“Some problems are unavoidable. Some evils can be coped with, but not prevented. But that a nation should have saddled itself, without necessity and without countervailing benefit, with a wholly avoidable problem of immense dimensions is enough to make one weep...” Enoch Powell

Jewish/Israeli football fans are now not allowed into Britain for their own safety and a Birmingham MP is openly celebrating that.

No one should have to live a life in fear because of the faith they practice. That is not the Britain we stand for. In addition to existing support, up to £10 million in new funding will protect synagogues, Jewish faith schools and community centres across the UK.

Welcome to modern Britain. Away fans from Israel banned from Villa Park because the police cannot guarantee their safety in Birmingham. I am sad, angry and ashamed. #avfc

Europe is not safe for Jews again. Maccabi Tel Aviv fans will not be able to attend their side's Europa League match with Aston Villa amid safety concerns, it has been announced. news.sky.com/story/maccabi-…

GSpellchecker's tweet card. Police say the decision is based partly on what happened in Amsterdam last year, when Israeli fans attending a match against Ajax were targets of antisemitic attacks.

Five years today since teacher Samuel Paty was decapitated by an Islamic terrorist outside his school. Over four years since a Batley teacher has been in hiding. We have a duty to speak out. We must oppose the imposition of an 'Islamophobia' definition that will silence us.

it’s a 2 minute radio program, never repeated, broadcast 18 times a week. Bigger audience than Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon … combined. Millions listen, with no need for the information it gives. Just to listen. The BBC Shipping Forecast is 100 years old.
