I'm afraid to admit that I watched a bit of him on Richie Allen on YouTube and it was crushingly boring
Though Richie Allen is not boring - he's an antisemite richieallen.co.uk/jewish-leader-…
Listen from 5:15 when he starts talking about the 'Rostchild crime family' and 'kapo regimes' (including Soros). Richie Allen is a proper antisemite. Nobody associated with Labour should be anywhere near his show. It's extraordinary podomatic.com/podcasts/richi…
It's unbelievable. This is antisemitism hiding in plain sight, the *chair* of Luciana Berger's CLP has been on Allen's racist show loads of times.

A guy who talks about Rothchilds and lizards!
This is all about culture

In what kind of institution can this happen? What kind of organisation allows this kind of *risk* to develop for a Jewish MP to be abused?

Formby gave the CLP an instant bill of health. She should have suspended it and launched an urgent investigation
On culture:
To be fair, he’s right about google thejc.com/news/uk-news/u…

1/ Ooh, important Employment Appeal judgment for followers of religious rights cases. Appeal allowed on the religious discrimination grounds but dismissed on sex discrimination + harassment assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5c62a958…
2/ Here is the summary - note that this is the first case as far as I know to apply the Supreme Court's recent 'gay cake' ruling about Catholic bakers in Northern Ireland
3/ Here's the bit about the Ashers Bakery case - it's about whether a person is protected by the Equality Act from being discriminated against due to *an employer's* (as opposed to their own) religion or belief.

The answer is they can't.

I watched the debate over @IlhanMN. I flipped and flopped but I think I come down pretty much where @mehdirhasan does:

- Tweets were a bit crass and clumsy
- It shouldn't be taboo to mention the influence of lobbying for foreign govts including Israel

theintercept.com/2019/02/12/the…
The Jewish community is right to be cautious over the rise of antisemitic tropes

But. There must enough free speech space to have a fierce, sometimes emotional debate over what is happening in Israel and Palestine.

Not always easy when the circles in the Venn Diagram can cross
With Netanyahu in charge and Israel moving ever rightwards it's even more urgent to keep the lines of criticism fully open.

The responsibility cuts both ways though - critics should be aware of the danger of slipping into conspiracism, as sometimes happens

Ok everyone

If you’re tweeting I’m islamophobic,

have shady motivations,

am a Tory shill,

refusing to engage with what I’m actually saying,

I’m going to mute you,

so you can keep shouting,

I’ll focus on people who are listening

And we’ll all be happy!

Cheerio!
This just pipped the deadline but muting anyway
Honestly guys (you seem to be mostly guys) I realise you think you’re fighting for a socialist utopia but you seem as far away from the principles of solidarity and fraternity than anyone I have ever come across. How did that happen?

Thread on David and Goliath (1 Samuel 17)

The combat is over in just one verse, so why take 58 verses to tell the story?

There's much more here than meets the eye.

Why do people always tell the story without the cheese (v. 18)?

#dontforgetthecheese
#davidandgoliath
The chapter begins with the Philistines invading Judah.

Philistines and Israelites face each other from their vantage points on the two sides of the Valley of Elah.
The Philistines have a big guy named Goliath on their side (v. 4).

Interestingly, after initially being named, he generally just gets called 'the Philistine' (e.g. v. 10). He no doubt thinks his name/reputation are important. The narrator doesn't.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

It’s #WorldSleepDay

Sleep is absolutely essential to your physical and mental health.

Sleep’s rhythms underpin everything you do, ensuring your brain and body are working at their best.

But we’re often bad at recognising that, and prioritising sleep in our lives
If you’ve had the right amount of good quality sleep, you should be waking physically and mentally ready to tackle the day ahead

#WorldSleepDay
... many of us don’t feel that way though, especially on a weekday!

Most adults in the UK get about an hour’s less sleep than they need ... the equivalent of missing an entire night of sleep every week!
