‘Telling the truth is a revolutionary act’

When Marlowe’s British Kitchen opened in Leeds, Rabbi Gilbert asked the Muslim owners, Jenade Yamin and Arabaab “Paddy” Munir if they would consider making it kosher as well as halal. They did not have to. It meant change and cost. Paddy thought about it and said yes. Now there are halal and kosher fryers side by side and one long queue for fish and chips. Orthodox Jews, Muslim families, neighbours from every background, ordering the same national dish. Everyone remained unmistakably themselves, they simply widened the table and in that small act, you glimpse the country we can still choose to be. (My grandfather was a kosher caterer, known for his fish. I inherited none of his skill!) Jewish News

What could be more British than fish & chips? At the table in Marlowe’s, Rabbi Gilbert and Arabaab “Paddy” Munir talk about bringing Jewish, Muslim & every other community in Leeds together around the same place and the same meal. In Jewish life there’s a word for the shared joy that grows when people come together like this: simchah. I asked Paddy whether it was worth it. He doesn’t hesitate “Definitely.”…Sometimes what we share matters more than what makes us different.

Last night, we danced in joy, in remembrance and in defiance. 80 years since the ’45 Aid Society was founded by child survivors of the Holocaust who came to the UK to rebuild their lives — 732 in total, including some, like my grandfather Moshe, who were sent to Windermere to heal. With so many of their families gone, they formed a new one bound by memory, love, and resilience. From that, the ’45 Aid Society was born: a global community rooted in hope, humanity, and the belief in democracy as something sacred and hard-won. I’m incredibly proud of my mum, Angela Cohen, Chairman of the Society, for keeping that legacy alive with unwavering devotion. One survivor said: “Victory over Hitler is my family.” That says it all. Thank you to Yvette Cooper for her powerful words and to Susanna Reid and Ed Balls for joining us on the dance floor. Because choosing joy, and dancing with hope, is the ultimate act of defiance. The number of survivors grows smaller each year so it’s now up to you, and the generations to come, to carry their stories forward and protect the truth they entrusted to us. 45 Aid Society

A bomb shelter in Kiev two hours ago. Where there is love & hope, there is resistance. #SlavaUkraini

What a day to remember! Guernsey’s 80th Liberation Anniversary had it all, a beautiful afternoon tea dance with many who lived through it, and a full-blown evening party for everyone else (including R Y L A N who showed up looking like Eurovision exploded and still managed to charm everyone’s nan). This island has a heart bigger than its coastline, a love of freedom that runs deep, and a dancefloor that didn’t stand a chance. Huge thanks to Specsavers for organising a day we’ll never forget—Guernsey, you truly liberated the night. Specsavers

This was the soundtrack to our Apprentice pitches, every note played in support of Children in Need. Rehearing it with Orion Orchestra was a reminder that whatever the outcome, the purpose mattered far more. I asked to be fired because leaders answer for outcomes, not excuses! Proud of my team and of what we helped support. STAY WATCHING UNTIL THE END BBC Children in Need BBC One
