That’s not for me to decide, btw, if anyone thinks it is me, then I really couldn’t care less!

You’re not saying S&D’s thickness is trumped by someone who openly admitted there was absolutely nothing their chosen political party could do, absolutely NOTHING, to stop them voting for them?

Mind boggling thickness.

Touché.

And that right there is the post of the year to prove that the neanderthal who keeps insisting he isn't racist actually is! You'll post next to prove that you are a misogynist that the Mayors of the East Midlands, North East and West Yorkshire are women! It must boil your urine that the Police Commissioner for Derbyshire is an immigrant woman from Zimbabwe!

Racist? How so?

I guess that’s hospital waiting lists and pothole repairs for that area put on a back burner then?
But hey, that’s the rich rainbow of diversity that we see when we walk down every high street in the country, although I doubt many Jewish folk will be walking down his high street anytime soon!

Before it gets dismissed as “Mailesque media” I’d welcome comments.

IMO local council should affect and concentrate on local politics and not on matters of international affairs…regardless of party, ethnicity or religion.

There's a group of Celtic fans singing, chanting and expressing their support.

A Rangers fan approaches them and unfurls his club's banner.

The Rangers fan is taunted, jostled and has the flag torn away.

The Rangers fan then runs to the media pleading victimhood, complaining about intimidation and his freedom of expression being denied. Despite admitting he picked up his emblem and walked away unhindered.

Change the words 'Celtic fans' to 'pro Palestinian protestors' and 'Rangers fan' to 'Jewish man' and that's exactly the scenario narrated on LBC this morning.

So who was provoking who....?

A morning for genuine Qs. What are your views (if it’s possible to have such a wide view) on the Jews as a race? I’m reading more and more about their history, right back to biblical times and am fascinated and confused in equal measure.

I appreciate that’s a wide ranging question and it’s not meant to be provocative or controversial.

Agree broadly but if a group of similarly-minded people choose to focus their attentions towards a non-local issue and a candidate campaigning about that non-local issue wins their vote, who are we to say that’s wrong?

That’s not a rhetorical question, I genuinely don’t know if it’s right or not. And I’m not speaking specifically with regards to the Greens councillor who shouted Allahu Ahkbar and started talking about Palestine during his victory speech either - he didn’t campaign on that basis, he’s a bell end.
