I didn't know he actually fought with them.

Basically, Trump did a β€˜I came to someone else’s wedding wearing a white dress’ at Charlie Kirk’s funeral

Actually Corbyn and Dmowski have too much in common. 😱 Let's say Ed
Davey.

We have a Roman Dmowski street in GdaΕ„sk. Charlie Kirk was a veritable Jeremy Corbyn in comparison.

You seem to be confusing "how America works" with how America works.

19 identical drones, every one unarmed, in a holding pattern for an hour over Belarus before they crossed into Poland, followed a week later by the incursion of three jet fighters into Estonia. If Western intelligence officials remain insure, maybe they should reconsider their career choices.

That's after he's had the secret service defuse the ice cream bombe.

If further proof were required of the "slippery slope" argument, then this is it.

Aktion T4 was a campaign of mass murder by involuntary euthanasia which targeted people with disabilities and the mentally ill in Nazi Germany.

Don't worry, Ben. I have every
confidence that after a couple of weeks locking up peaceful pensioners for holding placards Starmer will somehow summon up the backbone to remain silent in the face of Musk's call to violence.

Two men have raped a Sikh woman, telling her "You don't belong in this country, get out."

This is where the dehumanisation of migrants and people of colour leads: the most serious physical and sexual violence.

True, but they usually concern the state of mind of the defendent, who has the benefit of the doubt. The problem with this law is illustrated by the fact that you and I reasonably disagree about the meaning of the t-shirt but your view would prevail in court simply because it is the most illiberal.

The spuriousness or otherwise of the argument depends on whether or not the PO genuinely suspected that the shirt expressed support but there is no way for a jury to determine the state of the PO's mind. All they have to go on is whether the argument presented in court is reasonable.

Consider the "plasticine" t-shirt. If that were seen at a pro-Palestine protest, do you think it would be unreasonable to suspect that it was coded support for Palestine Action? And are you confident that no police officer could convince a jury that it was reasonable?

Whether it's about wind farms, Ukraine or Trump's eye for beauty, Simon Jenkins's weekly screed is guaranteed 24-carat bollocks, but if someone could write a piece on why this journalistic fossil still has a job at the Guardian, that is something that would be worth reading.

What I find more shocking than anything else is the formulation that someone commits an offence if they
"arouse reasonable suspicion that he is a member or supporter of a proscribed organisation." So a police officer only needs to say, "I suspect you," claim some spurious reason and you're guilty.

It has long been known that Mandelson remained close to Epstein even after he was convicted of sex offences.

He shouldn't have been appointed in the first place, and it is very clear that the Prime Minister must sack him immediately.

We either stand with victims or we don’t.

I can never look at Mandelson without recalling Paul Keating's description of Bob Hawke: "A shiver looking for a spine to run up."
