Here's a thread of my favourite 10 articles I've written about veganism for @Guardian, @Telegraph, @MetroUK, @Independent and @PlantBasedNews. (Please retweet!) Let's start with my piece exposing the cruelty of the dairy industry: theguardian.com/commentisfre…

There's a campaign under way to keep Ashok Kumar off the airwaves because he's too effective. That's all this is.
‘Gasps’ as Prince William appears on Graham Norton.
Days of debate over Andy Burnham’s appearance on Gogglebox.
Bread and circuses are alive and well.
I never thought I’d say this but can we hear more from @Iromg?

Replying to @JamieBrysonLLB
Jamie, without Twitter you'd be standing on an upturned milk crate outside Belfast City Hall, delivering your latest revolutionary proclamation to three Saturday shoppers and a pigeon. Yet somehow you've convinced yourself you're the commander-in-chief of unionism, given Unionism is all over the show, you found a gap- well done, you. Ffs, the delusions of grandeur are extraordinary, amusing as feck, but still delusional
You keep insisting this isn't a political rally, yet you've spent multiple posts promoting it like you're personally organising the Second Coming, putting yourself front and centre .
At this stage, it sounds less like an Orange Order event and more like a political slumber party for yourself, Carla Lockhart and Jim Allister. All that's missing is a flatbed truck, three microphones and a competition to see who can mention Sinn Féin, human rights, nationalists and Ireland most often before bedtime; my money is on Jim 'I walked away from Ulster resistance before it got scary," Allister.
And where exactly is the Orange Order in all this? It's supposedly their event, yet we hear considerably more from you than from the people you're claiming to support. The 35 Orangemen must be wondering when they'll actually get a word in, although given you keep telling us they are "old men", they really should be able to remember how divisive their presence at Drumcree was and how it cost both sides of the community
At this stage, Jamie, your political allegiances are another spectacle altogether. Who will it be next week? I see you are now running Robinson into the ground. FFS, one minute you're championing one unionist politician, the next you're practically hanging off the arm of another. Whoever gives you a passing glance or a few minutes of attention suddenly becomes your latest political soulmate. It's like watching political speed dating, except you're the only one who thinks it's a serious relationship. Embarrassing doesn't begin to cover it.
You've spent the last few weeks behaving like a child who got Twitter for Christmas and hasn't put the bloody thing down. Another proclamation, another dramatic warning, another Paisley "LITE" impression from the comfort of your armchair. Even Paisley occasionally stopped talking
Strip away the flags, the theatrical speeches and the enormous self-importance, and you're still a loyalist blogger with a background in picking up criminal convictions and despatching the odd taxi, not the commander-in-chief of unionism.
The irony is delicious. You're telling everyone this isn't political while treating Portadown like your own personal party conference.
And when the microphones are packed away, Twitter goes quiet, and the crowd goes home, you'll still be Jamie Bryson. The milk crate will be waiting outside City Hall, big fella

My new piece for @Telegraph

Violence in Britain has hit its lowest level since records began as crime continues to fall across the country, according to a major annual survey.

I love Martin O'Neill but we won the league last season mostly because the Diets and the Huns collapsed. This season he doesn’t seem particularly focused or serious. The cheeky, evasive press conference patter is starting to grate, too.
"I think it’s something we really have to look at, closing down players on the edge of the box, rather than giving them space."

Buried on page 30 of 'Sir' David Bellend's report into antisemitism in schools in the UK it explicitly says there hasn't been a rise in antisemitism, only in anti-Israel sentiment. Astonishingly fraudulent crisis/debate, all to shield a genocidal state
chas newkey-burden retweeted
The lead reviewer into antisemitism in British schools has previously been accused of singling out Muslim schools by suggesting they could potentially threaten Britain's coherence as a nation.
Sir David Bell made the remarks in 2005 when he was the head of Ofsted.
