.@ClareHymer and I have spent the past 5 months interviewing Britain's political prisoners about life inside – and thinking about the kind of people that give up their freedom for a cause.
Ep 1 of Committed is out today, listen here or on the NM feed novaramedia.com/committed/
Mamdani didn't centre his campaign on his Muslim identity or pro-Palestine politics – he knew the press would do that for him.
Instead, he built a campaign around the one thing every New Yorker agrees on: the city is way too expensive.
A 34-year-old Muslim socialist was just elected mayor of New York City. How?
By rejecting identity politics and embracing class solidarity. Novara Media's @rivkahbrown explains.
Nice little mea culpa in @LukewSavage's Mamdani election reaction for @novaramedia
Big news!
The @BFI has added 10 Novara Media videos to its National Archive, reflecting the historic contribution it has made to UK media. @RivkahBrown reports. novaramedia.com/2025/10/23/n…

Has @BenKentish apologized to his listeners yet?
"Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters were banned from watching their game against Aston Villa after police intelligence concluded the biggest risk of violence came from extremist fans of the Israeli club."

‘What a disgrace for our country.’
@BenKentish reacts to news that Maccabi Tel Aviv have decided to not sell tickets for the Aston Villa game to fans.
And there you have it, folks.
@wesstreeting: were you concerned that the MPTS tribunal would clear Dr Aladwan of any wrongdoing, so preemptively had her arrested to try and prevent it from going ahead?
Something very fishy about this:
- Dr Aladwan's tribunal was due in 2 days.
- Wes Streeting has been trying to get anti-Zionist doctors banned before tribunals.
- The arresting officer quotes Streeting's criticisms of Dr Aladwan.
Did you set the police on her, @wesstreeting?
.@JakeWSimons, who left the Jewish Chronicle under a cloud after being found to have printed *nine* fake articles by the same fake journalist, appears not to have learned his lesson.
That book is going to be Naomi Woolfed sooner than you can say "fact-checker".
While Westminster grapples with whether to allow renters to have pets, last month Holyrood reintroduced rent controls.

Events in Israel today suggest that perhaps the West Mids police made the correct decision in banning Maccabi Tel Aviv fans after all.
I had really hoped that a compromise could have been found and away fans allowed in whilst the local community could also feel protected, but when Israeli police cancel a game involving Maccabi Tel Aviv for fear of “risk of life” then we have to take the threat seriously.
