Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, Tina Ion, a candidate for @TheGreenParty in Newcastle

This image was posted in February by Tina Ion under her Anne Frank moniker. Look at the image and the text She is still a candidate for @TheGreenParty in Newcastle Is she fit to stand for public office? Why won’t Polanski disown & condemn her? Cc @ChronicleLive @BBCTees

@HelenWebberley I find it insane you are not serving a lengthy prison sentence, but hey, maybe one day!

@HelenWebberley @bindelj Insane that somebody with zero legal training would post a bit of the Equality Act as though it’s an answer to the accusation that they should be imprisoned for causing physical harm to vulnerable, confused, proto-gay and often autistic children

It’s not like there aren’t plenty of cases of hate crimes against Muslims to be justifiably outraged by, but that isn’t the purpose of this. The purpose is to blur the lines over what took place in Golders Green to protect the British left from scrutiny. No matter the cost.

Nobody, least of all the police, is covering up that a Muslim man was also stabbed. But he wasn’t stabbed because of his religion or ethnicity. You’re being gaslit by bigots.

The simple truth is that Zack Polanski’s supporters are bending over backwards to lessen the explicitly antisemitic nature of this attack. They are doubling and tripling down just to avoid acknowledging that Jews are being targeted, and it is shameful.

I can’t believe this even needs to be said, but a Muslim man stabbing his Muslim friend before going on an antisemitic rampage and stabbing Jews is obviously not the same. One is a hate crime, the other isn’t. The fact that the hate crime is being focused on is correct.

God, I love ⁦@HadleyFreeman⁩ - “laughter is the best pesticide” as Nabokov said, and by withering antiSemites with wit she is being both the best of Jewish and British columnists.

@jk_rowling Complex PTSD?

@bindelj All of that, and ADHD as well.

It must be difficult being Talcum X. No longer just LGBTQQIA2S+, he is now a woman, Palestine, Jewish, and the Labour Party. A huge amount on his narrow shoulders.

@N84773Novak @bindelj Have you ever felt the urge to deny you were coked up during a TV interview, though? express.co.uk/news/uk/207862…

@bindelj Is he no longer a part of ‘the British media’ then?!

In praise of Freedom In The Arts, the reality of cancellation for too many artists, and an admission I rarely make about my own experiences of this censorious, deeply unjust arts culture. Me for The Critic! ⬇️✍️ thecritic.co.uk/standing-up-fo…

@MForstater @bindelj Thank you Maya. Julie and Harriet gave me a wonderful chance and a lovely place for this discussion. I've only had one life, the unwanted Child, almost murdered at school and all of it true, I'm afraid.

The man who's spent years talking over and attacking women for defending their rights has now decided that you must belong to a protected group to express an opinion on the threats facing it.
