Stories like this make me think that somewhere along the line, I actually died and went to hell. How did so many of my old colleagues and friends stand for this man against their own daughters? How could they happily see my career destroyed on his behalf?

In the ancient world, the way many people gained great wealth was by forming gangs of strong men, beating up their neighbors, and taking their stuff. People still speak with admiration of men like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, but they were little better than gangsters who enriched themselves through armed robbery. This was a negative sum game, and assured that people remained poor and unhappy for thousands of years. Eventually, however, we figured out that respecting each other’s rights, building things, and trading meant that we could play positive sum games instead. We could increase the amount of wealth, and all would benefit. As a result, we moved from living in unheated shacks to living in what our ancestors would’ve thought of as paradise in only a few hundred years. However, there are still people out there who think that beating someone up and taking their stuff is a really great idea. It is the great task of our civilization to shun such people, as they are not fit to be part of society.
If we liquidated Elon Musk as a financial entity we could each pocket $3,000. Just putting that out there. 3K. Not bad.

“Biggest drone noise… V formation…” Regular pro-Pal activist Rina was very upset by these mysterious flying objects over London today. She was also among the core crowd abusing Met Police officers outside Woolwich Crown Court yesterday…

So appears I'm not liked by at least 1 senior govt adviser. That's a badge I'll happily pick up off the floor and wear with dignity and honour. Here's a hint. Sort out the water industry, fix our rivers and you need never speak my name ever again. Massive thank you once again to Patrick Galbraith @PaddyGalbraith and all at the @Telegraph for the coverage and support. instagram.com/reel/DZkxUeMgu…

You descended upon a Jewish neighbourhood to storm a synagogue, and because you are vile, racist, Jew hating mobs and were outnumbered by hundreds and hundreds of decent local residents, you cry like a baby. You are the scum of the earth and next time you try this, it will be thousands, not hundreds waiting for you. I’m sorry I wasn’t there.
Now in Edgware. We are I fear attack from hundreds of genocide supporters

It Was Supposed to Be History I'm a Polish filmmaker living in London. I wasn't raised to care about antisemitism. Quite the opposite. Like many Poles of my generation, I grew up with a version of history that focused heavily on Polish suffering during the Second World War. I visited Auschwitz as a teenager, yet somehow left without truly understanding the scale of what had happened to Europe's Jews. That changed when I was 19 and worked on Schindler's List. For the first time, I was confronted with parts of history that had been missing from my education. Later, living in Paris and spending time in New York, I met Jewish people whose understanding of Poland, Europe and history was very different from my own. Some conversations were uncomfortable. A few were life-changing. The more I learned, the more I realised that antisemitism didn't disappear after the Holocaust. It adapted. Today it often arrives dressed as political activism, conspiracy theories, selective outrage, historical revisionism, or simply a double standard applied to the world's only Jewish state. I am not Jewish. I have no family connection to Israel. What I do have is a deep distrust of propaganda, mob thinking, and people who demand that history be simplified into slogans. My work on antisemitism began with a simple realisation: if I could be misled about history, so could millions of others. That is why I make films, conduct interviews, and challenge narratives. Not because I have all the answers. Because I spent too many years believing things that weren't true.

Ten years ago your wife was murdered by a deranged man. Ten years later you've built a career on her grave, using her death to silence anyone who disagrees with you. That is not grief. That is industry. You claim "far right extremism" is the threat. Yet in those same ten years, thousands of British children were raped by grooming gangs your party protected. A Sudanese migrant attempted beheading in Belfast. Churches burned. Synagogues attacked. Not by the "far right." By the imports you cheered. You fear "democracy at risk" because people vote differently. You fear "social cohesion" because working-class communities object to their daughters being collateral damage. You fear algorithms because they let people speak without your permission. You don't mourn your wife, Brendan. You monetize her. You weaponize her. You wave her memory like a censor's badge to shut down debate, to protect the rapists your party imported, to demonize the parents who actually tried to protect their children. You have no morals. You have a brand. And that brand is built on the one tragedy that gives you immunity from criticism. How convenient. How profitable. How utterly, irredeemably vile. Our world is at risk because of men like you. Men who import danger, then blame those who notice. Men who sacrifice children to prove their tolerance. Men who would rather police language than protect lives. Keep writing your columns. Keep cashing your cheques. The rest of us will keep counting the bodies your compassion created.
10 years ago my wife, the mum of our kids & the MP for Batley&Spen was killed by a far right extremist. At anniversaries I try to be optimistic about the future. But not this time. In the ten years since she was killed we have gone backwards & I fear our democracy is now at risk

