🚨This time last year, I nearly defected to Reform, now they’ve repelled me and Kemi Badenoch’s turned it around! Thank god after seeing what’s happened to people like Tim Montgomerie 🇬🇧. To win, Nigel Farage needed to win over people like me; that is now impossible.

If a terrorist attack on Muslims had taken place inside a mosque during Eid, would Jews and pro-Israel supporters have marched in the streets? Yet yesterday, after a terrorist attack against British Jews, we saw the pro-Palestine brigade calling to “globalise the intifada” and chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” I say this as someone who is broadly pro-Palestine, a believer in a two-state solution, and someone who has been deeply critical of Israel’s response to October 7th. But to march on that day, with those chants? Show some damned respect and compassion. #Antisemitism #Israel #Palestine #TwoStateSolution #UKPolitics

Passed through #UniteTheKingdom as it’s on my way to the spa… A Bob Marley song is currently playing. The vibe is actually similar to the Notting Hill Carnival, just British instead of Afro-Caribbean. I smell weed, see some dilated pupils, lots of booze, cheerful singing and chants of “Keir Starmer’s a wanker” Mostly white, some black and brown faces. Not threatening at all at present. Hope it stays this way…

Is it possible to be furious with Jason Arday, the man at the centre of the alleged Cambridge fraud, and feel desperately sorry for him at the same time? Because that’s exactly where I am. Anger and compassion aren’t mutually exclusive. Are they? 🤔 Times Radio Ryan Tubridy #JoElvin

What if the Jason Arday story had ended with something far darker than a resignation letter? Arday and Cambridge University have serious questions to answer. The media was RIGHT to investigate potential fraud and institutional failure. But this August feeding frenzy became something else. If the relentless scrutiny had ended in tragedy, would we in the media still be patting ourselves on the back? #JasonArday #Cambridge

Farage attacking WFH & work–life balance is pure boomer slop 🤡 A thinly veiled capitulation to donors balls-deep in commercial real estate 🏢💰 The white-haired pensioners cheering behind him 👴👏 told you everything. If you don’t have a job, don’t lecture people who do. #WFH #WorkLifeBalance #OutOfTouch Jeremy Vine & Daytime on 5 Jeremy Vine | Here, on Tiktok, Insta & Facebook Mary Loudon

Did Jason Arday have serious questions to answer? Yes. Were his apparent lies deserving of scrutiny? Of course. But was the scale and ferocity of the coverage proportionate to how similar cases of academic misconduct are normally treated? No. Two things can be true at once. We are losing the ability to think with nuance. You can condemn wrongdoing without abandoning proportionality, perspective or basic humanity. ITV News

When Nick Griffin used to say things like: ‘black Brits like Sir Trevor McDonald & Kelly Holmes aren’t English’ We all thought he was racist Today Suella Braverman says brown Brits like her can’t be English IMO It’s the same BNP style 💩 Nigel Farage MP should avoid it

🇬🇧 As a mixed-race Briton, I’ve felt increasingly depressed watching what’s happening to our country. I don’t recognise it anymore. Citizens turning against citizens. Reactions to horrific crimes differing depending on who committed them. Innocent people being targeted because they share the same skin colour, ethnicity or faith as a criminal. Britain is better than this. #UK #Britain #SocialCohesion

🚨 “I can’t breathe.” George Floyd said it. Henry Nowak said it. Both died in police custody. Both needed help, not handcuffs. So spare me the outrage that American politicians have opinions on Henry Nowak. British politicians spent years commenting on George Floyd. And spare me the lectures from Americans about Britain’s decline. Their society is hardly a model for the rest of us. The real question isn’t Britain vs America. It’s why two men in obvious distress died after uttering the exact same words. 💔 #HenryNowak #GeorgeFloyd #PoliceAccountability #TwoTier LBC Tom Swarbrick

Read my lips. I don’t want anyone paying a penny more in tax. Not income tax. Not wealth tax. Not “one-off” tax. Nothing. The problem isn’t that taxpayers aren’t contributing enough. The problem is a government that refuses to touch its biggest, most expensive commitments: welfare, benefits, pensions. If a Chancellor won’t cut waste before reaching for our wallets, they’re not “responsible”, they’re weak. Britain doesn’t need higher taxes. Britain needs a smaller, braver state. 💷✂️ #NoNewTaxes #CutTheWaste #SpendingProblemNotTaxProblem Marina Purkiss Jeremy Vine & Daytime on 5 Matt Allwright

✡️ Where is the same energy for Jewish Brits that we had for Black Lives Matter? I started my political and media career during #BLM. I co-founded a right-wing anti-racist movement Conservatives Against Racism For Equality - CARFE with Siobhan Aarons Binita Mehta-Parmar Johnny Luk & Rt Hon Steve Baker FRSA 🗽, with the support of Miriam Cates Sir Jeremy Hunt MP Tim Loughton Robert Halfon Peter Gibson Sally-Ann Hart & more, at the time it felt like - bar a few batty right-wingers - the whole country was behind black Brits in our hour of need. I don’t feel like the country has the backs of Jewish Brits in theirs. Where are the brands calling out antisemitism? The celebrities? The anti-antisemitism protests? It is reasonable to ask: do Jewish lives matter too? #Antisemitism #JewishLivesMatter

Decided to mix things up today and went to my local church for the first time since I was a kid. A recent experience got me curious about faith (after years of full-on atheism but still feeling culturally Christian), and honestly? I really enjoyed it. I was probably the youngest person there, which made me realise—if we don’t keep these traditions alive, who will? Already planning to go back next week. Who saw this plot twist coming? 🕊️🙏 #SundayService #FaithCurious #CulturalChristian #TraditionsMatter #UnexpectedTurn
