If Jewish people were being pulled from their cars and beaten, beaten up in parks, and having acid thrown at them, there would be armed police on the streets, Keir Starmer would have called a Cobra meeting, and it would be 24/7 rolling coverage around the globe. And rightly so.

I have no interest in the lives of celebrities, but anyone looking objectively at evidence in the Johnny Depp & Amber Heard case can only conclude in Depp’s favour. Murdoch has long had the courts around his finger but there must be no safe space for abusers. #AmberHeardIsALiar

On the left, Reshawn Davis who has a baby with his British wife. He was convicted of robbery 10 years ago. Possibly deported last night. On the right, Rolf Harris, convicted of sexual assault on 4 underage girls amidst many more claims. Not deported. Spot the difference.

Dear racists, There's nothing stopping you having a Lee Rigby Day. In fact, the anniversary is May 22 and he trends at the top of social media each year, so you already essentially have. But it's not about him, is it? You simply wish to use his name to devalue a Black life.

With all the fury over Labour’s racist leafleting, this flew under many radars today. Keir Starmer visited a homophobic church and it's views are incredibly well known as it was in the press when Theresa May visited. He calls it a “wonderful example of a church.”
