The report on antisemitism in schools provides a fascinating study in the parallel universes independent and mainstream media occupy. Indie media has done it's job, scrutinised the report and highlighted its glaring inadequacies. The entire mainstream has simply reported it uncritically. /1

The Bell report finds that anti-Jewish attitudes are "less prevalent", while "anti-Israel sentiments are more prevalent" More here ⤵️ mee.s.gy/o4iBYs

UK antisemitism report found increase in 'anti-Israel' sentiment, not 'anti-Jewish' attitudes

New report questioned as 'three in five Jewish pupils face antisemitism' claim and other findings fall apart

We demand Labour’s legal advice on Israel’s Gaza genocide be published. All of it. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham says only a court can decide genocide. The ICJ ordered Israel to prevent genocide in 2024. A UN Commission found genocide in 2025. Palestinians deserve the truth.
Open UK Parliament petition titled “Launch a public inquiry into the UK’s role in Israeli operations in Gaza.” The petition calls for a fully independent public inquiry into any British involvement in Israeli operations in Gaza since October 2023. It specifically asks the inquiry to examine: the sale, supply or use of weapons; the use of surveillance aircraft and RAF bases; what intelligence was collected during RAF flights; and what legal advice the UK Government has sought on whether a genocide has taken place in Gaza. The petition states that the UK has played a vital role in Israeli military operations in Gaza. Status shows as Open, with Sign and Share buttons visible. The petition is signed by Jennifer Forbes with an expiring date of 23 April 2027.

The claim in Sir David Bell's report that 3 in 5 Jewish students have experienced antisemitism was based on just 29 people - and was untrue. @pularjs

In 1936 Jeremy Corbyn’s mother stood at Cable Street against Oswald Mosley, and in 2026 Oswald Mosley’s grandson, now Palantir’s UK boss, wrote to her son about his speeches in Parliament.

MI5 spied on Nye Bevan for more than 20 years, newly released files show bbc.in/4zMMzYD

MI5 spied on NHS founder Nye Bevan for more than 20 years

He came to its attention in the 1930s when he was considered a left-wing firebrand.

From arms sales to surveillance flights, Britain has played an instrumental role in Israel's destruction of Gaza. Shamefully, this government is trying to obstruct the truth. Sign this petition for a public inquiry into Britain's complicity in genocide. petition.parliament.uk/petit…

This is absolutely insane. The UK seems to have been involved in the kidnapping of Maduro - and the story spiked by an MOD D-Notice. The kidnapping was the most brazen act of criminality, and UK involvement would almost certainly have been given with Starmer's sign-off. A wretched, wreck of a PM. An unforgivable assault on international law.

🚨 A UK defence editor had information that UK Special Forces operating in Central America were involved in the US kidnapping of Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro in Jan 2026 Article was never published after UK military's 'D-Notice' censorship body told the editor to spike it

'If we don't shoot people, we won't be able to afford Band Aids.' This may not be the dumbest piece of political logic this century but it'll be on the podium.

The government has until December to decide whether to pull the NHS out of its £330m contract with Palantir - a US spy-tech firm that has facilitated genocide in Gaza. Andy Burnham needs to pick a side. We have picked ours.
