In this afternoon's debate about the Gov relationship with charities, @RealStephenKerr raised the issue of almost wholly-funded lobby groups which pose as charities to help push Gov agenda. He mentioned @DSanderson_85 report & comments by @AlexNeilSNP Gov benches not happy!

Big News this morning : The George Washington statue near Fenway Park in Boston has been given the Highest Honour By the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scottish Fans. Someone has got up there God knows how and placed a traffic cone □on his heed. 😅🤣😂😂. This is a proud moment for 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland. 👍🏻

And yet you turn off replies.

Peter Murrell embezzlement investigation saw dozens of purchases including women's knickers dropped by prosecutors dailyrecord.co.uk/news/polit…

This plea arrangement is beginning to look somewhat unusual.

A sub at the Record won't be buying his own drinks tonight.

Oh dear. Nicola's really fucked.

I have been sickened all day by the news of three boys who lured two schoolgirls, raped them, and filmed it on their phones while they laughed and egged each other on. When they finally stood before a judge this week, they were handed “rehabilitation orders” and walked out without serving a single day behind bars. Not in prison, not in custody or a young offender institution. The judge said, “None of you need to go to prison”. What message does that send to rapists? The crime could hardly be graver, yet the punishment was no punishment at all. It’s the collapse of consequences and the rot runs right through the justice system. And this is only going to get worse because Labour are choosing to go soft on criminals: ❌ They have abolished short prison sentences. ❌ They have let tens of thousands of criminals out early. ❌ And now they want to raise the age of criminal responsibility, so that even MORE young offenders escape any consequence at all. My position is common sense👇 PRISON WORKS. ✅It punishes those who do wrong, it keeps dangerous people off our streets and away from our children. ✅It tells every victim that the law is on their side. A country that forgets this is a country where schoolgirls are raped and filmed for sport, and the boys who did it get to go home. Conservatives stand against it and our policies on sentencing and prison are the ones that will deliver a stronger country.

"Duncan Bannatyne, thank you very, very much for standing up for women, girls and our safety!" The former Dragons' Den star has dropped his support for Andy Burnham, refusing to back anyone who allows biological men in women's toilets. @JuliaHB1 | @DuncanBannatyne

Last week I decided to throw my support behind @AndyBurnhamGM for leadership of the Labour Party and on to PM. But I cannot do that now that I find out he says Transwomen. IE men. Should be allowed to use the ladies toilets. I can never support anyone that does this. Biological Women must have single sex spaces.

"No, I don't subscribe to this 'kindness' - I'll tell the truth instead." I spoke at the Cambridge Union last night about LGBs, children's safety and women's rights. Full video here:

I’ve written and researched the whole seven front war since 7th October. It has been my whole professional life. I’ve written many papers and have just finished my book. I have written both positive and negative critiques of the war. All of that feels irrelevant in this context. The most meaningful thing I have done since 7th October is bear witness and relay the horrors done that day. I have seen part of the sexual crime evidence in this report (above and beyond the 47 minute reel) and it remains the most horrific thing I have seen in my life. Nothing Israel has done in Gaza comes remotely close to the horrors of 7th October. The Gaza war and 7th October don’t deserve to be in the same conversation when it comes to atrocity. No comparison. The rapes are the thing Hamas and their supporters are most scared of being exposed to the world. Every time I have written about what I have seen, 5x the usual amount of bots descend upon my replies. Abuse and outright denial. Now, the evidence I have seen, and more, is out there. When Yoav Gallant said Israel was fighting human animals in Hamas, he was absolutely correct. Read it for yourself: civilc.org/silenced-no-more

RT @NatalieLisbona: While ordinarily newspapers censor the full horrors of such accounts from Oct 7, today the Daily Mail as hard as it is,…

If you want to know why all the deeply silly “dog rape” stories were published this week, it’s because the paid pro-Palestinian influencer squad were ordered to get ahead of this, genuine horror story.

The entire history of the Muslim-Jewish conflicts in the land since the Ottoman Empire days summed up purrfectly in 35 seconds

He nailed it 😂

Raashid, in 1947 the United Nations proposed a partition plan dividing the territory into a Jewish state and an Arab state. The Jewish leadership accepted it. The Arab leadership rejected it and five Arab armies invaded with the stated aim of destroying the new state before it could take root. The displacement of Palestinian Arabs in 1948 occurred in the context of that war, a war the Arab states started. Some Palestinians fled the fighting. Some were expelled. The historical record on specific incidents is contested and complex. What is not contested is who rejected the partition plan and who launched the invasion. The Jewish population of the Middle East and North Africa tells the other half of the story that is consistently omitted. In 1948 approximately 850,000 Jews lived across Arab countries, communities that in many cases predated the Arab conquest of those territories by over a thousand years. Following Israel's founding they were systematically expelled, their property confiscated, their communities destroyed. Iraq, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Morocco, Tunisia. 850,000 people with nowhere to go but Israel. That population transfer, which nobody calls ethnic cleansing, is the mirror image of 1948 that the ethnic cleansing argument never acknowledges. Two populations were displaced in 1948. One has been the subject of continuous international attention for seventy five years. The other has been written out of the story entirely. That asymmetry is a deliberate choice about whose suffering counts.

Wow. Douglas Murray. A single minute. Give yourself a single minute to listen to this. This man is something else 👏🏽

Gold for Israel! 🇮🇱 The Israeli Rhythmic Gymnastics team delivered a stunning performance in the Five-Ball Event last weekend in Baku - bringing home the gold with a routine that was nothing short of spectacular. Congratulations to Agam, Arina, Abigail, Taya, Sofia, and Keren on this incredible achievement. 🎥 Israel Gymnastics Federation @IsraelinAZ

A Syrian artist living in Berlin posted a video now trending across Germany. Germany welcomed Syrian refugees during and after the civil war and have no colonial past in Syria to atone for. What do they get in return? Resentment, a Third-Worldist rant basically about Western colonizers as eternal oppressors. The contrast with Syria itself is what makes this interesting. Syrians inside Syria today want the West. They want a peaceful Damascus, a functioning banking system, trade, integration into the global economy. The loudest anticolonial voices and movements now sit in Western capitals advocating for things their own people aren’t aligned with.
