Good Law ProjectJason Arday is the youngest Black professor in Cambridge's history – and now rightwing newspapers are trying to smear him with untrue accusations of plagiarism. Not on our watch. Add your name in solidarity with Jason here: https://goodlaw.social/jg0w
Seeing Jews as an abstraction, not as actual people, is a key part of the antisemitic mindset.
Rachel CunliffeI have read Joshua Bonehill-Paine’s blogpost from April entitled “Inside the Mind of an Antisemite -and How I Escaped It”. It’s a fascinating account of being consumed by hateful, extremist ideology. You know what’s not in there? An apology. To Luciana Berger or the wider Jewish community
Eichmann - he got the job done in Budapest. Could he be the guy to oversee the kids playground and be on the village fete steering group?
Mark O’Neill 🐻Waiting for Badenoch's formal taxonomy of acceptable levels of fascism for each level of local government. County Council seems to equate to jailed former NAZI Party member. Parish councils should be ... interesting
This should be an ur-text for believers in the Keminaissance. And not in a good way.

Liddle is a reminder that there is a certain part of the politico media world where the worst thing you can ever be is boring. Not unkind.

American progressives: don't limit working class kids' horizons. British progressives: working class kids should learn plumbing as soon as possible.
Seth CotlarIn a college sociology class in the late 1980s I was assigned a Marxist analysis of education that argued that the US education system is designed primarily to produce efficient workers for the labor market. And now Trump’s Department of Education is just tweeting it out.

Emma YeomansCalls for the Office for Students to investigate Liverpool John Moores University, after it passed Jason Arday's PhD thesis despite plagiarism and the thesis being 38,000 words over word count. He says received just one supervision in 2.5 years. www.thetimes.com/uk/education...
Reads better in the original German: Die Juden sind unser Unglück.
James AustinA party that was actually anti-racist would be kicking this person out, not allowing them to run for the Governing Committee. There are many decent Greens who will be disgusted by this and I wish them all power fighting back against it. We know from experiance how hard that is.
It's quite the achievement to be the largest country in the world and yet to lack actual strategic depth. Hats off, wouldn't you say @darthputinkgb.bsky.social?
Stanimir DobrevThe head of the Kazakh Ministry of Trade said that the country has not received any new requests from Wildberries for the placement of warehouses.
A mark of basic decency and solidarity would have been for the Tories to write to Luciana Berger asking her if she felt this pitiful arsehole had truly recanted. Maybe they have. Doesn't sound like it though.

Aaron RuparTrump: "Japan has been very good to us with the exception of Pearl Harbor"
Not close enough to the Vladimir I was hoping it had exploded close to.
Euromaidan PressA drone flew 580 km, and a Russian mega-warehouse vanished into smoke Ukraine set fire to one of Wildberries' biggest hubs near Vladimir, the latest hit in a two-week campaign against Russia's Amazon clone. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/08/03/a...
The only way progressives can kid themselves that this isn't destructive of social mobility and social justice is to pretend in the "parity of esteem" fairy. And if you believe that roofing will ever have parity of esteem with, say, being a barrister then you're daft.
Sam FreedmanWhy do so many progressives want this? I just don't get it.
Farage obviously can't and won't do what Lowe is suggesting and reunite. But he's too weak to say that. Hence this "yeah but no" drivel from him. He's flailing. x.com/i/status/208...

Sunder Katwala (sundersays)This piece was published Sat afternoon. It could win awards for incoherence. Its big point is the EU Commission had no interest in stopping these people going into Europe By the time it was published it was clear none had done so www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...
