If you’re an Iranian who has a monarchist friend or family member, you should call them. Check in on them. This is a really difficult moment for them. You should be there for them. To ruthlessly make fun of them.

The crime here is the church letting a B-listed building crumble & being terrible stewards to the neighborhood. The city shouldn’t be pitching in to keep buildings like this that were deemed in poor condition in 2000. The time to cry about saving this building was 40 years ago.

Would be a great site for a brewery – oh wait, small breweries can’t sell their beer in Glasgow.

We will hold a vigil for murdered Palestinian footballers outside Hampden national park on Friday 5th June at 5pm while the women's team play israel in Hungary. ❤️🇵🇸⚘️

Yesterday in the village we held a bring & buy sale. All proceeds went to a charity supporting those earning just over £100K in the UK. These people can barely keep their children in private education & are now being forced to shop at Tesco’s . Please keep them in your prayers.🙏

Köstritzer Schwarzbier @koestritzerDE is sponsoring the Wave-Gotik-Treffen, the biggest Goth festival in Europe, which is kind of cute.

If Kristof were an Arab or Arab-American journalist working in Palestine the Israelis would simply murder him, and a majority of American politicians and corporate journalists would either ignore or applaud it.

The unanswered question is why Josh Simons threw himself on his sword and resigned his Makerfield seat for Andy Burnham? He ran Labour Together & along with Morgan McSweeny and Mandelson nurtured Starmer as Labour leader, and organised a savage campaign to remove Jeremy Corbyn.

Public Statement On Israeli Real Estate in Midwood Synagogue: Yesterday, a real estate event took place at Young Israel of Midwood involving the sale of land in the Holy Land, with no recognized Rabbinical authority backing this provocative event. Beyond the outrageous idea of selling land in occupied territories, the very notion of using a synagogue to host a real estate sale is virtually unheard of in the Jewish community. Such events are normally held in convention or expo centers. The reason for holding it in a synagogue is obvious: the organizers anticipated protests and sought to portray the situation as Jews being targeted outside a synagogue, when in reality it is a cynical exploitation of a holy space to advance the narrative that Jews are unsafe in New York. It is important to note that a significant number of New York City Jews are decidedly anti-Zionist, a reality that many Israeli-oriented institutions cannot stomach. They seek to use Jewish communities to buttress the claim that whenever someone criticizes Israel, it is automatically antisemitism. As a result, provocative events are intentionally brought into New York City, even into holy sanctuaries, with the expectation that protests and outrage will follow. Torah Jews wishes to reiterate clearly and unequivocally that we desire to live in peace and harmony with our neighbors. We are not proxies for the State of Israel, nor do we have any part in its wars or political conflicts. Our only goal and ultimate wish is to live side by side with our neighbors of all religions, ethnicities, and cultures in mutual respect and coexistence. We continue to hope and pray for true and lasting peace to reign speedily in our days. Rabbi Moshe Dovid Katz

This week's Friday pub is MacSorley's on Jamaica St. There's been a pub here since 1861, then called the Clan Vaults. Philip MacSorley took over the premises in 1897 and commissioned architects Clarke & Bell and R A Bryden to build a new tenement with a pub on the ground floor.

No vote for Labour anywhere until they expel @lukeakehurst

Didn’t I tell you Dudley People’s Archive (on Instagram & Facebook) is worth a follow? Look at this gem, Robert Plant in New York in 1977 wearing a Banks’s t-shirt, 📸 Jim Kelly. I used to work in a Banks’s pub. The mild was fantastic.

Update: I got into the Israel real estate event at Park East Synagogue. Inside I saw at least one table advertising properties in the West Bank, including Kfar Eldad and Karnei Shomron.

Paul meets himself 60 years later, John meets himself 5 years later 😄

Voting for Labour is voting for genocide.

The police and politicians are actually doing what they accuse us of. By saying that Palestine marches are antisemitic, they are conflating ‘Israel’with ‘Jewish people’. My interview with 5 Live…
