A rapper in Glasto gets a crowd chanting 'death to the IDF'. In the last 24 hrs the IDF slays around 80 Palestinians. (Channel 4 News.) Which story counts?
#questiontime What a night. Was so pumped up with adrenaline and rage sitting next to the misleading @RobertJenrick that I was up till 4 am. Thank you to all who have sent warm messages
How small and mean our country feels today, led by @BorisJohnson a chancer who has never understood democracy or responsibility. And has never made a memorable, weighty speech.
Just realised the dreadful Michael Fabricant lost his seat. A hateful man who once tweeted that someone should punch me in the throat to silence me. Gone too Liam Fox another Tory ghoul. Relishing these bits slowly.
#PritiPatel Defend her, they say, she's one of us, a Ugandan Asian. Go hang your head in shame, say I. For she's one of them - a right wing fanatic & appalling human being.
Memo to Labour's top table: you won because voters were sick of the Tories, not because they thought you would deliver Tory policies more efficiently. They wanted a fairer country. You have broken their hopes. Unforgiveable..
My sister's funeral today. Could only watch online. Covid killed her but mental illness took her away first- beauty, her love of the arts, her spirit, all went. Been grieving a long time. She's at peace now. Still feel bereft.
Here's my verdict. @BorisJohnson was a chancer, narcissistic and unworthy. That Truss woman was a crazed capitalist. @RishiSunak is the worst: a billionaire egoist, & extremist right winger only interested in power and the powerful.
I wrote a column on the BBCs blatant bias against Palestinians. Never has a column by me provoked such concern. Now we learn it won't show a doc they have on the deaths of Palestinian medics. Outrageous and deeply immoral. Write to the BBC . We pay for it.
400 plus public swimming pools closed in the last decade. A good number on the most deprived areas. Meanwhile power grid is upgraded to heat the private swimming pool in the Yorkshire home of @RishiSunak . A tale of two nations.
