Note Bibi doesn't weigh in on whether or not this was a Nazi salute. Why? Because to Netanyahu, who spent years legitimising the far right in Europe and beyond, that's simply the wrong question. "Nazi shmazi, who cares? He's a friend of Israel!"

for a piece, I'm looking to speak to Muslim Covid-19 frontline workers (who are still doing a similar job now) -- taxi or delivery drivers, transport, healthcare, teachers, supermarkets. Especially keen to speak to people outside of London. DM me if this is you! #journorequest

Five years after the pandemic, Muslim key workers say they feel abandoned. Despite keeping the country running while risking their own health in Covid lockdowns, in the years since many have struggled during the cost of living crisis. ✍🏽thediyora.bluesky.social hyphenonline.com/2025/03/18/cov…

Really fascinating that the political insurgents also basically have no idea what they want, other than a cheaper imitation of American cruelty. And much like the current Labour party, a lot of this would be evident if journalists ever asked them a couple of follow up questions

A note to book PRs: I'm now writing a books column for Hyphen, so please email me about anything you're really excited about — especially if it's by Muslim authors. My email is in my bio. #journorequest #journorequests

The really appalling and dangerous thing about this piece (and I think it represents the views of senior Labour people) is less the stuff about Corbyn, more the strongly implied argument, "the Jewish community" made Labour support a genocide. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Burning down the houses of random Filipino families is not 'venting your feelings' It's racism. Astonishing headline from Sky News.

“These revised proposals are nowhere near good enough and frankly are just not well thought through." Labour MP for Nottingham East Nadia Whittome tells #R4Today she still does not support the government's amended welfare reforms.

A plea to the media: please platform disabled people's organisations like Disability Rights UK. The most important story is not the drama in Westminster but about disabled people's futures. Disabled people's representatives must be heard - they're saying the concessions aren't enough.
