Embarrassing stuff from Nadhim Zahawi.
Reform's Nadhim Zahawi, an ex-Tory chancellor, refuses to condemn a Reform ad that has been widely criticised for misrepresenting Tory leader Kemi Badenoch's comments on race. #TrevorPhillips | @TrevorPTweets 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

Robert Jenrick has become a parody of Robert Jenrick. He's no longer a politician. He's a piece of performance art.
Robert Jenrick accuses Kemi Badenoch of politicising the murder of Henry Nowak. @AVMikhailova | @RobertJenrick

NO he won’t be “out in just over 20 years” - that’s the minimum term before he can apply for parole N0 he didn’t get a lighter sentence because of the knife - he has deliberately cut out the bit that says he got a LONGER sentence If he was still a solicitor he’d get struck off
Henry Nowak’s murderer will be out of prison in just over 20 years. Why did he not get longer? Because the judge ruled that - as a Sikh - he had a “good legal reason” to carry a 21cm “Shastar” knife on the streets of Southampton. This sentence is a joke. Two-tier justice at its worst. I will not let this lie.
Community note
Digwa received a life sentence with a minimum term of 21 years before parole eligibility, not automatic release after 20 years. The judge ruled the Sikh exemption did not apply to the 21cm murder weapon and convicted him of unlawful possession. bbc.com/news/articles/… frasernelson.substack.com/p/the-kirpan-d…

Mate, this is embarrassing. You are literally not the shadow Home Secretary. You’re not even an elected politician.

Over the last few days, Hezbollah said it hit a Merkava tank and clashed with Israeli troops in several towns near Nabatiyeh and the strategic castle. On Saturday, Hezbollah fired salvos of rockets into northern Israel, including Kiryat Shmona, the largest town in the area 🧵

The Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has accused Israel of a "scorched-earth policy and collective punishment" in the south of the country. French President Emmanuel Macron has called for a UN Sec Council meeting saying ‘Nothing justifies the major escalation currently under way in southern Lebanon’ 🧵

The seizing of Lebanon’s Beaufort Castle by Israeli troops is much more than the capture of one of the country’s most well known historic landmarks. It was first taken by the Israeli military in 1982, held for 18 years, and withdrawn from in 2000. Now that it’s again under Israeli control is tragically symbolic for many Lebanese - and the Israeli PM is making it clear here he intends to hold onto this Leb territory and go further 🧵
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: "Last night, our heroic fighters captured the Beaufort castle. They proudly raised the flag of the State of Israel and the flag of the Golani Brigade there. I remind you that 44 years ago, this place was a symbol of a heroic battle by our fighters, but it was also a symbol of deep division among us. Today, we returned to Beaufort differently. We returned united, determined, and stronger than ever. I spoke with the fighters on the northern border on Friday. They told me: 'Tell the people of Israel what we are doing here. Prime Minister, the public doesn't know what achievements we have made.' Well, since the beginning of the War of Redemption we have eliminated 8,000 Hezbollah terrorists. Since Operation Roaring Lion – 3,000. In the past month alone – 700. This is more than everyone we eliminated during the Second Lebanon War. I have instructed the IDF to expand the incursion in Lebanon. Our forces have crossed the Litani River. They took dominant terrain. They captured the Beaufort ridge. And now my instruction is to deepen and expand our hold on places that were under Hezbollah's control. The capture of Beaufort is a dramatic stage and a dramatic change in the policy we are leading. We have broken the barrier of fear. We are taking the initiative, we are operating on all fronts – in Syria, in Gaza, in Lebanon; we have established security zones beyond our borders to protect our communities. On Friday, I spoke with the brigade commanders. They are daring brigade commanders, inside the territory, leading the heroic soldiers. And they told me: 'Prime Minister, we are carrying out the mission. We are charging forward – and Hezbollah is fleeing for its life.' And I told them: 'I am with you. The entire nation of Israel is with you. It will take more time, but we will restore security to the residents of the North, just as we did for the residents of the South.' It will take time, but we will complete the mission."

The difference between Lebanon and Gaza is that International press has access to Lebanon. And they are showing for all the world to see that Israel is bombing civilian targets where there is no military in sight. These are war crimes.
Sky News completely destroys the Zionist regime's primary excuse for bombing Lebanon. The reporter confirms there is absolutely zero evidence of military activity in the civilian homes Israel is obliterating. Washington is funding pure state terrorism!

Israel has invaded 40% of Lebanon and is busy destroying every single building. But there are no sanctions for Israel, they won't even suspend free trade with them. They just pretend to be against it while doing nothing.

There is a repeated pattern of medics and first responders in Lebanon being targeted as they attend the aftermath of Israeli attacks - documented by @MaucourantNada and the National, multiple other orgs like @hrw and us at @SkyNews See our latest report on Sky News YouTube share.google/jc62h2f0eze0y5D…
REVEALED: Inside Israel’s war on paramedics. The National investigated four cases in which Israeli strikes killed first responders while they were carrying out rescue missions. In each case, the paramedics were clearly identifiable as rescuers, and there was no indication of an immediate military threat that would justify the attack. Legal experts said the cases reveal a pattern that appears "deliberate" and shows "clear intent" to target paramedics. 1/

I didn’t vote for either of the winners of the last two General Elections but “traitors” for whom a “reckoning is coming”? Really? This very excitable, angry & hyperbolic man should be nowhere near a position of responsibility in a political party that aspires to power.
Recent events demonstrate why I view the Tory and Labour politicians who created the burning injustice of modern Britain as traitors to their country. A reckoning is coming.

This week alone: DOJ opens an investigation into the woman Trump raped. The White House is caught steering a $620 million contract to Don Jr.’s firm. The Pentagon hands out a $10 billion contract after Trump buys stock in the company. Foreign governments are caught funneling hundreds of millions into a random JPMorgan account tied to Trump’s “Board of Peace” with no oversight. It’s just Thursday. The corruption isn’t hidden anymore. It’s happening out in the open.

📢 🇱🇧 Yesterday, Lebanese authorities denounced Israeli strikes near UNESCO-protected heritage sites in south Lebanon, including Beaufort Castle (Qalaat al-Shaqif), one of the best-preserved Crusader-era fortress in the Near East. As Israel's attack intensify in the South, concerns are mounting over this site. Find out more about it.👇 olj.me/1508284?t=32-150709

Leadership means drawing a line. When a councillor displays a swastika tattoo, the response should be immediate and decisive. Cllr Brown chose not to act — and then doubled down with an excuse that insults the people of Barnsley. This isn’t going away. It damages trust and shames our borough. Barnsley deserves better standards than this.

ACLED recorded an increase in Israeli drone strikes in south Lebanon by 110% in the four days up to May 26 (with at least 242 strikes) compared to the 4-day period before that. Hezbollah retaliated with about 30 attacks against Israeli troops in the same period (ACLED: Armed Conflict Location & Event Data).

Cllr Higginbottom set out clearly why Barnsley Labour can’t support Cllr Brown’s appointment as Leader. When a Reform UK councillor displays a swastika tattoo — covered or not — leadership means taking firm action. Instead, Cllr Brown doubled down with an excuse that insults the people of Barnsley. This won’t go away. It shames our borough. Leadership is responsibility — Cllr Brown must act.
