Andy Burnham’s government is rolling out a new “Centre for Information Defence”. But the outside actors most aggressively undermining what little remains of British democracy are nowhere in its sights. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/worried-ab...

Worried about Russian meddling in UK politics? Wait till you see what Israel is up to

I absolutely love this from Peter Fonagy in his foreword to the English prevalence review. Stop judging kids today by your memories, and recognise that, if you don’t like how they’re reacting to today’s world, we’re the ones that shaped it for them.

I want to be careful not to turn my own history into a lesson for other people's children. Life has become harder since I was a young man: more uncertain, more relentlessly observed and appraised, with less belonging and fewer opportunities to take time-out, to recuperate and recover. The cacophony of voices now available to a young person - most of them digital, many of them confident, few of them accountable - has made the ordinary developmental process of understanding oneself far harder than it was for me, and the consequences for how young people function are correspondingly greater. As a clinician who still sees young people, and as a proud father of two children, I am in awe of their courage. Young people today are contending with more powerful forces than I ever faced. They are not fragile. They are outnumbered.

Israel has no “right” to exist. That’s just a fact of international law. It has nothing to do with hatred of Israel or antisemitism, though the establishment media are determined to tell you otherwise. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/no-state-h...

No state has a ‘right’ to exist – least of all an apartheid, genocidal state like Israel

After the Greens passed a motion declaring ‘Zionism is racism’, every establishment journalist is suddenly playing dumb about the most elementary of issues in international law

There’s a reason why so few truly leftwing politicians are visible in public life. Because the media’s role is to weed them out, discredit them, place them beyond the pale. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/how-the-bb...

Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

'Pressure is building...' is mainstream media code for Establishment power manufacturing an opportunity to pile on and destroy true opposition. We've seen it all before... #WeveGotZacksBack www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Pressure is building on the party leader after byelection defeat, a damaging row over Zionism and polls that show him less popular than Nigel Farage

Reading the news, it would be easy to believe that the Green Party has adopted a policy to expel its Jewish members, prevent them from attending synagogue or at the very least scrutinise their activities outside the party. *None of that has happened* 🧵

David Timoney@fromarsetoelbow.bsky.social · 2w ago

None of the claims made here are true, but that's beside the point. What matters is the suggestion that certain people should not be subject to purity tests, while others should. For example, raise Palestine and you will be asked if you think Israel has the right to exist.

This is nuts, lads: one of these parties had an internal hate campaign that bent the rules to bully and hound out a huge number of Jewish people over their views on Israel/Palestine. It wasn’t the Green Party, was it?

Lewis Goodall C @lewis_goodall X.com The Greens have a Labour PM committed to electoral reform at precisely the moment they've essentially made it nearly impossible for that same Lab PM to go into coalition with them. lee harpin @ @lmharpin-7h Amendment 3 on safeguarding Jews has failed to pass 684 - 1026! Absolutely shameful !!!
David Timoney@fromarsetoelbow.bsky.social · 2w ago

I think it's important to remember that: a) Outside of a few eccentrics, the left didn't claim there was no antisemitism in Labour. The argument was that its incidence was far less than in other parties and in society in general, AND that the charge was politically-motivated.

Paul Bernal@paulbernal.bsky.social · 2w ago

I know people still think the whole weaponisation of antisemitism against Corbyn was a fraud. There were certainly some very bad people who used it, *but* it was there to be used. It existed. It still does. I still get a lot of replies that use antisemitic tropes to attack Israel.
