Madness. Putting solar panels over car parks, as is required in France, makes every kind of sense. It generates clean power, provides shade to the cars, and protects countryside from solar farms. But the Government has inexplicably rejected it.

Two Muslim men pulled an elderly couple and their grandson from a burning house in Leeds last Friday.

You probably didn’t hear about it.

Mohsin Qayyum. 22.
Mohammed Yusuf Iqbal. 20.

Both from Bradford.

They drove past the garden. They saw the fire. They ran straight in.

Sheila Robinson, the grandmother who was trapped inside, posted on social media:

"My family and I will be forever grateful to these young men."

Her granddaughter Kayla wrote:

"Drove past the garden, seen it, and ran straight in and made sure everyone was okay without a second thought."

Everyone got out. The house can be replaced. The family is alive.

Every outlet that covered it called them heroes.

They deserved every word.

But not one headline told you they were Muslim men.

We have seen this before.

Two weeks ago, a teacher was stabbed in the neck protecting his pupils from a knife in his Manchester classroom.

Maysum Abdullah. 27. Science teacher.

LBC named him a hero. So did the Independent, the Manchester Evening News, the Mirror, the Sun.

He ran towards the blade.

A hero in every paper. A Muslim man in none of them.

This is the pattern.

When a Muslim name appears in a crime, the faith leads the headline.

When a Muslim name appears in a rescue, it vanishes from the page.

Now look at who that erasure clears the path for.

Bradford, the same district these men come from, is now led by Reform as its largest party.

One of their candidates, Daniel Devaney, topped the poll in his ward after writing on Facebook that Muslims were "pure scum" and that he wanted to "blast [them] off the face of the earth."

He was not deselected. He was not suspended. He was elected.

They are loud about our religion when they want to call it a threat.

They are silent when that same religion sends two young men running into a fire.

The book they want to criticise is the same book that commands us to save a life.

"Whoever saves one life, it is as if he had saved all of mankind."
— Qur'an 5:32

Qayyum and Iqbal lived that verse on a Friday in Leeds.

Abdullah lived it in a Manchester classroom.

And the headlines recorded the act, but erased the faith that drove it.

When we are the suspect, our religion is the whole story.

When we are the rescuer, it is not worth a line.

Their names are Maysum Abdullah, Mohsin Qayyum, and Mohammed Yusuf Iqbal.

Muslim men.

Say both.

Starmer's legacy:

Between Yvette Cooper imposing the Labour Govt's proscription & the end of April 2026, British police have arrested at least 3,070 peaceful individuals as terrorists - just for holding up placards.

Please RT this until this proscription is lifted.

Thank you.

The UN has found that Israel deliberately targeted maternity wards and neonatal units as a direct strategy.

Please RT this until the UK Govt stops supporting the GENOCIDAL state of Israel & doing it in our name.

Thank you.

Don't let anyone fool you! Plans to farm octopus must be stopped.

Nueva Pescanova applied to the Las Palmas Port Authority to build the world's first commercial octopus farm. Tell the port authority to close the application: https://t.co/KrAfWJGpiv

"Very poor white people” are being convinced that “very poor, hard-working brown or Black people” are responsible for the “problems caused by billionaire white men”, Allison Morris, Crime Correspondent at the Belfast Telegraph, says in the wake of the riots that spread through the capital of Northern Ireland overnight.

Typical stuff from the Daily Mail - what they miss is this - Red meat consumption in Britain has fallen 37% in the last ten years (from 37g to 24g per day). On that basis red meat consumption will hit the target well before 2040, through our own choice to eat more healthily. Just more right wing fuss over nothing - and by the way this is advice from the Climate Change Committee - pinning it on Ed Miliband is a bit of a stretch. Signing up to these new targets is good on so many levels - not least if you read the new CBI report that shows half a Trillion £s of investment coming to Britain BECAUSE of our Net Zero commitments. And the £100 Billion added to our economy annually already, and the 1 million jobs. And, and, and. Net Zero is just another way to describe the Green Economy. It’s here, it works - we are benefiting already.

BREAKING: We filed for a temporary restraining order to block the transfer of $1.8B from the Treasury Dept to Trump's slush fund.

Trump can't unilaterally and secretly disburse these taxpayer funds. The court must stop this grift before it's too late. https://t.co/XcA9qDqWVJ
