The trouble with all the claims flying around at the moment is that they're all true:

Niqabs and burqas really do look ridiculous
and
Boris Johnson really is a racist bigot trying to stir up hate
and
There really is antisemitism in the Labour party
and
The IHRA definition of "antisemitism" really does conflate antisemitism and criticism of Israel
and

Corbyn has handled the row over antisemitism appallingly
and
There are people disingenuously using the issue to denigrate him and Labour
and
The Tories support protectionism, isolationism, & authoritarianism
and
The Tories support free-trade, globalisation, & libertarianism
and

UK/US political representatives are very concerned about (& are instituting swingeing sanctions against) Russian interference in our democracies
and
UK/US political representatives are indifferent to (& in some cases may have colluded in) Russian interference in our democracies

and
The BBC is a still shining example (to the world) of what is (or at least was) great about our country
and
The BBC has (especially on the Today programme) all too often strikes absurd "balances" between facts / expert opinion and complete and utter twaddle-bollocks

it's a funny old world
