With all the pearl-clutching about ZP campaigning in Urdu, check out this 2015 banger ‘Neela hai aasma’ (the sky is blue), a Hindi song from Conservative Friends of India that "encourages 1.6 million British Indians to support David Cameron" youtube.com/watch?v=9Ep36luE…

To the Mayor of London (@MayorofLondon. @SadiqKhan),
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat plans to come to London in two weeks. This is unacceptable.
I have emailed you and MOPAC asking what City Hall intends to do. This directly affects various communities and matters to all Londoners.

Actual backstory 🧵
The elderly man whose home this was hadn't renovated - or even redecorated - for decades because he had been a long-term carer for his chronically ill wife (1/7)
Congratulations again! Such brilliant news!
Honoured to have been elected, alongside @andy_higson and Rachael Penny, to represent St Giles ward in Southwark!
To all those who voted for us, and those who didn’t, we will work to make our corner of the world even better 💚

There is a myth, very widely held in Labour, that we achieved an huge popular victory in 2024 under Starmer.
In fact we won 9.7 million votes, over 3 million fewer than in 2017 and half a million less than the 'disastrous' 2019 poll.
We won because the Tories imploded in 2024.
Still a few hours left to turn Camberwell* Green @SouthwarkGP (*or at least St Giles)

The anti-Semitic attacks over the last month are evil and inexcusable. My thoughts are with the victims of yesterday’s stabbing.
Equally, for political figures to use them as an excuse to crackdown on lawful protest against Netanyahu’s assault on Gaza - without concrete evidence of a direct link - is opportunistic and irresponsible.

Head of Iranian Jewish Community on Rubbles of Israeli-Hit Synagogue:
“Shameful” “All the Israeli regime’s claims about defending Jews are nothing more than a shameful lie,” said Rabbi Younes Hamami Lalehzar, calling Israel's attack on a synagogue in a residential area an “inhumane and terrorist” act.

This isn't going to work this time Ella and genuinely what right do you think you have as a Labour Party member lecturing the Green Party on anything?

One doesn't have to agree politically with any of the leaders they kill, but THEY (The Wild West and their Euro-mob) have no right whatsoever to kill them. Saddam hanged by Bush after a totally fake trial, Gaddafi brutally lynched on Obama/Clinton orders, Maduro kidnapped and illegally held by Trump, and now Khameini targeted and killed by Trump. Whatever else, it establishes a precedent for the anti-Wild West groups as well. It won't just end and since international law no longer exists be prepared for anything. Sad state of the world.

This is an illegal, unprovoked and brutal attack that shows once again that the USA and Israel are rogue states.
The UK must end our cosy relationship with the USA and our ongoing support for Israel.
BREAKING: The number of students killed in an Israeli attack on an elementary girls’ school in Minab, southern Iran, has now risen to 40.
