Extraordinary behaviour from an ambassador!

Irish Ambassador to Israel Sonia McGuinness is finally dealing with antisemitism. No, not the fact that her homeland is full of Jew-hate, but the real problem: those Jews who keep noticing it. Send her home. Israel doesn’t need dealings with Ireland.

More colleagues have joined me and @stuartandrew in opposing an NHS puberty-blocker trial on vulnerable children. Medicine should protect, not experiment to satisfy activist dogma. We will not stand for it. @wesstreeting must put a stop to this dangerous trial immediately.

No child is born in the wrong body. I cannot believe we are back to square one, with NHS England backing an experimental trial of puberty blockers on healthy, vulnerable children, ignoring the damage already done. The No1 rule of medicine is "do no harm". This is activist

Sinn Féin’s Pearse Doherty has some cheek lecturing on the morality of naming a park after Chaim Herzog, when his party named a Newry play park after PIRA member Raymond McCreesh, detained for attempted murder, and a gun linked to the Kingsmill murders. The rewriting continues!

"The UK has become the only country in the world to secure a zero per cent tariff on pharmaceuticals exported to the US" Say it with me everyone, loud and clear so all the nutjobs can hear it from the rooftops. BREXIT BENEFIT! 🥳 https://t.co/yqxR0pO94w

The Labour MP resigned her ministerial post earlier this year after she was accused of illegally receiving a plot of land from her aunt. She was being tried in absentia.

I am pretty sure that by the letter of the law, Tulip Siddiq is now disqualified from sitting as an MP under the Representation of the People Act 1981. "Whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere." "While unlawfully at large."

I rather enjoy the PM's wide-eyed, startled stare, which he does when posed a question he doesn't like the sound of. For some reason it reminds me of C-3P0's permanently fussy and frightened expression

Another school this week faces closure because of Labour’s vindictive VAT rise. Almost 90 schools have closed since it was imposed last year. In any sane world, parents would get tax rebates for paying school fees - thereby saving the taxpayer millions.

Dublin has become the capital of antisemitism in the world. The Dublin Municipality has decided to remove the name of Chaim Herzog, Israel's 6th president, Dublin-born and son of Ireland's Chief Rabbi, from a local park. Irish antisemitism and anti-Israeli obsession is real.

Rightly lots of debates about growth this weekend - rightly because it was low productivity growth that saw wages entirely flatline during the 2010s.

Glad to see .@afneil joining me in pointing out Keir Starmer's political background. 'In the mid-1980s, Starmer was on the editorial board of Socialist Alternatives, a tiny, obscure Trot-inclined magazine that billed itself as ‘the human face of the hard Left’.

To break one manifesto promise may be regarded as unfortunate. To break two in one week is not so much careless - as Oscar Wilde would have it - as par for the course.

Right so … Rachel Reeves either was too stupid to understand the figures the OBR gave her OR she lied again about a ‘black hole’ in order to raise taxes to pay off the back benchers and membership. They can be no other explanations can there?

Dublin City Council cannot accept a park in Dublin named after an Irish born President of 🇮🇱. It can however accept a statue in a Dublin Park to an Irish born Nazi who was collaborating with Germany to place bombs in 🇬🇧 cities during WW2. That's 🇮🇪 in 2025 folks.
