@steveeypips Stay safe #amyisraelchai

Got home from a dog walk to find my car doused in something. Emergency services were incredible & confirmed it's a solvent. Given past vandalism, it’s being treated as a hate crime. Grateful it wasn’t worse, but it leaves me questioning how safe I really am. To be a Jew in 2025.

These were the heartbreaking and powerful words by an Arab Israeli news anchor shortly after October 7. You can feel the emotion in her voice. The anger. The pain. And her heart completely with her people… the Israeli people. We are the only country in the region where Jews and Muslims live side by side in peace and with equal rights. Our IDF is made up of Jews, Christians, Muslims and others fighting as one to defend our land. OUR land… against the evil the Islamists unleashed on us as they have for centuries, and as they have on countless other peoples and lands. Her words will never be forgotten

I was in Wales today where beautiful countryside, prime grazing land, is being covered in giant windmills twice the height of Big Ben. Each propeller bigger than a jumbo jet. The “green jobs” being created are in China. It’s corrupt, toxic and evil.

Israel rocks 💪🏼

@Danjsalt The Dolphin pipeline connects Ras Laffan with UAE and Oman - Saudis have pipeline between Gulf and Red Sea.

Correct Both Iran and the Gulf states will build around it Iraq will I expect connect to both

Ed Miliband is still refusing to grant new North Sea licences. Time and again, Keir Starmer has U-turned under pressure. I won’t stop pushing until he overrules Ed Miliband and does what everyone knows is right. Let’s get our oil and gas out of the ground. Fuel Britannia!

Total nonsense Labour is destroying the economy We now have the highest tax burden since the 1940s Since the General Election... Inflation is up Unemployment is up Youth unemployment is massively up Business closures up Deindustrialisation up Energy costs up (moving costs to taxation isn't a saving) Gilt yields higher NHS waiting lists higher Educational outcomes lower Speech being restricted Antisemitism out of control And they tried to cancel elections

@Madz_Grant Tunes of Glory.

Feel like pure shit, just want the King's Own Scottish Borderers back

20 years since every Scottish infantry regiment was amalgamated into just one as part of a Blairite cost-cutting exercise – and with it, the loss of historic regiments like the Black Watch and the Royal Scots (then the oldest in the British army) – isn't something to celebrate!

BBC puts out climate alarmist propaganda not journalism.

I find these people utterly terrifying. Terrifying. Stupidity is terrifying.

@ChDellen @Booksmiscellany On the River Cher in the Loire region? I've walked across that bridge underneath the chateau.

A bit of a distorted history. Here are some basic facts... 1. The vast majority of Arabs in Palestine were not the indigenous population. They were imports from surrounding countries who came in search of jobs and opportunities with the Jewish industries and enterprises. 2. In 1922 Haj Amin al Husseini [a close ally of Hitler and, later, a fugitive from a British death sentence] was appointed Grand Mufti and he stirred the jihadist religious pot which caused Arabs to riot against the Jewish population. 3. In 1922, Britain gave the largest part of Mandatory Palestine to the Arabs to create the state of Trans-Jordan [now call Jordan] 4 . As a result of the riots, the Peel Commission offered to partition the remainder of Palestine [now called 'little Palestine'] so that areas which were predominantly Arab would form a new Palestinian Arab state, and those predominantly Jewish would form a Jewish state. This the Arabs rejected outright. 5. The United Nations made a similar offer in 1947 and again it was totally rejected by the Arabs 6. In 1967, after a 3rd war for survival [and incidentally long before there was an occupational or settlements], and after capturing the territories, Israel offered their return in exchange for only one thing >> an end to Arab belligerence [an offer embedded in UN Security Council Resolution 242], and this too was rejected by the Arabs -- as were later similar offers in 2000 and 2008. 7. In 2005 Israel completely withdrew from Gaza, in the hope of creating a model for peaceful coexistence. This was an opportunity for the Palestinian arabs to create and mini Dubai in Gaza. But no. All Palestinian efforts went into firing barrages of rockets at Israeli civilians [which eventually forced Egypt and Israel to impose a blockade in 2007] 8. Why? Because the Palestinian leadership are not half as interested in creating a state for their own people as they are in destroying the tiny Jewish state and that is why they rejected every offer of statehood and always chose war instead. 9. The Palestinian problem is a self made problem . It was made by them and it can easily be solved by them. If they abandon their traditional hatred violence and belligerence; if they jettison the jihadist leaders they have had since 1922; if they re-educate their children in love - instead of in hatred and violence; if they commit to living in genuine peace alongside Israel, they will have a state peace and prosperity..... Is that asking too much ??

@maxkarpis @FT @business Unfriendly fire from trad-fi organs.

By getting Revolut info only from @FT or @business, one is doomed not to get the full picture. These titles publish great insider scoops or info from press releases, but lack a broader perspective, leaving massive gaps. They almost never mention info released by third parties.

This is an act of terrorism on our Jewish community. This isn’t just about damage, it’s about sending fear through a whole group of people. And it will only get worse if we keep pretending antisemitism isn’t a real and growing danger taking hold in our city. We cannot keep reacting after an attack, leadership means stopping this before it happens.

A very accurate description of Islamist hatred of Jews, from the Palestinian Arabs to the Iranian regime. Well done.

@ClaireCoutinho @TufnellHenry This is precisely the problem. Netzero and social justice are mutually exclusive. Obsession with the 'environment' means you have stopped caring about people.

It is a difficult thing to say your party has got it wrong. We all care about the environment but making our people poor while the world watches is making us a warning not an example. Kudos to @TufnellHenry for his bravery today.

RT @MelanieLatest: This political menace joins forces with Islamists, vilifies Israel and Zionists with defamatory lies and incitement, his…

Failure to admit that fossil fuels have been the driver of the most unprecedented improvement in human health, longevity, wealth and freedoms in human history, and that abolishing their use therefore necessarily risks immense harm should disqualify these dangerous green loons from being allowed out in public without supervision. x.com/i/trending/203…

Interesting... But Mike, what's so mad about Miliband? What's he got that everyone else didn't have?

Interesting perspective:
