My first thought was:

Has Kemi Badenoch been speaking to the press again?

Prominent Al Jazeera journalist killed in Israeli airstrike on Gaza Anas al-Sharif, known for frontline coverage, died with three colleagues in an attack outside al-Shifa hospital

The continued, deliberate killing of journalists is yet one more reason why Israel should be treated as a rogue state and ostracised from the international community.

How much of Gaza is left standing? Analysis by independent researchers reveals the scale of the destruction

β€œThe studies imply that estimated life expectancy [in Gaza has fallen by more than 35 years, to half the pre-war figure. In percentage terms…bigger than…during China’s Great Leap Forward; in absolute terms it is similar to the one in the Rwanda genocide”

At some stage, someone in the government needs to look at the Palestine Action situation in purely pragmatic terms: is proscription specifically achieving any of the goals they wanted it to, or is it proving entirely counterproductive?

When I was young and naive I thought terrorism looks like someone detonating a car bomb or crashing planes into skyscrapers. Now that I'm mature and educated I know that terrorism actually looks like an old lady holding a sign saying people should be allowed to oppose genocide.

Whilst the police in London arrest blind pensioners in Wheelchairs for being anti-genocide, in Portsmouth the leader of UKIP makes a nazi salute at an anti migrant demo and the police do nothing. Welcome to Britain 2025.

More BBC News headlines inducing cognitive dissonance:

Anti-genocide protestors β€˜arrested’ - bad people

Gazans β€˜die’ from β€˜malnutrition’ - not starved to death by IDF

Racist anti-migration protestors β€˜are angry’ - good, concerned people

Truly the upside down.

A total disgrace of a paper.
A total disgrace of a man.

I would worry for Jenrick’s daughters too, being brought up by a hate-mongering opportunist, driven mad by Tory failure and now desperate to whip up prejudice, division and social unrest in his vile pursuit of power.

Police stations across London are filled with blind wheelchair users and diabetic pensioners and ex-servicemen and hundreds of previously law abiding citizens because their government suddenly decided to class them as terrorists. This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Missed a focal point to be honest. Mount played 1st half as false 9 leading the press ok. Put Mbuemo up top with Mount on right for 2nd half. Cunha then played last spell up top after Mbuemo off, Mount went to left. Ref didn't help - let their #5 away with a lot of contact/fouls.
