neighbour politics of Farage/ Jenrick/ Blue Labour - or the Britain you live in and love.

The Royal Navy did it... With a Royal Marine sniper. From a helicopter. One shot in the engine of the drug boat. At 40 knts.
Β£35 million of drugs lifted. With bad guys and Intel.
What Trump is doing is performative.

Because he can't. Too much at risk for him personally.

Trump wants to DOUBLE Argentina's bailout to $40 billion to save his political ally.

Yet he is doing nothing to prevent 15 million Americans from losing their health care and 20 million from seeing a doubling in their premiums.

Is this what TrumpΒ means by America first?

The best way to defeat Reform is for millions of people to hear a version of this message:

"Farage's Brexit made you poorer. Don't let him do it again"

I was sailing in the Canaries in 91. We picked up the panpan message from The Lady Ghislane on the vhf.
We were too far away to be of any use.
