Similar stats were available during the Corbyn period, from multiple sources, all flatly contradicting the media narrative about antisemitism being 'rampant' in Labour/The Left. Summarised by me in debate with Melanie Phillips etc., here... stephenlaw.blogspot.com/2019/02/my-i...

Left- Tel Aviv school principal says, "Arabs are inferior to us. That is why we can kick and slap Palestinians. We train dogs so they will bite them. That's why we shoot them. They're nothing"! Right- Former IDF soldier explains how the IDF would invade homes of innocent Palestinians to cause fear

The T Rex (66-70m years ago) lived closer to our time than to the Brontosaurus (163-145m)

Paul Holden's book The Fraud is carefully researched and utterly riveting. It is deliberately ignored by the mainstream media because it exposes their own complicity in what went on. They want it quietly forgotten about.

Self-portraitmid-1980s.

The German police have no issue with this abomination of a placard. But they don't hesitate to arrest and beat up anyone who campaigns for equal political rights from the river to the sea!

An extremely carefully worded statement that does not oppose but merely expresses a 'worry' about the fact that Israel is applying entirely differing penalties depending on ethnicity.

Is philosophy a waste of time? Me with a few examples of things you can show by means of armchair, philosophical reflection... www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mGn...

Recently met a philosophy prof who said my book is what first got them into philosophy. Many philosophy undergrads came to the subject cos read it when young. If you want your kids to study something sensible, like business administration, for goodness sake don't give them a copy.

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.

Little old me heading into the big old Sheldonian theatre for the Oxford literary festival You Ask The Questions panel! 😳😊😊 wish me luck!

We need to be absolutely clear: there is no revival of Christianity in Britain. For almost a year, we have taken a rational, evidence-based approach, repeatedly and rigorously explaining why the Bible Society’s claims did not stand up. Today, they retracted them. www.thetablet.co.uk/news/bible-s...

What the hell is with this timeline? The Islamic Republic of Iran is using Lego cartoons to troll Trump. Just burn all your 2026 Bingo cards. We're well off the map now.

The #QuietRevival report – which drove huge headlines about a ‘spiritual revival’ in Britain – has now been officially debunked. The Bible Society has retracted its claims today, citing unreliable YouGov data. Here’s what happened. ⬇️

Your regular reminder that if the UK could only achieve the same outcomes for immigrant integration as Denmark.... ...we'd be significantly poorer, with 100s of thousands fewer jobs, much worse schools, and be a more segregated, more divided society.

Excellent turnout and conversation on our panel “Is Democracy under Threat from Oligarchs and Corporate Capture?” at the Oxford Literary Festival today with @oliverbullough.bsky.social @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social and @stephenlaw.bsky.social

Grim.

You ask the question - panel debate and audience Q&A in Sheldonian Theatre this Thursday. With Zoe Gardner, Paul Holden, Albie Amankona, and Rick Kelsey. Chaired by Yasmin Alibhai-Brown oxfordliteraryfestival.org/literature-e...

If every top Democrat doesn’t immediately condemn this threat of war crimes and collective punishment, without any ‘process’ BS complaints, then they should be primaried instantly. They’ll be complicit in this crime if they don’t speak out. Tainted forever.

The United Nations has warned of “ethnic cleansing” committed by Israel in the occupied West Bank, citing the displacement of more than 36,000 Palestinians over the past year. Read: www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260318-un-...

I was proud to stand with @sanders.senate.gov & endorse candidates who stood against war, against big money, and for justice. I lost twice before I won, including an anti-Iraq war campaign, and Bernie lost 4 times before he won. In the long run, principles matter.

💁‍♂️Trump says Iran is very unfairly blocking the Strait of Hormuz because the US has already won the war. “It’s even unfair on their part. We already won! They have no right to keep doing what they’re doing.”

Secularism (n.) The principle of separating the state from religious institutions to promote fairness, freedom, peace, and equality for everyone. Secularists (n.) People who agree with, support, or advocate for secularism. Secularists can be religious or non-religious. #Secularism 🧵

A woman who told a crowd that Hamas is "fighting for freedom" has been found not guilty of expressing support for a proscribed organisation. "I would never condemn the resistance of Palestinians because their resistance is due to the occupation.” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

So let me get this straight: a team won’t play in the US World Cup because they’re being threatened and bombed by the FIFA Peace Prize winner? Got it. apnews.com/article/fifa...

Illinois has same-day voter registration! Make sure you show up at YOUR assigned polling place with 2 forms of ID!

Zoe Gardner, Jonathan Portes, Simon Heffer - The Immigration Debate: Legitimate Concerns or Mainstreaming racism? One of the events I organised and will chair at Oxford Lit festival. March 24th. Tickets: oxfordliteraryfestival.org/literature-e...

Just to clarify - this is very much Prof. Jonathan Portes VERSUS Prof. David Betz. Not a Musk promotional event, as some have assumed. Not an ideal gender balance, true, but the balance is good across all the events with which I'm involved - it can be trickier getting balance right within event.

Has socialism's time come? Zoe Gardner, James Schneider, Zoe Strimpel and Eric Heinz debate March 27th at the Lit. Fest. Chaited by me. Tickets: oxfordliteraryfestival.org/literature-e...

We’ve launched a brand new animation explaining what #secularism is and why it matters in an increasingly diverse society. Our short film, What is secularism?, is now available to watch on the @humanismedu.bsky.social website. 🧵 understandinghumanism.org.uk/secularism/

This is great - very helpful resource. @humanists.uk . understandinghumanism.org.uk/secularism/

Me yesterday. Inews today. No, I am not psychic - if you know anything about Starmer and this Labour Government, it was fairly predictable.

Jamaal has some words of encouragement.... @jamaalbowmanny.bsky.social

The pro-Israel, crypto, and AI lobbies have spent $21M+ to influence tomorrow's Illinois primary via innocuously-named Super PACs like "Elect Chicago Women". Not a single one of their ads mentions Israel, crypto, or AI. Citizens United is corrupting our system every day.

Students have more power than politicians want to admit. Your rent is here. Your tuition is here. Your vote should be here too. TOMORROW is election day, don’t sit this one out!

If we want to motivate voters of all ages, we have to try something different. I propose kindness, authenticity, and unapologetic progressivism. People power over entrenched power. That’s the future.

Oscar-nominated, “The Voice of Hind Rajab" is up for best international feature film. Trump barred Wesam Hamada, Hind’s mom and Motaz Malhees, an actor starring in the film, from entering the country due to their Palestinian citizenship.

They’re all quite mad.

Decimated - reduced by 1/10th.

Never mind that “decimated” means “reduced by one-tenth”
