I have been paralysed & a wheelchair user for 17 years. Since then, I have flown hundreds of times. I have never had worse service than this morning at Heathrow T4 Arrivals.
From April.
I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.
The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.
Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.
The Electoral Sabotage Party?
You have to win a general election before you can do anything else. Starmer gets this AND achieved it.
Dividing the left - Corbyn brings the same electoral savvy which led to a disaster for Labour under his"leadership".
Self-indulgent
Heard the one about how UK services exports were booming after Brexit??
Another myth, sadly...

In 2014, half of Greece's electricity was generated by coal.
A decade later, that share has fallen to just 6%.

Also, striking how little praise there is on here for Darren England. Plenty of feedback for weak decisions but silence when refs do well ...
Strong by Darren England to stick with on-field decision. How can Mykolenko avoid the ball at that distance? Arms in natural position for balance. Nice one, ref! #fuleve

Maybe we should give him the benefit of the doubt sometimes!
Lots of funny comments here! 🤣
The comments didn't age so well, did they?!
I'm interested in buying the book. Enjoying the pod!
Like it! Yes, we got plenty of Amy Grant and I enjoyed it. 👍
I'm going to write a Christian dieting book: "He must increase, I must decrease."
I have more than 410k followers on X and fewer than 63k on BlueSky.
Yet the same tweet about Russian money supporting the Far Right in Britain has been shared fewer than 100 times on X and more than 1,300 on BlueSky.
That's how much of a propaganda tool X has become.
One of the biggest corporate donors to the populist Reform U.K. party has sold almost $2 million worth of transmitters, cockpit equipment, antennas and other sensitive technology to a major supplier of Moscow’s blacklisted state weapons agency, documents show. From 2023 to 2024, the company, part of the British aerospace manufacturer H.R. Smith Group, shipped the equipment to an Indian firm that is the biggest trading partner of the Russian arms agency, Rosoboronexport. H.R. Smith Group donated 100,000 pounds (just under $130,000) to Reform U.K. last year, two days after Nigel Farage was announced as the party’s leader. The company is run by Richard Smith, a businessman who owns 55 Tufton Street, a Westminster townhouse that is home to some of Britain’s most influential right-wing lobbying and research groups.
Blimey. One of Nigel Farage's biggest donors, and the owner of 55 Tufton Street, is helping the Russian military effort www.nytimes.com/2025/03/28/w...
I’ve seen a lot of revolutions over the decades, and many have started off with overconfident actions like Erdoğan’s arrest of his main opponent, the Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu. Erdoğan is in trouble, and he’ll have to be really careful now.
Nice!
