This is a degree of depravity & inhumanity I cannot recall witnessing before, not even under apartheid in South Africa

A month ago, Diogo Jota died an a car accident. The whole world mourned him. His photos were everywhere. Today Israel killed a soccer star while seeking aid. No one will hear about him. No one will see his photo. No one will mourn him except for his family and friends.

The Israelis are not listening to advice. They fail to understand that it is not “western governments with muslim populations” that have lost the argument. It is them.

Apple chief Tim Cook in a suit and tie with Donald Trump. Good PR? Bad PR? Is there something of Animal Farm’s new regime in this White House photo?

Mo Salah's X post about the IDF killing of Suleiman al-Obeid is a momentous moment in history of communications by sports stars. Not to be under-estimated.

Even the UK’s Daily Mail and The Times and The Sunday Times attack Israelis (over the murder of Al Jazeera journalists) the reputational collapse of Israel nears completion… the current administration is cratering not only Gaza but also hearts and minds all over the world. A total tragedy. Friends

One of the most extraordinary interviews I've ever seen. 👏 Krishnan Guru-Murthy.

Ricky Jones was charged, pleaded not guilty & was prosecuted before a jury of 12 randomly selected British strangers and found Not Guilty Others pleaded Guilty & were sentenced accordingly - they too could have elected jury trial There’s nothing 2 tier about it

He was acquitted by a jury. She pleaded guilty. You know these things and yet you put out this rank stupidity. I know your party is struggling for attention but this is worse than pathetic, though it is also that. It's dangerous.

For all the pageantry, President Trump leaves Alaska with little to show, while Russian leader Vladimir Putin got the recognition he has long sought on.wsj.com/4mPxgId

“Because of the way maps are normally drawn …”

The “new” right in the UK is full of “Christians” who seem to me to have very little real compassion and believe in a very male, very white, very wealthy, very privileged world. So many editors are “Christian” so many of the new media owners… so many commentators but whenever I

Of all the bizarre media moments during the Alaska summit, one particularly stands out: a Fox News expert told the audience he’d looked up the Russian word written on the body of Putin’s plane … and it means “Russia”.

Not only is Jacob right, but if Lucy Connolly *had* been improperly pressured into pleading guilty (and there doesn’t seem to be any evidence of this) she could have appealed. She wasn’t, so she didn’t.

Can we sue? How dare Reform march around in sky blue…. is this passing off? Manchester is the home of liberalism Nige… (cc David Pannick Blackstone Chambers)

Whenever I write about Gaza, I hear from smart, pained readers who agree with me on most issues but believe I'm way too tough on Israel. So in today's column, I take on their concerns and explain why I believe U.S. support for the Gaza war is a moral and practical catastrophe. It
