I was registering to give blood, and in the from, this activist language is used. @GiveBloodNHS , please note that people are not "assigned" a sex. The sex is observed and recorded. This language must be changed back to neutral language away from that of activism.

In case you are not from the UK and wondering what is happening in the UK our government has lost control of our borders, is forcing taxpayers to pay £7-10 billion a year for this failure and has now decided to put the many unvetted migrants in four star hotels amid one of the worst housing and cost-of-living crises in British history

nitter.cf/cogatonline/status/194… BREAKING: The IDF just dropped a bombshell video from inside Gaza — Thousands of pallets of humanitarian aid just sitting there, untouched, waiting for the UN to pick them up. So why is the UN demanding more trucks? Why scream “famine” when they’re not even distributing the aid they already have? Simple: Because this was never about helping Palestinians. It’s about helping Hamas weaponize suffering to manipulate the world and paint Jews as Nazis. The UN and their media mouthpieces are freaking out — because their lie got caught on tape. Share this. Expose the collaboration between the UN and Hamas terrorists. End the blood libel.

Absolutely shocking scenes from Spanish airline @vueling who kicked off fifty French Jewish kids from a flight & violently arrested the group leader. This antisemitism is not happening in a vacuum. It is fueled by the lies of the media. We are in dangerous territory now.

Did @bealejonathan just list "Israel" together with Russia, Yemen and Iran as a potential missile-launching threat to the USA? At 49 minutes into the BBC Radio 4 PM programme today: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002fvh… #bbc #Antisemitism #IsraelUnderAttack

Iranians in the Netherlands march in support of Israel and call for the destruction of the Islamic regime. Not a single woman in hijab or burqa, no one is masked, and no violence. These are real refugees who fled a brutal Islamist dictatorship. Unlike fake refugees, they actually want to go back to their homeland!

This is all civilian infrastructure. No military installations are even close to Bat Yam. Suddenly, the UN is silent when Israeli civilians are being targeted.

Debate tip of the day: Think before you move! What the incident with #Musk and his #musksalute should tell us: substack.com/profile/1704326…

The fact that neo-Nazis are saying that the gesture was a Nazi salute, should make us all declare YOU CANNOT KNOW! It was a very unfortunate gesture to make, but unless you can read Musk's mind, you don't know his intentions. Being a Nazi is the least probable reason.
This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.

#Daily #debate tip: Before you rush to disagree with someone, ask them questions so that you may reach a common ground of agreement. This is called “stasis”, the bedrock of standing still before you go separate ways. open.substack.com/pub/mwhage…

The petition to abolish Orwellian 'non-crimes' has just passed 7,000 signatures! Help push this to 10,000 so the government has to respond. Let’s keep the momentum going — sign here. petition.parliament.uk/petit… Together, we can defend fairness, accountability, and free expression.

The renowned Italian journalist Cecilia Sala, who reports on civil protests and state crackdowns in Iran, has been arrested while visiting Tehran, and is currently being held in solitary confinement in the capital’s notorious Evin prison. freespeechunion.org/italian-…

A one minute truth bomb from Golda Meir. 50 years old and still absolutely relevant today. 1. Surrounded by Arab despots and tiny Israel is the problem? 2. Where was Palestine before 1967? 3. And if the 1967 borders are the key and so holy, why did the Arabs want a war in 1967?
