Daughter having day out from London in Brighton yesterday ran into team putting up English flags everywhere - she thought they were roofing contractors - they seemed quite threatening. Seems she was actually witnessing something a bit more sinister

People have been spotted attaching St George's flags to lampposts in the city centre.

The idea that someone would “pose” as a journalist by doing live reporting all day, every day, for two straight years — but is actually secretly a terrorist (when??) — is so stupid it demonstrates how much power Israel believes it has. Their excuse for assassinating a world
A short while ago, in Gaza City, the IDF struck the terrorist Anas Al-Sharif, who posed as a journalist for the Al Jazeera network. Al-Sharif served as the head of a Hamas terrorist cell and was responsible for advancing rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF troops.

The course I teach at Cambridge has become exorbitantly expensive and is inaccessible for most people. So I've decided to share the entire reading list with the public — here, via this thread. My course is called "Development Economics" and consists of 8 lectures. 🧵
