Until we have politicians in government who genuinely act as public servants rather than servants to their corporate donors, nothing fundamental will change.

[St Mellons Clean Up @StMellonsClean]

UK Muslim Murder House: 41 Dogs Starved, Tortured, Murdered

They tried to chew their own legs off they were so hungry.

How can any human do this?

UPDATE: We are now finding out there was a cover-up (read until end).

This is the nightmare that unfolded at the fake “Save A Paw UK” rescue in Crays Hill, Essex.

In February police smashed their way in and found pure hell: 41 dogs rotting in a mass grave crawling with maggots and rats, 21 more live dogs and one cat crammed into filthy pens with zero food or water.

The smell of death hit vets from 40 metres away.

Starved animals had gnawed on wood, on their own legs, anything to survive.

Most were already dead.

26-year-old Muslim Oaveed Rahman ran the scam. He lured desperate British families on Gumtree and social media, pocketed up to £500 per dog with promises of training and loving new homes, then vanished.

He admitted 11 fraud charges, animal cruelty, and illegally owning a banned XL Bully.

On 20 February 2026 the court gave him just five years in prison and a lifetime ban on ever owning animals again. You may have seen the original horror.

Now fresh details make it even worse.

UPDATE: Public fury forced an MP to refer the “unduly lenient” sentence to the Attorney General. On 25 February they reviewed it and refused to toughen it - keeping the soft five-year term exactly as it was, even while calling the crimes “repellent.”

At the same time Basildon Council quietly released its own damning report: they had received repeated complaints about Rahman’s property since early 2023 - noise, distressed dogs, suspicious activity - yet did almost nothing.

No proper inspections, no shutdown, just endless excuses that “no licensing was required.”

Officials knew the horror was coming and looked the other way.

Why do you think they covered it up?

This preventable massacre happened while Rahman, shaped by Islamic teachings that brand dogs najis (unclean) and ritually impure, turned trusting owners’ pets into a death camp.

The pathetic sentence, the council’s years of inaction, and the obvious cultural clash feel like a slap in the face to every victim and every dog lover in Britain.

When will authorities stop turning a blind eye and finally confront how these imported attitudes treat our loyal companions like vermin?

He deserves the death penalty.

Jill Dando was going to speak out about a huge trafficking ring within the BBC and the Establishment. She knew how filthy and evil the corporation was, she knew the BBC covered up for the likes of Jimmy Saville, Rolf Harris and Stuart Hall, and MI5 took her out as they didn't want to be exposed. Jill had the goods on many of them, so they had to move in quick and murderer her.

The BBC should be taken down and arrests should be made. The BBC is a cesspool of swamp creatures who are involved in murdering, rape, torture of innocent children. Jill Dando wanted to save the children, like many others. But if you spoke out against the establishment and try to expose them, you get disposed of.

Never forget Jill Dando.

[St Mellons Clean Up @StMellonsClean]

[Convention on Migratory Species (CMS) @BonnConvention]

Panama has proposed including three thresher shark species (Pelagic thresher, the Bigeye thresher, and the Common thresher) on CMS Appendix I. 🦈

The pelagic thresher shark (𝘈𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘢𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘴) is globally classified as Endangered, with a decreasing population trend. It moves between Central America and the Gulf of California. It is the smallest of the thresher sharks and females produce only two very large pups.

Unsustainable target and bycatch fisheries, especially longlines and gillnets, are its principal threat, alongside pressure from the shark fin trade.

Happy World Wildlife Day! This Water Rail is found at Hendre Lake. A great shot by our member Michael Field, capturing the water rails patterns. A beautiful bird that is found in reed beds in freshwater wetlands, making Hendre lakes and its reens the perfect habitat for them.

[Solyricon @Solyricon]

A woman I know found out her coworkers had a group chat without her.
Not unusual. Happens all the time.
What made it different was that she was the one training most of them.
Helping with resumes. Covering shifts. Fixing mistakes quietly so no one got written up.
She found out by accident when someone sent a screenshot to the wrong thread.
Her name was in it.
Not in a dramatic way.
Just jokes. Eye rolls. “She tries too hard.” “Why does she act like the boss?”
The next day she showed up the same. Smiled. Helped. Answered questions.
But she stopped volunteering.
Stopped staying late.
Stopped reminding people about deadlines.
Three months later the department was a mess.
Management asked her why she wasn’t “stepping up” like before.
She said, calmly, “I realized I was the only one who thought we were a team.”
That’s it.
No confrontation. No meltdown.
Just withdrawal.
And the wild part?
People only notice your value when you stop giving it for free.

[St Mellons Clean Up @StMellonsClean]

These 3 women have VERY important jobs within His Majesty’s Government.
Their titles:-
Home Secretary
Minister for Safeguarding & Violence against Women and Girls.
Minister for Victims & Violence against Women and Girls.
ALL 3 Voted AGAINST a Rape Gang Inquiry!!!!!
Not one of them have responded to letters I have written on behalf of The Pink Ladies movement. Not one of them have reached out to Rhiannon’s, Katies, Lily’s or Stephanies families and not one have publicly discussed or acknowledged the fact that the UK is now the Official Rape Capital of Europe!!! With some charities saying they are “Overwhelmed” by victims. Shabana Mahmood said in May 2025 there would be a “moment of reckoning” when asked about the thousands of British girls raped by mainly Pakistani rape gangs up and down this country… NOTHING! This is so so wrong.. and I’m sure that everyone reading this post will be as disgusted, furious outraged and frankly as devastated as I am by what this country has become!Absolute and total disgrace.
