Surprise, surprise @wesstreeting is on @BBCr4today bashing landlords. I’ve got news for you mate, we can’t have a “productive nation” without people having homes, so if you want to tax Landlords to hell, I’d build some alternative accommodation first ‘cos you’re going to need it.

I know what happened on October 7. I've watched every video and read all the testimony I can get my hands on. So I was not expecting to be quite so moved by the Nova exhibition in London this week, which shook me to my core & moved me more than I can say. thejc.com/news/uk/police-gua…

That it will never come again is what makes life sweet. Dwell in possibility. Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough. - Emily Dickenson

Am thrilled and honoured our Holocaust documentary Simon Schama: the Road to Auschwitz won the BAFTA for Specialist Factual Docs - named for the great Huw Wheldon who was a giant of arts programming in the 50s and 60s. Our film was made to put on record the horrifying cruelty humans are capable of inflicting on other humans; and in an age of increasing Holocaust denial how this abyss opened for millions of Jews. May it help in the work of understanding how this came about; how it felt to those caught inside it; and, unfortunately, what our species is yet capable of. Dedicated to those who perished and those who somehow survived; dedicated too, to the tragic truth.

Tell Mama and CST have worked alongside each for years, and continue to support each other as they work to help their respective communities. In a world where many ‘anti-racist’ charities are so in name only, friends like these are hard to come by. Thank you @TellMamaUK

Hawthorn is known as the #May Tree. It gifts love & healing & is sacred to the goddess Brigid. “Bringing in the May” meant bringing in an abundance of hawthorn to adorn the outside of dwellings. It is known as a fairy tree & as such should never be harmed. #FolkloreSunday

We left the Pale and escaped to Whitechapel. We left Whitechapel and found Golders Green, a peaceful slice of suburban England that we could call home. Peaceful, that is, until now. Wrote an essay on recent events for @thetimes times-comment.com/newgolders…

Good and characteristically thoughtful article by Jonathan Freedland. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

@Independent curious and concerned to see little mention of G Green attacks and Jewish fears. Both @thetimes and even @gonuj93 had the grace to lead on this. Bizaare and unhelpful editorial decisions.
