@Anarchasm @freddiesgranny @fishface60 @CraigMurrayOrg @MrMalky We expect 1000s of volunteers to work in charity shops, collection points, at fund raising events etc. so there’s surely retired CEOs who could also give their time for free. Or is their retirement time more valuable than ours? It’s a cartel, if one did they’d all have to do it.

@Handre Hyperbolic nonsense.

George Bernard Shaw stood in Stalin's USSR in 1931, watching millions starve to death, and declared there was no famine at all. The Nobel Prize-winning playwright didn't just stay silent about the horror unfolding around him. He actively promoted the lie that would help Stalin cover up one of history's greatest atrocities. Shaw toured Ukraine during the height of the Holodomor, when Soviet grain requisitions had stripped peasants of every scrap of food. Conservative estimates put the death toll at 3.5 million Ukrainians. Shaw saw the empty villages, the skeletal survivors, the mass graves. Then he signed a public letter praising Stalin's "remarkable progress" and told Western journalists that reports of famine were capitalist propaganda. Why would an intelligent man become Stalin's useful idiot? Shaw believed in central planning with religious fervor. He thought brilliant intellectuals like himself could design society better than millions of individuals making their own choices. When confronted with central planning's inevitable result (mass death), he chose to lie rather than admit his ideology killed people. Shaw preferred beautiful theory to ugly facts. Shaw deliberately used his celebrity status to give Stalin cover while Ukrainian children died of starvation. He returned to Britain and spent years defending Soviet policies, even as refugee testimonies and photographic evidence exposed the genocide. The man who wrote about moral awakening in "Pygmalion" had abandoned his own moral compass entirely. Free market economists warned that socialist calculation was impossible, that without prices and property rights, economies would collapse into chaos and death. Shaw dismissed these warnings as bourgeois nonsense while standing ankle-deep in their vindication.

@koshercockney Israel murdered any children today yet?

Never forget that Keir Starmer recognised a “Palestinian State” while there were still hostages trapped in Hamas’ terror tunnels and Hamas still rule Gaza. He rewarded hostage taking and terrorism.

@BelissaCohen No, you’re playing the victim card, but no one is buying it this time.

One thing I love about the Jews—no matter how bad it gets, we aren’t playing the victim card—we’re playing the survivor card. We’re playing the fighter card, the winner card. That’s why we’re still here.

@KevMcnee @Jason67136815 Tell us you don’t know the rules without saying it. 🙄

@Jason67136815 His hand is up high and makes contact with the ball doesn’t really matter how it’s there it’s clear as day it’s a handball

Only in Scotland would managers and pundits say this isn’t a handball 😆 it’s clear as day

@KevMcnee So clear the referee missed it. Sit the fuck down you moron.

@scottmcgrezmiw @ToddFergusonNAA You’re a disgrace to Scotland.

@ToddFergusonNAA Should never have been there 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

No, John, Scotland won’t ‘move on’! Some scars never heal!

@DaleySteven @asimrabbani Another half wit posting AI nonsense. 🙄

The meltdown over this handball decision is laughably over the top. At best you could argue it’s controversial & could have gone either way but the more you look at it in slow mo and properly you can see it’s clearly hit his hand. The Hibs goal against us last week was 10x worse

@bfchild66 @Glinner What a stupid post.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Wonderful news. Those virtue signing countries who opposed Israel taking part need to be reminded that it should be all about the music & not their political objectives. To punish a whole nation because of the actions of their government is pure spite and hate and they should all be ashamed.

Let's hear it for the only country in the Middle East with gay rights!

@Glinner Let’s not. They murder children.

@citizentommy Look at the shape of the ball you halfwit. 🙄

A stonewall penalty. Ranting about a non-existent red card on Saturday and yet Hartley sits there and joins in the blue nose blindness. He should hang his head in shame. Saint Martin was right. The penalty could have been awarded for hand ball or foul play with his elbow. Bring on Saturday 🙏👏👏👏👏🍀

@Malammore1888 @chris_sutton73 AI nonsense.

@chris_sutton73 Stonewaller!

Now the dust has settled.. The reaction from many high profile people is way over the top. John Beaton was advised to go to the monitor and saw that the ball hit the arm in an unnatural position Bottom line is people would hate to see Celtic win the title again and that is all.

@Adi13 Why?

Amazing 👏🏼 New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Queens Borough President Donovan Richards announced Tuesday that a new $3 million Holocaust memorial will be built at Queens Borough Hall, honoring the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and the survivors who rebuilt their lives in the city.

@EdwardJDavey Maybe people should scrutinise your past. They wouldn’t have to go back 50 years either, would they Mr Davey? A dozen years to the start of the Post Office scandal would do for a start. Don’t you agree?

First the Nathan Gill Russian bribery scandal, now this. Nigel Farage is finally getting scrutiny for his past, and just like his idol Donald Trump he doesn't like it.

@IAmClintMurphy @AJWVictoriaBC Bullshit

To those who deny that antisemitism is live and well in western democracies, how do you explain the image below? Imagine if another nation's flag was on the door instead. The outrage would be deafening #bcpoli #cdnpoli

@AJWVictoriaBC Except that isn’t anti-semitic, it’s anti Israel.

@HowardA_AtLaw No one’s buying your bullshit anymore. Criticism of Israel is not antisemitic, neither is the criticism of Zionism.

Remember when Mark Ruffalo, who is not Jewish and has no Jewish family, picked a fight with the *International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance* over its definition of antisemitism? Fun times.

@curatorWH Don’t you mean Sigmund Fraud?

@thevoicetruth1 @AriSGoldberg Your arrogance is astounding. Get it through your head, Jews are NOT special, you don’t get to ‘demand’ anything anymore. People finally woke up and you lost the privilege most bestowed on you for over 80 years when you started the genocide in Palestine.

More people died in Sudan in ONE WEEK than in TWO YEARS of the Gaza conflict, yet there are no marches, no hashtags, no celebrity Instagram posts. Where has everyone disappeared ? We demand an answer ! Video @AriSGoldberg

@rich_toronto That’s because you don’t need numbers, you just bribe the politicians of other countries to do your bidding, as you’ve done for decades.

Jews have always been a minority. Jews will always be a minority. We have no intent or desire to outnumbers others. We don’t try to proselytize others. In fact, if you ask a rabbi to convert you, they will likely say “no” or try to dissuade you, in order to make sure it’s something you genuinely desire, and not just a whim. We don’t want to rule or control the world. We don’t want to invade or conquer countries or steal land. We don’t want to run the world. We want to be allowed to live in peace. Without having to constantly be on alert that rockets are going to be fired as us constantly or that there are people planning our demise. We want to raise families. And contribute to building whatever societies we live in. We want to help fix the world. We want to be left the fuck alone. We have a country. One. Less countries than the Christians, the Muslims or the Hindus. We’re ok with that. We don’t need more. We’re not trying to get more. We just want the one that’s ours. The one that’s always been ours. We don’t want more. But we’re going to fight like hell to keep the one we have.

@eligoldman @GAZAWOOD1 All of that means absolutely nothing in the 21st century you utter cretin. 😂

@GAZAWOOD1 Strange… I don’t see any “ancient Palestine” coins. Just Judea, Israel, and the same Jewish symbols across millennia.

A coin of Mattathias Antigonus, King of Judea, bearing the symbol of the Menorah - minted over 2,000 years ago, and next to it a coin of the modern State of Israel. This is truly amazing.
