Someone needs to tell Shabana Mahmood that the strategy of putting a minority Home Secretary in to sanitise the racism only works if you don't call this much attention to it.
Shabana Mahmood asks MPs to stop mentioning Tommy Robinson's name (in relation to his support for her policies) as "he doesn't even think I am English. I find that offensive."

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

People are rude about Matt Forde as a comedian, just because he's not that funny, but actually as a podcast host I think he's very insightful, and often has on guests and thought leaders who prove to be very influential, years later

Fine Gael is a centre-right party except when it's a far-right party
All four Fine Gael MEPs voted with the far-right: Nina Carberry, Regina Doherty, Seán Kelly, Maria Walsh

Independent Ireland MEP Ciaran Mullooly also sided with the far-right

The centre-right abandoned talks with the greens, centre-left and liberals on an alternative deal
EU conservatives vote with far right to approve cuts to green rules
The outcome highlights the EPP’s willingness to abandon its traditional centrist coalition allies.

Extremely Annie Wilkes voice: "he didn't get out of the cockadoody car!"
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."
