I've no real idea what this means but it sounds good. 👍

Absolutely. @sheffieldtribune.bsky.social need to hold there nerve with this & hats off Olivia Blake. A bold light needs shinning on this especially given the new law in this area

Hi Tim I would just block Daniel. He argues in bad-faith and always resorts to abuse, apparently I am a 'white supremacist' for pointing out that both Hamas & Netanyahu are both land maximalists. Hard to figure that I am an ethno-nationalist but there you go - he throws stuff like this out.

I just use the the word grok to mean anything crap, faulty, unreliable.

And yet you are unable or unwilling to address the substance. Hamas and Netanyahu are land maximalists - two sides of the same coin & both want to scupper any talk of a 2 state solution.

I preferred it when Americans actually had a credible standard of education and were able to address a clear issue with out rambling tangetially. Here is an Israeli source setting out Netanyahu's 'alliance'with Hamas.

Just ranting stuff and insulting folk isn't a persuasive argument. Have a nice life David

Well that is what Irgun described itself as. As for Hamas they are faction within the Palestinian population that had ruthlessly attempted to eliminate Fatah - and as a consequence got support from Netanyahu as part of his 'divide & rule' strategy. Ironic really

The Irgun were the National Military Organization in the Land of Israel (Zionist militants they were often described as) & yes they did kill Arabs as well as Britsh - 107 including women and children in an attack on the village Dier Yassin in 1948.

A reminder that in 1947 around 400 Britians were killed by Irgun including the hanging of two abducted soldiers & the Goldsmith club with 13 killed. At the time it led to widespread anti-Jewish rioting in the UK, but to some extent it worked as it helped to prompt British withdrawal.

I am reminded that Boris Johnson described any such enquiry as 'spaffing money against the wall' and yet he was elected first party leader & then PM - His party did nothing. To say Philips - who worked for Women's Aid before politics - is more on the side of rapists is one dumb take. Libel I'd say.

I wonder how they'd go about defining this 'concept'? Could keep sociologists in employment for decades.

I read this piece and really it is a bit pitiful. Basically insisting that Wainwright populates her work from top to bottom with lesbians. Wainwright's work is very much about a place and people and the diversity within. Why you think a US based Aussie is the cultural arbiter of this escapes me.

A strong possibility I'd say.

I broadly agree with your description of Linehan but you really should set out the nature of the corruption you accuse the Met & the PM of. In fact youy should take it to your police force and ask them to investigate your evidence. You have got evidence I trust?

Of course the Maccabi 'ultras' have a long history of racism in their own country

I should imagine they are mixed bunch given there are so many of them. My MP Abtisam Mohamed is excellent - a long-standing activist in our communities.

Well obviously dead to you but in general they plod on as - just let me check - ah yes a government with a huge majority. You might not like their policy agenda (I'm not a particular fan), and the bond markets may cut them off at the knees but they are a long way off imploding.
