Here’s Irish Flotilla member Margaret Connelly calling an Israeli warship a “concentration camp”. She’s the sister of the Irish President Catherine Connelly. What a despicable embarrassment she is.

Seven Gaza flotilla “activists” have returned to the UK after being deported from Israel.
They arrived at London Stansted via Turkey and reported witnessing people being “systematically tortured and abused over two days” on Israeli vessels and in prison.
By some strange miracle, all seven of them, who all happen to be British, did not experience any torture or abuse themselves. And as you can see in the image below, they do not look particularly traumatised by what they supposedly witnessed either...

I see the Irish media is getting into the Holocaust inversion business, repeating - albeit with scare quotes - the incendiary claim by the Irish president's clearly deranged, agitator sister that she was held in a "concentration camp" while briefly detained by Israel.
This language is deliberate
It's meant to mock the victims of the Shoah and to position those who want to "dismantle" the State of Israel as the new "survivors"
This isn't journalism
This is propaganda that Soviet commissars would be proud of

@AustinRSheridan @ScotTories So a difference of 2 equals a landslide! Like I said, revisit your definition.
English
@revjmkfc @ScotTories The SNP are 41 seats in front of their nearest opponent and have 58 MSPs. All unionist parties combined make 56 MSPs. That is what you call a landslide victory in a proportional representation Parliament.
English
John Swinney has reshuffled the same failed ministers to form his new cabinet.
The public will have no confidence that the SNP can deliver on the big issues with the same unsuccessful cast at the top.
English
@AustinRSheridan @ScotTories You need to revisit your understanding of "landslide."

@ScotTories The SNP just won a landslide election. The Tory definition of failure is very peculiar 🤣

@ScotTories The deckchairs have been rearranged and a few new ones added, but the ship is still sinking.

So many terrible words drift through my head when I think of Phillipson. A genuinely dreadful human being.
Kishwer Falkner@KishwerFalkner
Sad to read in @thetimes that Bridget Phillipson is blaming me for delay to EHRC Code. She certainly stoops low. She had Code for 3 months when she sent me this letter last November - no indication of any grandstanding then.

I posted about the allegations, including from the UN, that Israel has used dogs to assault, including sexually assault, Palestinians in detention.
This was the response from Netanyahu's ex-spokesman. They just don't care, even as they insist we constantly feel their pain.

Looking perfectly healthy, smiling, waving, and fist-pumping in the air as they arrived in Istanbul after being released by Israel.
Do these people look like they’ve been raped and abused, Mark?
Do you think, given the anti-Israel narratives the media and imbeciles like you push, that the IDF would purposely harm these people to give validation to all the ridiculous accusations thrown at them?
By comparison, did you see the state the Israeli hostages were in when they were released by Hamas? No, of course you didn’t care about that...

Tens of people’s bones broken,” organizers of the Global SumudFlotilla posted on the Telegram social media app. “While the world’s eye is trained on the suffering of our participants, we cannot emphasize enough that this is a mere glimpse of the brutality Israel imposes daily on Palestinian hostages.”

This gang lured and gang-raped at knifepoint a young girl while they filmed it laughing.
I will refer their sentences as unduly lenient - let’s see if this time the Government again says the rapists are too immature to receive stronger sentences.
Who are these disgraceful judges?
Judge Nicholas Rowland praised the boys for their conduct during the trial. “I think of you as very young and none of you have been in any big trouble before”

Belcher ⬇️ this morning on Today posed the question on how the EHRC will advance his rights in the face of what he calls ‘an unjust and unworkable bathroom ban’ which he says is down to appearance and stereotypes.
His identity may be unmoored from reality but it is not up to society to go along with it at the expense of others.

Here’s Amol Rajan’s resoundingly negative cue for Mary-Anne Stephenson of the EHRC. The BBC has instantly jumped to gender activist talking points and chosen guests accordingly: the law left enforcement unclear, it’s too hard to police, it will be expensive, the use of ‘female at birth’, something silly about the CQC, men are sad, men are bullied by women, everything is still confusing. There’s no welcome from women and gay people, nothing about how they will be safer, the rights of LGB associations, the relief felt this morning, how egregious the delay was: and they actually picked up a Neon guest of the worst kind. That’s twice in 24 hours the BBC has taken the lazy option and phoned Helen Belcher, whose disproportionate influence on the media is a good part of the reason they’re saying ‘female at birth’ and calling him a woman at all. None of his claims are fact-checked - of course.
