@HJB_News__ If the Muslim community and the political Left can’t stand against jihadism, it is only a matter of time before their moral blindness leads to rightwing authoritarianism in the West. If secular liberals won’t create secure borders, fascists will. And that is a badworld

During a debate in the House of Lords, Baroness Hussein raised concerns over anti-Muslim rhetoric heard during the Unite the Kingdom rally in London, including chants calling for Muslims to leave the country.
Baroness Hussein said Muslims have helped build Britain and serve the country across sectors including education and the NHS and it’s their country.

This is quite incredible ‘reporting’ by BBC News
Uni student left to die in handcuffs having been accused of being racist. What happened needs full investigation into Southampton Poloce
Bbc: A Sikh man fatally stabbed a university student in the street because he feared being attacked with his own Sikh blade, a court has heard.
Henry Nowak, 18, from Chafford Hundred, Essex, was killed as he walked back from a night out in Southampton on 3 December.
Vickrum Digwa, 23, told Southampton Crown Court Nowak was drunk and "barged" into him as they met at night on a pavement, leading to a violent altercation.
The defendant, who denies murder and carrying a knife in public, said he used his kirpan after Nowak punched him and pulled his hair.
Digwa told the jury: "I thought I had to do something because I was afraid that he was going to stab me with my own kirpan."
Is this coverage consistent with other coverage ?!

Katie Price says she has 'given up the search' for her missing husband Lee Andrews after a week of his bizarre disappearance in Dubai.
On her podcast The Katie Price Show, the 47-year-old revealed she's stepping back "for her own sanity" and will no longer speak publicly about the case.
She confirmed British police, the consulate, Foreign Office and Interpol are now handling the investigation.
Katie cut her emotional update short when she received a live call from the police during the recording.
Lee, 43, vanished last Wednesday after allegedly sending frantic messages claiming he had been arrested, cuffed and taken to a "black site" while trying to board a flight home.
The saga continues

I can still remember buying an A4 sized section of the hallowed turf of St James’ Park from Benton Garden Centre back in the 90’s.

@Sewelld22 @MadMickToonDJ @toonchants My guess is they’ve bought it so to allow building of stand where previously because of “ right to light” they previously would have had objections

Newcastle United have acquired Leazes Terrace. It is a Grade1 listed building but it can be moved to a different location.

I should add that Makerfield has had a Labour MP since the constituency was created in 1983.
It’s been run by a Labour council since it fell within the Wigan local authority in 1974.
It falls within the ambit of the Greater Manchester mayor, who is also Labour (that would be you — for now).
There was a Labour government between 1997 and 2010 (of which you were a part) with huge majorities.
These is a Labour government in power now, with an even bigger majority.
So it’s a bit odd to blame Makerfield’s woes on a PM who left office in 1990.
I understand she left a legacy you don’t like. But you and your party have had more than enough time to clean it up. Why would more time make any difference?

Nice to hear from you, Andy. Thanks for the by election. We live for such things. I’m in no doubt life is tough for lots of folk in Makerfield. But it’s hardly a poster child for urban squalor/deprivation. Thatcher left power in 1990. She was followed by seven years of unThatcher Major and 13 years of Labour government, of which you were a part. So it’s quite a stretch to blame her for any continuing woes. Unless we blame Labour for failing to put anything right. On the other hand the houses you were walking past were bought by the tenants under Thatcher’s right to buy scheme, which has given them some pride in place and some wealth they once could only have dreamt of accumulating. I assume your pledge to ‘renationalise housing’ does not include taking these homes back into public ownership ... even if that would constitute a proper, radical reversal of the Thatcherism you’re (some what bizarrely) campaigning against.

One of the most effective bits of political communication on the left I’ve seen in a long time. A message and a powerful messenger.

Let’s not forget Lewis Miley by the way.

@NE5westend @swinburne_mark I’m only worried that Howe has his relative involved in any major scouting decision making . Smacks of a feature club made to appease him to sign .

@swinburne_mark Hopefully:
Willock
Elanga
Wissa
Pope
Murphy (past it)
Others going:
Gordon
Tonali
Tino
Contracts end:
Tripps (he’ll be back in future)
Kraft
Schar (I’d keep another year)
Target
Ruddy (pointless)
Gillespie (stole a living)
Ramsdale loan over
Therefore a humongous rebuild

From TODAYS squad who do YOU think has made their very LAST home appearance at St James’ Park?
