The PM is busy telling everyone he did a great job. If he had, the country wouldn’t be on its knees, the Labour Party wouldn’t be polling at 17% and he wouldn’t have been fired.
@Keir_Starmer you lied throughout your term as PM and you are lying on your way out.
You were and are useless.
My only non negotiable is that I start my day feeding the 80 street dogs in Thailand.
I've so many bigger things to do for the charity and scaling up but this is the part I'll never give up.
It's one hour of the day but it keeps my heart full and depression at bay!
🚨 URGENT HEAT WARNING🚨
The forecast is now showing temperatures of up to 37°C, here at Foster Sanctuary we are deeply concerned.
We currently have 90 dogs in our care. Some are elderly, some have thick double or triple coats, and some are recovering from illness too
Keeping every single one of them safe during this extreme heat is a huge operation.
Our team will be starting work from 5–6am each morning and working right through until the evening to make sure every dog stays as cool, hydrated and comfortable as possible.
It's like organising a military operation, with cooling routines, fresh water, shaded areas, cooling mats, ice toys, frozen treats, hydration drinks and constant monitoring throughout the day.
We're also making sure our amazing staff are looked after, because these conditions are challenging for everyone.
Our thoughts are also with the dogs living on our streets alongside their homeless owners. As always, we will be on standby to help , but we know the coming days are going to be incredibly difficult.
Even in the temperatures we've experienced today, we've already seen dogs struggling. The next few days could become life-threatening for many.
🐾 Please help us spread this message: • Walk your dog very early in the morning or late in the evening. • Never leave a dog in a car, not even for a few minutes. • Make sure they have constant access to fresh water and shade. • Avoid hot pavements, which can burn paws in seconds. • If your dog doesn't need exercise, skip the walk. A missed walk is far safer than heatstroke.
Please keep an eye out for any dog that appears to be in distress and, if you can, offer water to dogs you may see with homeless owners.
These next few days will test us all, but together we can help keep every dog as safe as possible.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support Foster Sanctuary and the work we do. 🧡

Today I have met Lucy, Mark and Katie, Henry Nowak’s mother, father and stepmother. Their courage is extraordinary.
They have endured the most appalling loss, it is a life sentence for them.
They have also faced the agonising decision to release the harrowing body-worn camera footage, knowing how painful it would be and how strongly people would react. They did so because they want truth, accountability and change.
They have asked that we work across political parties and religions to rebuild trust in the police. That trust has been broken because of what happened, and I agree with them on that.
We must also be prepared to examine, carefully and seriously, religious practices or exemptions that permit the carrying of dangerous weapons in public, and other activities that are not conducive to the public good. We also need to examine where the law needs to change.
Henry’s family do not want anger to tear communities apart. They are a family who have friends across faith and race, and so did Henry. His family want his memory to help bring our society together.
Everyone knows I have strong views about how we should deal with equality under the law. What the family agreed with me on is that we need to bring common sense back, and that is what we should all be fighting for.
I promised the family that we will work to ensure there is a positive legacy for Henry out of this tragedy.
That is my focus now.
We should all take a moment to appreciate the brave police officers who apprehended the suspected terrorist in Golders Green.
Knowing they were putting their own lives were on the line.
Knowing they were being filmed.
Knowing malevolent forces in this country (like Polanski) would try to falsely paint their actions as brutality.
In reality they were not just proportionate, they were courageous and no doubt saved lives.
My deepest gratitude to those brave officers.
God speed.
