Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Even in her "apology" and longer "clarification" it's incredibly hard to understand what her substantial point is. I bet you could give her 10 years to try to explain how the Sydney stabbing was in any serious way related to pro-Palestine marches and it still wouldn't make sense. Does she tweet the same thing any time there is a stabbing somewhere in the world? "Oh look, a stabbing in South Korea -- perfect time to tweet about intifada?"

I think she’s saying that those condemning the Sydney guy are hypocrites, for being the same people who also condemn Israel and in doing so making her feel unsafe in London as an Israel supporter. But it’s hard to say.

Also it’s not a very consistent position as she seems to be ignoring the reason why people take issue with Israel, I.e. opposing the genocidal violence Israel is committing against the people of Palestine.

Thanks, that at least makes some sense!

Well that’s because she can’t/won’t admit what the real issue is.

The woman that genuinely thought Jeremy Corbyn was racist.

What a twat.

She should sue herself for defamation.

Read through her whole "apology", she's got to be paranoid schizophrenic, nobody can be so far deep up inside their own arsehole, what the fuck is she on about? double digit IQ
