.@POTUS: I am proud to have done more to improve care for America’s veterans than any president in modern history… We cut the VA claims backlog by nearly 70%; I signed the VA Home Loan Reform Act so that no veteran loses their home to foreclosure; we have secured housing for nearly 100,000 homeless veterans.
If this isn’t proof that the Government is failing at its most basic jobs of protecting the public.. I don’t know what is.
170 previous offences.. 80 against vulnerable people!
How many times has this man avoided prison? How many times has he been let out early? Who vulnerable loved one is next?
Seriously, how many chances does someone get before we start putting the safety of innocent people first?
I have introduced a bill to introduce compulsory labelling of halal and kosher meat.
Consumers have a right to know what they are eating. Yet every day people are consuming halal and kosher meat without knowing it - that’s meat where the animal has its throat slit and often is not stunned before slaughter.
At its heart, this is a straightforward proposal built on consumer choice, animal welfare and transparency. It is not about banning halal or kosher meat but about the compulsory labelling of it, which is currently only voluntary, so as to ensure consumers know what they are buying.
What began as a limited religious exemption has become an increasingly significant part of meat production.
🚨In case you were wondering: the Taliban leaders send their daughters to fancy schools in Qatar and Pakistan.
“Just for the record do your two daughters go to school?
Head of Taliban Office in Qatar - Of course they do.
This sums it all up. For their own daughters nothing is forbidden while for poor girls living in Afghanistan everything is forbidden.💔

I don't want to shame any particular woman here, but publicly announcing that the #RussellBrand conviction must be wrong because you went home with him and he didn't rape you makes about as much sense as saying 'well, I left 25 Cromwell Street alive, so Fred West's innocent.'
Drones earlier, now 7 coordinated bomb threats against aircraft across Europe: someone has learned how to cause disruption without doing anything. Given the range of nations & law enforcement communities involved, fingers pointed at Russia/Belarus https://t.co/eicK3ZJABh
I'm absolutely fuming. I've spent the last two hours waiting for the police. I can't even leave because people keep following us, and we've continued to face harassment and assaults from Antifa members and other individuals in Cambridge.
I've contacted the police around five times, yet nothing has been done.
I will be returning to Cambridge. Don't you worry. And next time, I'll be bringing as many people as possible.
This gave me chills. A Muslim woman in a burqa attempted to set a plane on fire and bomb it, but passengers noticed what she was doing and managed to stop her before she could succeed.
Always stay alert around them.
