Can anyone remember the last time @BBCNews interviewed a Palestinian about their experience of the racism of Zionism? Having spent the last two weeks interviewing elderly Nakba survivors in Jordan, driven off their land in their teens because of their ethnicity and religion, I'd be happy to suggest some astonishingly articulate victims of Israeli racism who would be only too happy to tell their tragic stories of eviction, slaughter and dispossession. It is like reporting on the Civil Rights movement in the US and only interviewing outraged Whites @bbclaurak @bbcnickrobinson @JustinOnWeb @BBCr4today
“[Saying] ‘Zionism is racism’ is offensive, it’s antisemitic and it’s dangerous” Broadcaster Jo Coburn says she “watched in horror” as the Green Party passed its motion on Zionism and criticises leader Zack Polanski's defence in his #BBCLauraK interview bbc.co.uk/news/live/c64gv8k2…

Exclusively in the News Letter tomorrow, former First Minister Peter Robinson speaks on the Drumcree standoff - accusing Michelle O'Neill of deserting her role's duties, while saying republicans have failed a "two-way shared society" test after unionists backed the Fleadh

If an issue like this did actually happen why would your daughter need a safe word? All she would need to do is text “please come and get me”? These stories are always rubbish.
I dropped my daughter off at a sleepover and went home to finish some work. Around 11pm, she texted me: "Dad, did you feed the fish?" We don't have a fish. That was our code. "Fish" means: "Come get me, don't ask questions here." I grabbed my keys and drove straight over. When I got there, I told the other parents she'd forgotten she had an early appointment tomorrow morning. She grabbed her bag, thanked them, and got in the car. On the way home, she told me what actually happened. The girls had started passing around someone's older brother's Instagram messages, planning to prank call a boy from their grade and record his reaction to post online. She didn't want to be there when it happened, and didn't want to explain that to a room full of girls who thought it was funny. I told her: "You don't owe anyone an explanation for leaving," and she fell asleep in the car before we even got home. Kids should always have a way out of a situation that doesn't feel right, no interrogation required, no story owed to anyone but the parent picking them up.

I loved Dolly, but damn, her sister ain’t holding back 🙌👏
I’m here to sound the alarm again today as I’ve been doing since 2016. We are in a dire situation when a performer is pulled from a tour for simply calling out genocide in Gaza.

BREAKING: It looks like Reform UK's new candidate for Holborn & St Pancras may have lied on his CV?! Peter claims he was Acting Detective Chief Superintencdent (DCS) in March 2003 but news archives say he was a DCI - 2 ranks below - in March 2003 leading an operation to stamp our football hooligans!?! Unless Peter skipped the rank of Det Supt. to become Acting DCS in an incredibly short timeframe, it would appear he is lying. @MetCC - can you confirm if it's a criminal offence to dishonestly lie about your past rank to make a financial gain or secure a benefit they wouldn't otherwise get - like a £98,599 salary - under Section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006? newsshopper.co.uk/news/62579…

His exact quote is "Yes, we do everything to support our national security, but it can't come at the expense of social security." We all know though that it isn’t an either or as the government has a budget for many many things. It is not welfare OR defence.
He didn’t say it as she frames it, quite the opposite and I’d rather he was running the country than her. She’s a lunatic. It is genuinely baffling that the Tories have got themselves in to this state and that any Tory speaks in the manner she does on any subject. Brings me out in hives.

Complete chaos in Derry City Centre. The Foyle Bridge is closed. The prolonged delay is apparently due to the fact that @deptinfra have not turned up to make the road safe after the spillage. @LizKimminsSF please for the love of God get something done. We are in total gridlock.

This may help if it relates to the Green Party leader. xitter.cf/justbarold/status/2081…
Earlier today - Monday, 27 July - we received a third-party report relating to an image shared on social media. We take reports of this nature extremely seriously, and officers are conducting enquiries into the matter.

Dear @FoxNews, as a former Ambassador of Ireland to the USA, I respectfully request an opportunity to set the record straight about Ireland. Your interviewee has given a distorted picture. In the interests of balance, you need to hear alternative views.
“Don't come to Ireland. It's not safe.” An Irish politician is escalating the country's immigration debate after the killing of an American woman, criticizing police for not publicly identifying the man they wanted to question before he boarded a flight to Turkey. The case has reignited scrutiny of Ireland's asylum laws after reports that legal protections may have prevented authorities from publicly identifying the person of interest.

@UKScotBrit you gave a considered reply. I condemn all violence of that time. Circa 40,000 paramilitaries went to prison but very few Army even went to court. It took 38 years for the Saville Enquiry. The “forces of law and order” should be held to a higher standard?
