Here is the US cover for our forthcoming #Kubrick book. What do you think? – at Bangor, Wales

One thing this @nytimes piece misses is that both are Jewish.

This attractive silk waistcoat from the 1860s was owned by a gentleman from Llandegfan, Anglesey. It is marked with the shop’s name where it was bought: John Aronson, Bangor, a Jewish immigrant from Prussia.

We light this candle in memory of Emma Gaertner of Nuernberg who was murdered in Minsk, aged 70, and all of the victims of the Holocaust.

I accept that. Although I do think the press did tap into it with the Ed Miliband bacon sandwich episode: forward.com/culture/443545/w…

Yes I get that. I don't believe that's what's going on with that Michael Howard poster. Because I think AC would've had exactly the same idea had, say, Liam Fox been Tory leader at the time. But Anne W would not have said, imo, that "something of the night" thing about LF.

@Baddiel Just listening to your podcast with @RoryStewartUK and @campbellclaret. Look up the Judensau which admittedly is more historic than contemporary.

I had a lot of thoughts on History of the World Part II, but one in particular felt like it needed to be expressed so thank you to @ndabrams and @ThinkJew for the chance to share it! A few words on @nickkroll, @ikebarinholtz, and Jewish masculinity!

Are you Jewish, 20-30 and a UK citizen? Has your sense of Jewish identity been re-shaped by solidarity with the Palestinian people? If so, I'd love to hear from you for my PhD research. DM me to find out more and take part in my online survey. Anonymity guaranteed. RTs welcome.

Hi @brigitfilm, I will stick my neck out and respond to your @ThinkJew query.
1. I have seen questionable performances given by Jews.
2. Is it ok for a secular Jew to mimic a Haredi by dressing up?
3. Comparisons between Jews and other groups who cannot pass simply don't work.

4. The key point is whether 'Jewish actors were approached to play such roles as Bernie Madoff and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but rejected those offers, freeing them up for Robert De Niro and Felicity Jones.'

I wrote this for the @guardian
'Why I quit' series. The photo was taken on the day in 1993 when I was diagnosed with Epstein-Barr, from which I never fully recovered. It makes me sad for the younger me and proud for the life I have built nonetheless.
