The latter has allowed anti-Semites the platform they crave. And it doesn't take much. The glory years of Jeremey Corbyn showed you how widespread anti-Semitism is amongst so-called 'progressives' and anti-racists.

Even if the founders were still involved, targeting Israeli businesses or targeting anyone Israeli full stop, or anyone who believes in Israel's right to exist, are deeply anti-Semitic acts. But this is all par for the course for the Palestinian Solidarity Movement.

It's the kind of immensely cynical operation that just absolutely destroys trust in politics, but also in the state. Deeply shameful stuff, but also stupid and self-destructive. People high on their own supply from political thrillers. Whose future probably now lies in consultancy for the same.

It was proper dark arts of PR stuff. Commission your own report and make sure it includes a Russian hacking claim. Don't bother with evidence or any expert consultancy. Don't need them.

Pass that report to GCHQ. Then you say GCHQ are looking into claims of Russian involvement. You made sure of it.

Ha ha! Excellent. They were never going to beat Clare Foy as the Queen. S3 and 4 were also very good. Then it just got a bit silly and ignored the history.

I recently read "Act of Oblivion" by Robert Harris. All about the hunt for the two men involved in his eventual execution. Terrific book.

About bloody time. To think that taxpayers' money has been funding that grotesque individual's lifestyle. I'm not a Republican (don't care enough either way) but (Not Prince) Andrew's the best advert for getting rid of the lot of them. (Still, The Crown series 1 and 2 was great!).

"5 Pillars" runs a Podcast called "Blood Brothers", which has hosted some of Britain's most notorious neo-Nazis & far right activists, like Nick Griffin (BNP), Mark Collett (Patriotic Alternative) & Jayda Fransen (ex-Britain First), to rant about Jews.
Now the Greens are cosying up to them.

Of course they bloody know. Have you seen their campaign literature? And from GE 2024. Shamelessly playing sectarian politics. Disgraceful.

It's a bloody important question. Unfortunately, some will notice and care but it won't stop them voting for them. In much the same way Trump can be as reprehensible as possible and millions still back him. I feel like best way to attack Reform is targeting Farage.

On top of this, it really risks tipping Reform into a US oriented, Christian nationalist, socially conservative party in a way that is uncomfortable for a lot of UK voters. The question is if those voters notice or care.

Really feel for you lot. You had an impressive following at our place (Bristol City) a few weeks ago. Hopefully you've got a good enough squad to bounce back up. And at least that wretched owner's gone.

Assuming I can count, if Sheff Wed lose their next game...away to Sheff Utd, they'll be relegated with 13 games still to play. Must be some sort of record. Although they have been deduced 18 pts so probably pointless to compare with others.

Same shit's happening in Bristol, by the ghastly Green Party. This is the kind of thing Galloway and his bearded henchmen used to specialise in. Dangerous politics, from the 'be kind' brigade.

This quote couldn't be more true and I know this is how so many British Jews feel right now:

The English city where volunteers go door-to-door asking people to stop buying Israeli products "Any campaign against Israel is a campaign against British Jews. You can't separate it," says Vicky Bhogal from the organisation Jewish and Proud.

These fuckwits make me rage. Naturally, the organiser's called Seymour. Privileged, sanctimonious, middle class twat.

No shit. But this was always going to happen. Only solution is to get rid. Fans who go to games don't want it.

They are the ultimate grifters. Crowd funded legal challenges which they usually lose. Then come back for more. Aided by gullible idiots. Such a hateful organisation, lead by one of the most pompous pricks online.

Similar to Starmer in that respect. A classic sign of inauthenticity.

They're paralysed. Permanently scared of Reform. Every utterance is about appeasing Reform voters. I used to like her too.

It's such a wanky, neither here nor there comment. They have a unique ability to piss everyone off. This govt has no identity. You can say, correctly, levels of immigration have been too high for 20 years, without trashing some of the contributions of immigrants.

Winter Olympics not doing it for me. Never has. Unlike the summer ones which I absolutely love. Spectators wrapped up and standing in sub-zero temp. Just makes me feel cold. The setting is spectacular however.

He’s parted ways with an *awful* lot of people for things that he was – or easily could have been – aware of at the time he hired them.
