No clothing items with association with Palestine is allowed during the ESC 2024. A Swedish singer performed during the break and is kind of banned now. Quite absurd how they are tying themselves in knots over this The singers Father is from Palestine and wearing the keffiyeh is part of his culture What next Australian singer banned from wearing a hat with a string of Corks I won't be watching the ghastly thing but I admit I find the voting amusing and the best part of the show

Prepare for more interviews like this in the build up to the election where Labour and other politicians rewrite history with their complicit friends in the media. The presenter misspeaks, it’s not “question the quality of the politicians of this country OR, that there is an element of being disingenuous”, it’s “question the quality of the politicians of this country AND, that there is an element of being disingenuous”

Mate did you just Google an interview searching for "most dislikeable people in the UK?". Those two are an absolutely vile pair. Emily Thornberry? 😅. Tbf I'm not a huge fan of Aaron Bastani (twitter) or the Asian lady either - they're both part of novara media. But she makes Emily look stupid here. Yeah she's vile mate. The condescending, patronising way she speaks to anyone she disagrees with 🤢 Also... Ash Sarkar... 🤢🤢

Decent odds on Israel to win Eurovision. Might be worth a flutter.

UK Home Office revokes visa of Palestinian student after protest speech Dana Abuqamar, who lost 15 family members in Gaza, said the Home Office revoked her visa on ‘security grounds’
The UK government has revoked the student visa of a Palestinian student who lost relatives in Gaza after she spoke at a demonstration at the University of Manchester.
Dana Abuqamar, a law student who heads the Friends of Palestine Society at the University of Manchester, said the UK government revoked her visa on “national security” grounds, after claiming she was a risk to public safety.
“The claim they are making is baseless and violates my rights as a resident here in the UK. My legal team has lodged a human rights appeal against this decision to revoke my student visa in my last and final year as a law student,” Abuqamar said, speaking to Al Jazeera English, confirming that her visa had been revoked.
Last year, Abuqamar revealed that she had lost at least 15 relatives in Gaza after the Israeli army bombed a three-storey building in the besieged enclave.
“During this genocide, the UK Home Office decided to revoke my student visa following public statements supporting the Palestinian right to exercise under international law to resist oppression and break through the siege that was illegally placed on Gaza for over 16 years,” said Abuqamar.

I have so much respect for every Jewish person out there who puts their head above the parapet when it comes to Gaza and the wider Palestinian question, they are often putting their careers at risk as well as tension between friends and family. I see it with a couple of ant-Zionist Jewish friends/neighbours whose lives are made really difficult in their own community by taking the stance they do. The movement is definitely growing, I think it won't be long before those clinging onto the narrative that Israel must be protected no matter what will find themselves facing the same challenges as those who turned a blind eye to South African apartheid back in the day.
Fight ant-Semitism with every bit of strength you have, call out the bullshit weaponising of anti-Semitism whenever you encounter it......

Respect to Gary Lineker for speaking out.
He could quite simply keep his head down and say nothing for a much easier life…….

Grim, but not at all surprising. Israel is a terrorist state that has captured and abused thousands of Palestinian hostages over many years.

Never knew he was Jewish looks the archetypal aryan blue eyed boy Myself on the other hand am looking more Jewish by the day but don't have any Jewish ancestry (that I know of and DNA ethnicity test didn't suggest either) Which I think shows what Bollocks racism is
