@DalrympleWill I’m afraid this misinformation is music to many Indians deep seated Islamophobia! They lap it up with delight- those “what’s app uncle”types who proceed to lecture me a Londoner about how UK is being captured by the Muslim invasion coming in dinghies along the English coast!

This kind of misinformation is extremely damaging: I have had Delhi taxi drivers solemnly tell me London is now under Sharia Law
Dog-whistles & lies show Tories will stop at nothing to win. The Conservative campaign’s misleading ad is straight out of the Trump playbook; a dangerous & toxic tactic

“The most shocking thing about my time [in the West Bank] was how uncomplicated it actually is … There’s no way for me, as an African American, to come back and stand before you, to witness segregation and not say anything about it.” - Ta-Nehisi Coates

Watching the news since October 7 is like watching all of Jew-hating history condensed into a 12-day period: Holocaust-level pogrom, Holocaust denial, blood libel, assurance by "all the right people" that the Jews ought not defend themselves.

@bbcpress Never forget the kindness of this stranger- George sitting at the next table at the Dorchester Hotel when my film FLIGHT was up for award of Best TV Production at the first EMMA. Literally tongue tied when we won but George whispered “come on Hindi Picture” and panic passes!

It is with deep sadness that the BBC is announcing the death of its much-loved journalist and presenter George Alagiah.

Unravelling over the course of the 13 essays is a poignant and humorous take on what the new ‘normal’ is. ...a candidly guilt-free assertion of a choice to not be embroiled in the drudgeries of domesticity but to shape a domestic life the way one wants to.

Why are you wearing sari if you’re not Bangla!
Too late for a history lesson in sartorial garments of sub continent young man, I answer witheringly.
But everybody knows the sari is Bangla he continues forcefully. Tumhi bangla Amhi Hindi
Salaam Aley Kum he beam’s finally

Cultural conundrum as the sun emerges and out come chiffon saris with sneakers as I stride about seaside town. Young Asian man sidles up and enquires if I’m wearing a sari?
Yes is the response.
So you’re Bangla he continues to probe.
No I’m Indian from the west coast.

First British tourists of the summer season are here. Middle aged couple with a caravan that had a UKIP sticker in the window. Assumed I spoke English, asked for directions, I replied in French. The woman tutted, rolled her eyes and said,
"They don't even try to speak English"

Don’t want to watch GB News? Don’t worry, you can watch @MarinaPurkiss destroy Jacob Rees Mogg here 👇🏼 This is actually the closest I’ve ever come to pitying him. Ps: Wonder if he supports fracking due to his alleged financial interests in the fossil fuel industry via Odey?

@saliltripathi As Theresa May would say - “A citizen of Nowhere”….Welcome to Nowhereland!!!

Who was that on #Newsnight trying to defend the PM and ending up with the ringing endorsement ‘if you’re going to make mistakes, it’s best to make them early’?
I can’t shake the suspicion that she might continue to make mistakes, for as long as Tory MPs let her.
