West Midlands Police last week banned Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from an upcoming game against Aston Villa - due to public safety concerns. Days later those same fans are involved in a riot at a game in their own country.

What a mad world. 93% of the US stock market is owned by just 10% of the population. And theyβre not just collecting wealth beyond the dreams of avarice - theyβre collecting power, owning media, social media, buying politicians and policy.

Why does this tax exile 'foreigner' think our government should discuss policy with him? He should feck off back to Monaco. Made his choice based on his own interest, to avoid tax. Anything he has to say will be only in his own interests,Β again.

We donβt expect perfection - we just hope for honesty, admitting (and learning from) mistakes, and understanding subconscious bias. This last, most of all.

Heseltine at the Tory conf:
"Fascists of the 30s are back... Trump's language coincides with words here... The immigrant has replaced the Jew as the problem. We must make clear we will never have any part in the populist extremism of Farage... We don't need Trump's mouthpiece anywhere near No. 10.β
I sang Jerusalem with Robert Jenrick at school - he's wrong about race β’ NEW The Conservative MP has complained that, visiting Handsworth in Birmingham, he didn't see'another white face. You can't judge whether someone is integrated by skin colour, argues fellow Wulfrunian Sathnam Sanghera
I hoped that the outrage about this scandal across the political spectrum demonstrated we were finally moving away from such thinking. But Jenrick's remarks show that we are, in 2025, in an even worse place. The comments are a symptom of a new cult of ethno-nationalism, imported from the USA and supercharged by bad actors on social media. Suddenly, a great many people - including, bizarrely, Suella Braverman - are keen on the racist idea that you simply can't be English and non-white.
We all hoped the Windrush scandal would be shame enough. But no. The Tory party plumbs new depths with its vile rhetoric. Nothing good comes from their prejudice. But our communities prove them wrong every day.

Birmingham, my home city, is a fantastic city, with fantastic people- a success story. It has its problems, like anywhere. But the obsession the online right has with it is as transparent as it gets.
