For ‘adverts’, see also: ‘hospitals’, ‘the Cabinet’, ‘kindergartens’, ‘the England football team’ and, of course, ‘the country’. The only way you can miss this is deliberately. And just watch them try.

Eyewitnesses say Muhammad stood with his arms folded, posing no threat, when a single, deadly shot was fired. The soldiers later appeared to celebrate. The IDF said the incident is under review.

Thank goodness, the Israelis have banned their own Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from buying tickets.
I hope it can all end now, unless they are going to be accused of antisemitism too.

The Westminster chatterati’s perception of Birmingham is so utterly deranged by this point I’m actually sitting here laughing
The way people are talking about it you’d think it was some dystopia from the Hunger Games or something

I still have no idea what Number 10 was thinking intervening over policing. If they ‘win’ the standoff, Keir Starmer personally owns any incident that happens around the match. And he’s broken the precedent of interfering in operational matters, and so will be asked to do so relentlessly.

to mention that when Tel Aviv Maccabi fans went to Amsterdam, there were reports they chanted “we will f**k the arabs” and ““There are no schools in Gaza because there are no children left.” They also pulled down Palestinian flags. They were met with attacks from locals.

This is why the Greens are rising in the polls, and why Labour have fallen so far. Labour’s ’natural supporters’ aren’t anti-immigrant. They’re not xenophobic. Labour’s leadership are alienating them, and now they have somewhere to go.
