Hi @zubirahmed, as the Labour candidate for my constituency, Glasgow Southwest: what do you think about another of your party's candidates - who is not Jewish - making this antisemitic statement about Jews like me, and many others in your prospective constituency?

This is beyond shameful. Solidarity with University of Glasgow Rector @GhassanAbuSitt1.
@UofGlasgow management should condemn the German government and extend support to Dr Ghassan.

Invited to address a conference in Berlin about my work in Gaza hospitals during the present conflict.
The German government has forcibly prevented me from entering the country
Silencing a witness to genocide before the ICJ adds to Germany's complicity in the ongoing massacre.
Extremely concerning. What is @UofGVC and @UofGlasgow doing to support our Rector?
Just now the German airport security is holding doctor @GhassanAbuSitt1 and refusing to allow him to enter the country. He is supposed to speak at the Palestine Congress today in Berlin!
This country is an absolute menace.

Incredibly moving speech from @GhassanAbuSitt1 for his rectorial address yesterday. Goosebumps. An absolute honour to have been there, for the first time in a while I left with my heart feeling full and with hope for positive change.

1. Lately I have been paying more attention to the groups of my fellow Jews who are describing themselves as persecuted because of the global objections (by other Jews and the rest of the world) to the brutal slaughter in Gaza.

A lorry driver blocked off abortion protesters outside the QEUH today
Protesters phoned the police - they accused the driver of being drunk - but officers took no action
When he heard someone ask if this would be a regular thing, the driver said: “As often as I can”
There are many of us Jewish Arsenal fans who support the Palestinian cause. We don't want to see protest suppressed by unsubstantiated innuendo that equates Palestinian solidarity with antisemitism. This was irresponsible journalism.
Last night, @Guardian published this article about a protest we organised at Arsenal v Tottenham’s North London Derby.
We have made a formal complaint for breach of editorial code (incl. no right of reply) but we’ll save those details for another day. 👀

Please follow this account and support the work to fight precarity and all its consequences at @UofGlasgow. With the resources our institution has at its disposal, the continued underpayment of our most precarious colleagues is truly shocking
Greetings comrades! The UCUG anti-casualisation group are resurrecting this account. Please share and help us build our followers as we intensify our efforts to tackle casualisation at @UofGlasgow

As a Jewish Arsenal fan, this is truly pathetic.
People have a right to protest, particularly the slaughter of tens of thousands in Gaza.
