offsite link Losing to Win Thu Feb 13, 2025 14:00 | Dr James Allan
Sometimes politicians have to lose to win so the other side can show its true colours. Trump is the standout example, says Prof James Allan. Had he won in 2020, we would not have had the blitz of the last four weeks.

Joanna Gray says the Gen Zer she was mentoring had an epiphany: "It?s not us who suck; it?s you Gen Xers. No wonder you lot went along with all that trans BS, you'd all lost your bottle." Terrifyingly, he was right.

Focus Ireland Chief Executive Declan Jones is the external expert for Day 4 (Thur Nov 27th) of Merchants Quay Ireland’s week-long Dealing with Homelessness campaign. The 4th day of the campaign is highlighting issues facing families, children and young people. Each day of the campaign has highlighted different issues including the relationship between homelessness and drug and alcohol use. Mr. Jones said: “I support the many issues raised by this campaign. One of the problems we’ve found is that people with addiction problems are being forced into a position where they’re stuck sleeping rough on the streets because of the lack of suitable accommodation and services. This means they quickly become further marginalized and stuck in a vicious circle of substance abuse and homelessness.” ... read full story / add a comment

The EU has suppressed a report on European anti-semitism, deeming it to be too 'inflammatory'. The report blames the rising tide of anti-semitic incidents in Europe on muslim and pro-Palestinian activists. It also deals with the new phenomenon of left-wing anti-Jewish sentiment. Please see the link to the Guardian article. Note that criticism of Israel per se is not regarded as anti-semtic, but rather only abusive vilification is. ... read full story / add a comment
