It’s almost like outsourcing the state and country to foreign monomaniacal neo-liberal authority oligarchs is a bad thing….
I find it interesting how Paul Mason appears to have gone from how to fight fascism to how to defend fascist football thugs.

I have written to Lisa Nandy, following her grossly misleading comments over the Maccabi Tel Aviv ban.

This is about a group of fans with a history of racism and violence. It is not about banning Jewish people - and any attempt to conflate the two is shameful.
Man visits organ harvesting torture state.
The entirety of the royal family and their households are rotten to the core.

If you are engaging with the discussion on Aston Villa v Maccabi TA and its wider implications, do read this substack by Owen Jones. It's really informative, particularly the later sections. I learnt a few things which are worth knowing.

Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans: lies, smears - and the truth
Tel Aviv's police ban the city's derby after Maccabi hooligans rioted. You cannot make this sh*t up.

Good thread on how a big part of the problem of British politics is big media figures with no real interest in being across the details.
Peston tells Lam that she said something that he "genuinely didn't understand". "But who are these people who came legally who should leave?"

This does not look like faux naivety.
He should know the answer!

She misleads in her answer to him.
So he gives a misleading summary of her policy on air.
Israel is a torture state. A state harvesting human organs. A rape state. And a protected state.

[I am not going to comment on who should be allowed to attend a football match in Birmingham, but I do find it deeply depressing that there is more media attention on that than on the inhuman atrocities being committed by an ally of the UK with which we have a free trade agreement]

At least 135 Palestinian bodies mutilated by the Israeli army returned to Gaza.

Yet there is infinitely more outrage over racist Israeli football hooligans being barred from Birmingham's streets.

The world has been turned on its head.
At least 135 mutilated bodies of Palestinians had been held at notorious Israeli jail, say Gaza officials
Documents indicate they came from Sde Teiman, which already faces allegations of torture and unlawful deaths

The Tony Blair Institute is heavily backed by Larry Ellison & was “involved in plans to create a new ‘Trump Riviera.’” That vision “envisages creating a ‘blockchain registry for land’ to underpin the construction of up to 8 ‘AI-powered, smart planned cities on the inner side of the Gaza Ring.“ …1/
Pro-Trump Tech Billionaires Are Poised to Cash In on Gaza's 'Peace' Deal
Documents show Tony Blair’s Ellison-funded institute designed Gaza’s recovery plan on data-driven lines echoing Oracle-Palantir war systems.

The entirety of the British political and media establishment have been made to look utterly stupid, and bought. Craven, obsequious and idiotic.

Those backing the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans visiting Birmingham were smeared as antisemites.

Then Tel Aviv police banned the city's derby after riots.

This whole saga is defined by lies and smears.

Here's the truth 👇

Liverpool are a bunch without desire or fight. Slot has messed it up badly, and they are not a team. From here there is no chance of Liverpool retaining the title. Not anything else.
Slot has completely fucked it.
They lie and lie and lie. Israel has at no point stopped murdering and kidnapping Palestinians.
People who man wants to deport support man who wants to deport them. Reason? Hindutva anti-Muslim fascism.
Israeli has not stopped murdering or kidnapping. There is no ceasefire.
Once again, simply lying about the reasons for the ban. Question is, who are they all lying for?

How about Aston Villa F.C. refuse to play Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C. on November 6th?
Would you in good conscience play against a team who have served in the IDF?
Ronay reveals himself here is this torrid, inexcusably misrepresenting piece. They are banned because of what they do, on advice and evidence from Interpol. Not that you would know it from this diatribe. Ronay is now the supporter of far right racist thugs. Legia Warsaw’s fans were banned, Barney.
Would that be a big leap into the occupied territories, you Zionist ghoul?
