Schools are not a place for "making protests and statements about geopolitical events", says the education secretary. Lucy Powell has announced strengthened guidance on political impartiality after a review revealed the scale of antisemitism in English schools.

They're *still* erasing the third victim.

Suleiman has also pled not guilty to a third count of attempted murder of Ishmail Hussein, hours before the Golders Green incident. Reuters' headline incorrectly implies there were only two victims. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… reuters.com/world/man-plea… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Anyone wondering what the issue might be and who caused it...yeah there you go. Contract tampering to cause a fight to fall apart.
So AJ and Tyson Fury’s contracts apparently stated that Dana White couldn’t be involved. AJ signed it, and now Tyson is saying HE took that clause out because “fuck ’em” 😵‍💫 Which by doing so, it has created more annoyance & confusion, yet somehow AJ is the one being blamed? 🙂

Sacha Baron Cohen invented a completely false Kazakhstan of dog-shooting festivals, horse-urine wine, buying wives with insecticide, and a hometown full of rapists and prostitutes and MORE. The “Kazakh village” scenes were filmed in a real Romanian village after the residents were told it was a documentary about POVERTY. They were paid a few dollars a day. When they saw the finished film they sued for $30 million over the deception and humiliation. Kazakhstan’s government shut down his website, blocked distribution, and spent millions on campaigns just to fight an image that had nothing to do with reality. Sony is now financing his return.

These pervert glasses are an outrage and should be banned. No-one needs them.
17-year-old Beth Knight was at a London train station when she was approached by a man. She didn't know at the time, but she was being secretly filmed on his Meta glasses. She tells Channel 4 News she was "terrified" and didn't know how the interaction would end. Billed as the latest high-tech must have, there's growing backlash against Meta's smart glasses amid evidence some users are secretly filming women without their knowledge or consent. Meta insists they designed their AI glasses with privacy and safety features built in from the start - including an LED light which comes on whenever someone is filming.

i cannot believe the gratitude palestinians show for the smallest amount of solidarity. we all have failed them.
Palestinians have painted a mural of Ariana, who was sacked from Burger King for saying "Free Palestine," on a wall in Gaza.

They claim it all started on Oct 7th 2023. This is Gaza in 1993.

Reminder that FIFA deemed Haiti’s depiction of a battle that literally freed them from slavery as too political, but Argentina can get away with this.
🚨🇫🇰 PICTURED: Argentina’s players hold up a sign saying “Las Malvinas” are Argentine This is factually inaccurate, as the Malvinas, officially named the Falkland Islands, are British

Tomorrow, Europe pays its tribute to the memory of over 8,300 Bosniak men and boys who were killed in the Srebrenica genocide 31 years ago. Our thoughts are with the families of the victims of the genocide. Read the joint statement by HR/VP @kajakallas and Commissioner @MartaKosEU here: link.europa.eu/3pQgjM

2022 🇷🇺: “Somebody in Russia [should] take [Putin] out.” 2023 🇷🇺:“Russians are dying… best money we’ve ever spent.” 2023 🇵🇸: “Gaza should be flattened.” 2024 🇵🇸: “This is Hiroshima & Nagasaki on steroids.” “If I were Israel, I’d do the same.” “Do whatever you have to do.” “Pull the Palestinian school system up by its roots and destroy it.” 2025 🇵🇸: “We’re killing all the right people.” 2026 🇮🇷: “We will obliterate them” over Strait of Hormuz. I’m shocked that so many people are mourning his death. Mourning a monster doesn’t humanize the monster. It dehumanizes the mourner.

Iran couldn’t get visas. They didn’t intervene. A Somalian referee couldn’t get a visa. They didn’t intervene. Fans of Muslim countries couldn’t get a visa. They didn’t intervene. Ronaldo got a red card. Intervened. USA player got a red card. Intervened. F*** FIFA. Corrupt.

Bad transport links, highly inflated ticket prices, triple the price for the train to and from the games, people getting shot, fans being denied visas to enter the country, Iran NT players being interrogated for 7 HOURS But Qatar 2022 faced more outrage when people heard there was no alcohol. Okay man
