Özgür Özel, the leader of the opposition who is forcefully moved from his position as the party chair: "We won't back up from this way. From now on we will be on the streets, in the squares, and will organize the biggest campaign in Turkish politics."

This isn’t an internal battle over party leadership no matter how global media keeps framing it. Riot police stormed the CHP’s headquarters today, firing tear gas and rubber bullets at party members and supporters gathered outside. This is state violence against Turkey’s main opposition party.

Bilgi University, one of Turkey's first private universities, which opened in the late 1990s, was shut down today by a presidential decree with no explanation. It was always a pleasure to visit there, fantastic students and faculty. This really hits hard for many.

Jewish communities are living in fear amid rising antisemitism, including these appalling arson attacks. We must confront this. At the same time, antisemitism is being weaponised to shut down criticism of the Israeli government. Both are true. Both deeply concerning. Both Antisemitic.

There are a series of tropes from the Dark Ages to the present day that have been used by their Christian neighbours to demonise Jews and justify their murder and the dispossession of their property, culminating in the horrors of the Holocaust.