The MoD felt the need to deny the tanker raid was staged. Ask yourself why. Because in the same breath they accidentally confirmed everything people were saying Their own spokesman admitted footage was taken at multiple points and compiled together. Different takes. Edited into one seamless video. A voice can be heard saying ROLLING. And telling a soldier to HOLD THAT during a live search of the vessel. Those are not military commands. Those are film production commands. And the MoD just told us that themselves. The policy to seize shadow fleet ships was announced in MARCH. Three months. Not one tanker touched. The Smyrtos sailed from the Russian oil terminal Ust-Luga on June 4. They tracked it for ten days as it crossed the North Sea and entered the Channel. They did not stumble upon this ship on the night of June 14. They chose the night before the G7 to act. That is not a military decision. That is a scheduling decision. World leaders arriving the next morning specifically to discuss standing up to Russia. Starmer needed something to walk into that room with. 3am operation. Tweet before breakfast. Video uploaded before the world woke up. The man Trump publicly called not Winston Churchill needed to walk into the G7 looking like one. So he produced a film the night before the G7 to prove he is still relevant. As DPP he volunteered to go after British soldiers. Did not have to. Was not asked to. Chose it. For free. Here’s is what makes this truly obscene. The man now wrapping himself in the Armed Forces spent years pursuing British soldiers through the courts. Nobody asked him. Nobody paid him. He chose to prosecute them. Worked for free to do it. That is not a lawyer doing his job. That is a man with an agenda. Armed Forces shrinking by 300 a month. Lowest since the Napoleonic Wars. Eleven days before this three Royal Marines were killed when a Merlin Mk4 crashed in Devon. Same aircraft. Investigation open. Not grounded. Used anyway. Chris Gayson. Lily-Mae Fisher. Owen Green. Lily-Mae never got her wings. They were due this month. He spent years trying to destroy soldiers like them. Then used what is left of them to save himself. Our soldiers deserved better than being props in his political survival film.

The BBC is simply Pravda with a British accent. It doesn’t just report unfairly and incorrectly on Israel, Gaza, and Hamas — it enforces the party line with an iron fist. When one of its own veteran reporters publicly criticized the broadcaster’s refusal to call Hamas “terrorists” after Oct 7, they sacked him in order to make him an example to any other journalist thinking of going against the BBC's biased narrative. The message was clear: No dissent allowed. State-funded propaganda protecting terrorists while demonizing Israel, all at British taxpayer expense. Paywall free🔗 telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/06…

Savvy Trevor Phillips takes the day off and leaves Wilfred Frost to hand village idiot Lisa Nandy her arse on a plate, he asks her if there are 700 vessels in the Russian Shadow Fleet how come the UK has stopped an awe-inspiring ONE of them in four years. She says that shows how serious Keir Starmer's Government is on the matter....

To be clear, you are claiming as a foreigner to know this better than, not just an MP but a Dame of the British Empire and a serving privy councillor. You're 100% correct mind you. I've got no fucking clue what she's going on about.

This just shows, how genuinely sorry Keir Starmer was for appointing Peter Mandelson and ignoring the Epstein victims, who are always at the front of his mind, apparently

Zack, I appreciate hardly anybody within the Green Party is prepared to stand up to you when you are clearly wrong. The Green Party supports the right of peaceful protest and NVDA. You know what "NV" stands for right? Premeditated destruction of property on a grand scale. Unrepentant assault against an officer of the law, taking a literal sledgehammer to the back of a police officer resulting in spinal injury & ongoing occupational health & psychological trauma, these are not acts that politicians should be condoning but condemning. Instead you are championing their violent conduct. Please don't kid yourself, even as Leader of the Green Party, that you can act as a law unto yourself. Whether council tax liability or convictions for perpetrators of gratuitous harm, the law does apply to all citizens equally. Your continued betrayal & transgression of Green Party core values is concerning - as is your advocacy of violent tactics.
Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel. Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it. A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

Actually, about this: Elon once offered the UN $6 billion for World Hunger in 2021 - on the condition that the UN provided Open Source Accounting and allowed him or anyone else to track and audit exactly where the money was spent on. Which I think is a fair request considering that UN had multiple high-profile embezzlement cases such as what happened in Somalia in 2010 and Ethiopia in recent years. There's even one being actively probed right now in Sudan. UN has not have a good track record of monitoring where other people's money go to, and that's an understatement. The UN's response? They said they would at best, offer summaries and high-level category reports...which is not very helpful. It was also not going to be an open ledger, so no one outside of UN leadership could see where the money would go to. So...the offer fell through because the UN was unable to provide trackable details on where the money goes to, making auditing extremely difficult. The rest is history, which is now being actively memory-holed by you OP. Sure hate Elon that he bought Twitter, at least be fair.
people starving all around the world and this asshole has a trillion dollars btw
