@christopherhope @GBNEWS The fireworks display sounded like Shock and Awe, really over the top, but in character I suppose

@suleiman_osman1 @PrimroseWatch @theroyalparks @MPSPrimHill @Keir_Starmer @LaurenKeiles @MetCC Thanks @suleiman_osman1 I have met several local neighbours and friends today who were all woken up or disturbed by the ASB last night. It had reduced, so we pray it's not returning. Fireworks need to be difficult to buy, especially online and especially the "nasty" category.

@AaronBastani Not impossible in England, but rare and made worse by local authorities that don't enforce their own policies.

@Katie_Lam_MP Spot on @Katie_Lam_MP The reporting processes are cumbersome and some questions confusing. Plenty of people try to report crime and then give up. Reported crime is not equal to actual. Calling 101 takes forever, so people overuse 999.

@2EXPvZWQ7LLPX4P Well shame on her, if indeed she is woman, let's hope she knows which sex she is.

This is the UN.
Look at the face of the UN special rapporteur who is meant to stand up for women but has refused, again and again, to speak up for Israeli women.
Look at her face when a former hostage challenges her.

On the spiteful nature of Labour’s education policy, let’s revisit the single decision Bridget Philipson made that has been most revealing, as well as frustrating.

Eton and Star Academies wanted to open a great new free school in Middlesbrough to help more talented young people access the best universities - a noble endeavour backed by funding from Eton as well as a commitment to share their passion and expertise.

The last Conservative government said yes in 2023 under @GillianKeegan, in a victory for local children and parents and for a great campaign led by independent Mayor Andy Preston @centre_right_ and Conservative Councillor @MiekaSmiles.

But astonishingly, Labour locally campaigned against it. Andy McDonald MP raged against Eton as a "hallmark of stifling elitism”.

What did Bridget Philipson do when she became Education Secretary? She killed the project. Prejudice trumped social mobility.

The amazing @lalshareef explains how Israel removed Jews from Gaza in 2005 to get peace, leaving behind greenhouses worth millions of dollars.

The Palestinians looted the greenhouses, and Gaza was turned into a terror fortress.

This must go viral.

A stunning reminder of why we cannot give up on our rivers yesterday, as I stumbled across an adult eel on the Roding for the first time, lounging in the shallows in the shade of a council tower block & within earshot of the North Circular.

This now rare & magical sight used to be common, until eel populations crashed on the Roding in the 1980’s & have not recovered. Seeking to understand & reverse this population crash should surely be a key role for the governments environmental regulator, but as usual they have done nothing to improve water quality or remove barriers to eel migration. Worse, they are actively blocking my efforts to help the eel population recover.

Ordinarily, baby eels (elvers) for restocking are expensive to buy. However, I managed to secure a kind donation of elvers from fishermen on the River Severn (where the elvers often get stuck behind barriers on the river). I applied for my @EnvAgency restocking permit like a good boy & all they had to do to help recover eel populations on the Roding was to say yes. Perhaps predictably, my application was rejected, because there was no positive evidence that reintroducing eels to the Roding would be a good thing. Perhaps most annoyingly, my application to restock eels on the Roding was rejected because reintroducing them would interfere with the EA’s monitoring of their continued decline.

I asked what would happen if I went ahead & released the elvers anyway & was told that the EA would fine me up to £50,000. Yet another example of the malevolent uselessness of the EA: obsessed with procedure, but will do absolutely sod all to actually reverse the decline in our rivers.

@AdamShawBiz Close the windows especially on the sunny side. The air in your house is cooler than outside. Keep it in. Open windows later only when temp falls.

@ZackPolanski Sensible people can see that stuff is happening. We now need realistic policies from sensible people to cope with a global phenomenon. Don't deceive by suggesting it will reverse. Realism should beat your anxiety-fuelled hyperbole.

1. 🚨BREAKING: County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust has paid £187,000 in damages, apologised, and committed to separate changing facilities for male and female staff following the Darlington nurses’ legal case.

In January, the Employment Tribunal had found the nurses suffered harassment and indirect sex discrimination over workplace changing-room arrangement.

The case, brought by seven nurses at Darlington Memorial Hospital, Bethany Hutchison, Lisa Lockey, Karen Danson, Tracy Hooper, Annice Grundy, Carly Hoy and Jane Peveller, was supported by the Christian Legal Centre, which has provided the nurses with legal, media and pastoral support from the beginning of their ordeal.

The case has become one of the most significant legal challenges in recent years concerning the freedom of female staff to access single-sex spaces in the workplace, with the nurses being compared to the Ford Dagenham workers and being dubbed ‘The Angels of the North.’

In January, Employment Judge Seamus Sweeney, ruled that the policy, which had been in place at the Trust for years allowing men who identify as women to access the female staff changing room, had amounted to unlawful discrimination.

Following extensive and at times deeply protracted negotiations, the Trust has now paid out £187,000 in damages to the nurses, which does not include legal costs, which are still to be decided at a further hearing.

This figure also does not include the Trust’s own legal costs of £603,000, and counting, spent on defending its position of allowing men into female changing rooms.

BREAKING: The Islamic regime of Iran is gradually launching a new crackdown on Iranian women. Morality police vans have returned to the streets of Qom and Mashhad to kidnap and arrest women who do not cover their hair in public.

This is yet another fact proving that the Islamic regime cannot be reformed. It remains a barbaric totalitarian regime that systematically oppresses women, strips them of their most basic freedoms, and rules through intimidation, coercion, and fear.

⚽️ Amazing own goal by Medhi Hasan. The ICC prosecutor said there is simply not the evidence Israel committed genocide.

When pushed, Karim Khan says it would be “reckless” for a prosecutor to make the claim because of “clamour.”
