Reform UK’s so-called “Boriswave” rhetoric is a fantasy built on cruelty, cooked-up numbers, and Trump-style authoritarianism.

I despised Charlie Kirk’s politics, but I won’t celebrate his murder.
If democracy has any meaning left, it has to mean ballots, not bullets.
Disagreements, not assassinations.

I wouldn’t have thought many Labour MPs came into politics to strip the rights of torture survivors to be reunited with the spouses & children.
They need to take a long hard look in the mirror & ask whether Starmer, Cooper & Reeves are really the leadership their careers should be remembered with.

Aimed at a Jewish audience, but worth reading for those meeting opposition from Christians who believe we must support the government of Israel for theological reasons. If a Jewish Rabbi can’t persuade you, who can?
I just sent this out.
The Jewish people have moral frameworks for this moment.
It is a choice not to heed them.
Please let us meet this moment, let us see the shattered Temple around us, right now, and our responsibility to it.
