Hard disagree. It’s amazing this happens. 30 years ago it would have led to a riot. It was only 40 years ago when John Paul II visited and there were missiles thrown at the Pope and the SNP wanted him banned from arriving. Even in the 2010 visit, there was massive tension.
Whether it be Islamic or Christian, this excessively public display of prayer does nothing but show that you’re more concerned with optics than any actual meaningful relationship with God. So, so pretentious

The Daily Mail aren’t using your family to go after you; your family—the people who know you best—are using the Daily Mail to go after you.
This is why Daily Mail journalists are going after my family now. The right wing propaganda machine will not work on the Green Party. We're ready to end Rip Off Britain, end the cost of living crisis and make hope normal again.

No you’re not. Benjamin Disraeli, Michael Howard, Ed Miliband etc.
For whoever needs to hear this I'm the only Jewish person to lead a political party - third largest in the country. The Daily Mail have been & always will be my enemy - they historically supported fascists & continue to do so. I'll take no lectures from them on Antisemitism.

🚨NEW: Zack Polanksi's own family say they fear they would have to leave the UK if he ever became Prime Minister "It's like a chicken telling everyone to vote for KFC," one family member said [@DailyMail]

The modern progressive left are, at this point, more regressive than Ezekiel.
UN Delegates just voted to recognise the Transatlantic slave trade as a crime against humanity. Britain abstained. This refusal to support this motion only places our government more at odds with the global majority. The call for reparatory justice is only getting louder.

British history seems to consist in large part of us making the world objectively better for everybody, getting no credit for it, and then once our empire was exhausted the same people we helped cynically lying about our history in order to get money from us.
As Ghana calls for reparations and the left wing media rush to reinforce the white guilt some may feel, it is notable that none use this photo of a British Sailor removing the chains from a freed slave. Great Britain ended the slave trade and paid in blood and coin. No charge.

The LDP (Takaichi's party) has been in power almost continuously since 1955. If you don't like Japan and how it is run, why did you choose to move here? You are a guest. You aren't obliged to like the prime minister but this is ridiculously low class behavior.

The most middle class people in the wealthiest, freest societies in history vote in leftist politicians who then fly out to lecture brutalised Cuban peasants who’ve spent their lives being immiserated under communism about why the West is evil and socialism is great

Note @nicolas_richoux specifically citing the threat to invade Greenland. I *cannot* emphasise enough how much this event has caused a collapse in trust between the US and Europe.

This was Trump's immediate response today after learning that a former director of the FBI had died. It seems there is no depth to which this depraved man will not sink.

Jesus wept. Started a crazy war. Watched it unravel. Now signals a retreat and insists that other countries - who rightly wanted no part of it in the first place - go in and clear up the mess he created. What an appalling president. What a shameful episode.

I don’t think anyone in the British military will worry about having their bravery questioned by a draft dodging American coward.
