Here is the Greens for Palestine slate. Note International Committee, the list for which is made up of people who captured the International Policy Working Group a few years ago. There were two candidates to lead IPWG: me and Kate Youssouf, whose supporters packed the meeting. The rest is history.

Palestinian ambassador to the UK Husam Zomlot spoke at the Labour conference today, with a stirring speech that referenced the South African struggle. Zomlot has a different message for other audiences. Here he claims that Palestinians are the original Christians...

Maybe they are no longer suspected terrorists. Daniel Thomas, on the other hand, is a hatemongering cunt. Of that there is no doubt.

The reality distortion field that Zack Polanski has spun around the English Green Party is something to behold.

If Green Party members vote for the Zionism is racism motion at their conference next month, they will be explicitly endorsing this ethnic cleansing antisemitism.

Macklemore in 2014... "I acknowledge how the costume could, within a context of stereotyping, be ascribed to a Jewish caricature. I am here to say that it was absolutely not my intention and unfortunately at the time I did not foresee the costume to be viewed in such regard." [snort]

It's called a Selichot service, marking the beginning of the Jewish High Holy Days season. But hey, make it sound like devil worshippers gathered for a black mass. My ownn Selichot service in Cambridge last night was wonderful. Blow your shofar!

Does Cofnas bear the stigmata?

Francis Sedgemore @hesgen.com · 24/08/2026
Universities may on occasion be described as toxic working environments staffed with folk who display low levels of emotional intelligence. The Cofnas affair illustrates this, albeit in a particularly extreme manner.
An extract from the University of Ghent's suspension letter to postdoc Nathan Cofnas, in which reference is made to Cofnas' description of the late Jason Arday as "mentally disabled".

I see that the Trump regime is defending Cofnas. The MAGA movement was described by the former Brain of Cambridge and Ghent as a low-IQ cult of personality. I do so love the silly season.

This article by Knesset member and rabbi Gilad Kariv offers a useful potted digest of current Israeli politics from the inside. "The next government will not lean on the most extreme political players in Israel. This is due to domestic developments as well as international pressure."

This charming chap on Newsnight this evening - a Reform UK councillor - was allegedly expelled from the Conservative Party after sending an unsolicited dick pic. Could Jaymey McIvor's new party not offer someone less morally compromised to face the media during the Clacton count?
