My comments at the Oxford Union debate.

This is one of the most hostile rooms I’ve ever walked into.

It wasn’t a debate; it was a referendum on whether my own family deserved to live.

I don’t require their permission. Not anymore.

"Jews are dogs, they should be burned."

South Africa's 🇿🇦 Jewish Board of Deputies has taken Truth and Solidarity Movement leader Mehmet Vefa Dag to the Equality Court over alleged posts, including "Jews have ruined SA."

This isn't criticism of Israel. It never was.

I just got a note from a Jewish mother in Leeds who took her kids to the Vue cinema at The Light for a birthday on Remembrance Sunday.

The staff member checking tickets was wearing a Palestinian badge, and she told him she didn't think staff should wear political badges that can make customers feel uncomfortable.

She says two managers were called, her family was refused entry, and one manager told her she wouldn't get a refund if she kept complaining.

@vuecinemas, can you confirm your version? Are your staff allowed to wear political badges on shift, and what happens to a customer who comes in with her children and says a badge makes her feel intimidated?
