Dignity wins
WITH quiet dignity and their justifiable anger remarkably held in check, British Jews yesterday exposed the vicious intolerance of the pro-Palestinian mob.
For weeks London has been turned into a bear-pit by mindless left-wing crusaders and racist thugs openly supporting Hamas’s sick brand of terrorism.
But yesterday from the Strand to Parliament Square the only raised voices were those ringing out in defiant song.
Tens of thousands of non-Jews standing with their embattled Jewish friends in a show of support not witnessed since the Battle of Cable Street in 1936.
But what provocation they have endured.
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023
From the naked bias of the BBC — and correspondent Jeremy Bowen’s smug lack of regret for his dangerously inaccurate reporting on Israel’s retaliatory war in Gaza.
To Sky News and the BBC repeatedly giving equal moral weight to the release of child Israeli hostages and convicted Palestinian terrorists.
Capping it all, Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar suggesting nine-year-old Emily Hand had been “lost” — as though she had been playing hide and seek rather than snatched by a death cult.
Admirably, British Jews did not take the bait.
There were no racist placards, no dressing-up in mock IDF uniforms.

This march, at least, showed civilised protest will always win over bile and hate.
Migration mess
THE Tories appear all at sea on migration — both legal and illegal.
Home Secretary James Cleverly insists the Rwanda scheme isn’t vital to tackle the small boats.
Meanwhile, one of his junior ministers warns massive immigration could provoke the far Right and says voters want control of our borders.

They do. But who will provide it?
For all that the Tories have squandered the message of Take Back Control, Labour is no better.
Yesterday one of their shadow ministers pledged to get net migration down to 200,000 in five years.
How? On this point Labour remains vacuously vague.
There is a depressing lack of honesty in the immigration debate.
If politicians think letting in the population of Birmingham every year is a good idea they should say so.
And suffer the political consequences.
Heaven & Tel
WHAT a life Terry Venables had.
Footballer, manager, entrepreneur, thriller-writer and singer.
It seems unlikely that a working-class boy growing up in Dagenham in 2023 could achieve all that he did.
It was one Tel of a story.
