This is transparently false: It never takes the worst people on the internet 24 hours to blame a horrific tragedy on a Jewish culprit. More like 24 minutes.

Farage party picked a dead woman to run for Croydon Mayor EXCLUSIVE: Sharon Carby, aged 70, from Bradford, sadly died in July 2024. But that didn’t stop Reform UK six months later picking her as their Croydon mayoral candidate. By our Political Edit…

Reform will have to reselect in Croydon, as their initial candidate for Mayor had been dead for 6 months when they selected her, Inside Croydon report

Being dead is one way to pass the social media vetting but was likely to get noticed eventually

"What was 2025 like, grandpa?"

"The world was falling apart in many ways. Also, almost as gallingly, there were more people than ever who decided they didn't have time to read pieces of writing yet did have time to post opinions on what they'd imagined the pieces of writing they hadn't read said."

Calling for blood purity tests to prove Jewish existence. ALL JEWS ARE EQUALLY JEWS WHETHER BY BIRTH OR NATURALIZATION. Yes! Most Jews also share a direct bloodline connection to the Levantine populations who were there thousands of years ago. WE DO NOT PRACTICE BLOOD QUANTUM SO IT IS NOT RELEVANT.

Dave was filming a documentary about how he came up with the unique Kinks guitar sound. We had a lovely chat after, taking in teenage pregnancy and antisemitism among other things.

I was totally privileged today to meet the amazing @davedavieskinks and his amazing partner @rebeccagwilson.
I’ve been a Kinks fan all my life - not just because I’m a Muswell Hillbilly like them. I think they are the poets of London & some of their songs are among the most beautiful ever written.

I think the reason being an 'anti-zionist' has such a public relations problem is it seems to attract a lot of people who would traditionally be labelled as antisemites. So in that regard it's good to see Corbyn's new party tracking that misconception head-on.

Today @mrjamesob.bsky.social decided to read out a claim from a random person - on national radio - that at 'Shabbat School' UK Jewish children are taught that 'one Jewish life is worth thousands of Arab lives, and that Arabs are cockroaches to be crushed'.

Remember, kids - every time you hurt a Jew, a little bit of Palestine gets freed!

A letter sent to the venue by the Bristol Palestine Alliance complained, among other things, that "Oi Va Voi intends to perform later this year in Israel" and that their singer's album cover of her naked in a field of watermelons featured "dog whistle Zionist imagery".
Strange Brew cancelled the show, citing the watermelon cover image, often used, because of its colours, as a symbol of the Palestinian flag. This was despite the band explaining that the image reflected themes of femininity and nature. The venue said: "The use of politically loaded symbolism in this way - by anyone of any background - is ambiguous and could therefore come across as politically insensitive and/or offensive to the people of Palestine."
Yes, you read that right: an "ambiguous" record cover featuring watermelons is enough to see you cancelled.
The band tell me they are unsure whether their upcoming shows in Brighton and London will still go ahead. Cancellation is like a virus: once one venue caves, others follow.
The Oi Va Voi cancellation follows that of a more famous act - Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood. His supposed crime was performing with Israeli musician Dudu Tassa. That too was in Bristol (what is going on in Bristol?). The pair condemned the "censorship and silencing", adding that the venues had "received enough credible threats to conclude that it's not safe to proceed."

Contrast that with Kneecap. They are named after an IRA punishment of shooting petty criminals in the knees. Earlier this month, Liam Barker, who was kneecapped as a teenager, described the impact it had had on him. A victim of sexual abuse, he ran away from his children's home and stole cars. He was shot in the knees by the IRA when he was 17. He said he had to learn to walk again, adding the experience had led him to lead a life "of mental and physical trauma".
This bank holiday weekend, Kneecap will be the headline act at South London's Wide Awake festival in Brockwell Park. Their next UK date will be their biggest
- at Glastonbury. At the last big festival they played at, Coachella, they displayed the message, "F**k Israel.
Free Palestine."
Since then, one of their members has been charged with a terror offence. This relates to footage taken from a gig at the Kentish Town Forum last year, in which Liam O'Hanna (stage name Mo Chana) appears to shout, "Up Hamas, up Hezbollah." At a previous gig, a member appeared to shout: "The only good Tory is a dead Tory. Kill your local MP."
After one gig with them was cancelled, the music industry rallied around. The likes of Paul Weller, Primal Scream, DJ Annie Mac and scores of other acts signed a letter saying: "As artists we feel the need to register our opposition to any political repression of artistic freedom. In a democracy, no political figures or political parties should have the right to dictate who does and does not play at music festivals or gigs that will be enjoyed by thousands of people."
