Israel’s gone back to the polls again after Netanyahu’s coalition broke down, and maybe, just maybe, the dragon may finally be slain.

It’s gunna be whoever can cobble together a coalition. There are lots of small religious nutter parties who get too many seats and wield far too much power disproportionate to their actual numbers

The Canadian election was held today. Trudeau has lost his majority, but should be able to form a minority government.

And Benny in Israel has failed for the second time to be able to form government so has handed it over to the other side.

So Trudeau becomes Canada's first black Prime Minister.

Haha, very good.

Interesting to see that he'll need either the Bloc Québécois or the NDP to pass legislation. I guess that's probably a pretty good result, all round.

You can bet the Alberta Separatist movement will flare up now. There was 50% support for secession in February.

Potential coalition partners refused to join with Netanyahu to form a new Israeli government - an episode that will be known to history as Benny and the Nyets.

It's getting closer and closer....

So Muslims have to choose which side they are going to back. Are they going to let the Tories back in by not voting or are they going to back Corbyn who has put his neck on the line for Palestine and Kashmir and issues like Islamophobia and Prevent? We have someone who is on our side like never before, so if you’re not going to vote for Corbyn then when are you going to vote?

So we are looking at Tory marginals where the Tory majority is much lower than the population of Muslims there. For example, in a place like Southampton Itchen, which I think is the most marginal seat in the country, there are thousands of Muslims there who could play a vital role. So we’re not just targeting places where Muslims are high in number like High Wycombe, Birmingham and Bradford; there are many other places where Muslims can play a vital role.

Hope it's keeping you up at night, Skids!
