The part of Mamdani's speech that I found most exciting was "you dismantle the conditions that allowed him to gain power. That's how we stop Trump — and the next one."

We need popular political figures to point out that Trump is not an anomaly and there are plenty more to take his place.

I am horrified by the news of multiple stabbings at a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur.

My thoughts are with the loved ones of the victims of this heinous antisemitic attack.

We must defend a society where people of all faiths can practice their religion in safety and peace

Tony Blair’s catastrophic decision to invade Iraq cost thousands upon thousands of lives.

He shouldn’t be anywhere near the Middle East, let alone Gaza.

It is not up to Blair, Trump or Netanyahu to decide the future of Gaza. That is up to the people of Palestine.
