To be clear: any promotion of the ‘Islamic’ regime in Iran as heroes in this war because they want the destruction of Israel is not only insane, it does not help. As a rule, siding with a murderous, anti-life, anti-human regime hurts ANY cause, even more so innocent Palestinians.

Some are saying if you’re against the Islamic Republic of Iran, you’re a Zionist. Which is like saying if you criticise the Israeli govt, you’re antisemitic. People are not their governments. But if they are, then every human being on the planet should be ashamed of themselves.

Shocked to see this. The Tories have, through their place men in the BBC, finally put paid to the only current affairs programme I trusted.
Have admired your reporting and analysis for many years. Sorry to see you go.

SpeakOutSister There's always been a problem with certain strands of 'feminism' which fixate on 'who can we exclude? How can we keep things PURE?' It's focused on the specialness of (SOME) women, their mystic wombs/magical woman-essence... and it has always lent itself to cosying up to fascism

No one should, or should be expected to, just roll over when people are threatening their rights. And if you're LGBTQ or a woman, the trans exclusionary movement is coming for YOU.

No we will not stand quietly and let them walk all over us. Expect NOISE.

So the rationale is:
'British students have insufficient exposure to other languages - so let's make it worse!'

Chris Parry Voter fraud numbers are minute- 9 cases since 2010? This voter ID gerrymandering will disenfranchise millions. Even Rees Mogg admitted it had been bought in to cut Labour votes. Explain why the ID protocol is completely different for pensioners (many of whom vote Tory) and young

Chris Parry In person voter fraud is almost non-existent.

Chris Parry Bollocks. It's a malicious solution to a non-existent problem.

There have been more tory sex scandals than there have cases of voter fraud.

Chris Parry How many cases of voter fraud?

1 in 17 million.

It's voter suppression. Clearly.

Diana (((Dan Hodges))) Supertanskiii You are spot on Diana. Our press are either corrupt, lazy or incompetent. They urgently need reform. They have undue influence (mainly owned by foreign nationals) with zero accountability.

Another huge protest in Tel Aviv wanting rid of Netanyahu & his extremist Govt partners, calling for immediate elections, a ceasefire & the return of hostages

See It’s not anti-semitic to detest his Govt & it’s actions

michael dixon Brian Cox Man who voted to remove our right to move to the EU now tells us if we don't like it here to move to the EU.

Not the brightest are you champ.

This is interesting because the basic arguement matches a recent Telegraph opinion piece - and it’s both correct and naive. It’s correct because the only way Brexit could have worked economically speaking was to use it to deregulate, lower business taxes, shrink the state etc.…

Budapest…

The beginning of the end for Putin’s puppet Orbàn

The family of the Express really need to stage an intervention

A marvellous day: canvassing in Cartmel this morning, Lindale this afternoon (off-the-scale reception, Thankyou!), a lovely run around Westmorland lanes in the evening sun, then a pint or 2…also, a decent draw for ⁦Blackburn Rovers⁩ and a vital 3 points for ⁦Kendal Town FC⁩

The Israeli airstrike that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers, including an American citizen, was absolutely horrifying and unacceptable. 
Today, I called on the Biden Admin to withhold offensive arms transfers to Israel with Rep. Jim McGovern, @Janschakowsky and 37 other colleagues.
