The quality of cabinet ministers British people have been subjected to is truly shocking.

I'm on TV tonight, being a "commentator". I'll be talking about stuff I shouldn't be talking about. With handsome @PatrickChristys and beautiful @Anna_Firth (I hope). 11PM on @GBNEWS. I should have my own show or be on five times a week and paid big bucks.

At Glastonbury yesterday, a band called for “inshallah, from the river to the sea.” The crowd cheered. When I hear that phrase chanted with joy, I feel fear and - whoever you are - so should you. Most people don’t understand what it means. But it’s been used for decades by those who want to erase Jews from where their language, faith & indigenous culture began. A place that was meant to offer refuge when the rest of the world shut its door. I’ve spoken out against injustice & unbearable loss. I’ve made work about the ‘Nakba’ & the ongoing trauma of Palestinians. But “from the river to the sea” doesn’t call for peace. It calls for a world without Jews. You can stand for Palestinian rights without denying Jewish ones. You can oppose a government without wishing away a people. If your activism leaves no room for someone else’s safety, grief or history it’s not activism. It’s hate.

Some nonentity rapper shouts ‘death, death to the IDF’ from a Glastonbury stage. The audience of idiots repeat the refrain, again and again. It’s effectively a call for a second Holocaust because the IDF is all that stands between Israel and a second Holocaust. And the BBC broadcast it live. Which at least let us see with our own eyes how Glastonbury can morph from music concert to Nazi-style rally, more Nuremberg than Glasto.

@EamonnHolmes I have been following your health journey and I’m so sad to see the place you’re in right now even though, thank goodness, you’ve kept that Irish wit thriving. I hope that fall off the chair last week hasn’t made things worse.

He’s deleted it now but this is what ⁦@kanyewest⁩ posted a few minutes ago. It’s shocking, disgusting anti-Semitism, and everyone should call it out for what it is.

My lunch out in London. 200 grams of raw beef on a paper plate. I'm now extra committed to lowering my sugar intake to less than 40g a day. Maybe 30g. The results of my CT heart scan showed slight calcification. I'd been eating about 125g of carbs a day, which promoted calcification. Calcification is bad and unnecessary. Photo of me today weighing 80.3 kgs at 5'10".

@LewisSchaffer I still think you are a walking time bomb. I don’t believe there is one medical specialist that would accept your blood pressure being okay and feel happy that you walk out of the surgery without treatment. You are also working in a stressful job you are just very lucky so far.

@LewisSchaffer That is a very low reading isn’t it?. I was called back when mine was just 68 in April for a second blood test a month later and it was back to 80.

I'm up early in London and treat myself with a double sausage - double egg from Burger King with a cup of white Americano. 1/8th of the bun. 550 calories. Awaiting test results from CT heart scan and kidney tests. Fingers crossed.

Back from Kings College Hospital Renal Outpatient. No urine test done, just blood work, and a prescription for a SGLT2 inhibitor Forxiga, which is said to lower my blood sugar (already low) and make me lose weight. Looking into this even though I'm no-pharma, ATM. Feel the pain of late state kidney disease people! My first food at 5PM. 1100 calories. Join me tonight on @GBNEWS!
