To the London black cab driver who found me bloodied in the chaos of central London and drove me all the way to Reading: thank you.

Thank you for cleaning my face. For the sugary tea at the BP garage. For delivering me safely to my friend's front door and refusing to charge me a single penny.

In the trauma of that day, I never asked your name. I don’t think I even thanked you properly, and I am so sorry for that. But I hope you know that I remember you every single year.

You were a hero when London needed one most.

🚨 On this day in 1996, nursery worker Lisa Potts risked her own life to protect a class of three and four year olds from a machete-wielding attacker at St Luke's Primary School in Wolverhampton.

Horrett Campbell, a paranoid schizophrenic who had been planning the attack for two months, struck during a teddy bears' picnic, slashing three mothers waiting outside before turning on the children and 21-year-old Potts, who shielded youngsters under her long skirt as she grabbed and carried them to safety.

She suffered serious injuries to her head, back and both arms, with her arm almost severed, while three children were also hurt, including four-year-old Francesca Quintyne, who needed two metal plates to hold her jaw together.

Potts was awarded the George Medal for bravery by the Queen in 1997, and went on to found the charity Believe to Achieve, before retraining as a nurse and eventually becoming a specialist public health nurse.

In 2022 she became the first Freewoman of the City of Wolverhampton, and has since spoken about forgiving her attacker, who was detained indefinitely in a secure hospital.

@David_Suchet I stopped shopping at Tesco years ago after a senior manager called me a liar when I complained about there not being enough small shopping trolleys outside my local store.

21 years ago we suffered an atrocity where four Islamist terrorists carried out four coordinated suicide bombings, targeting commuters on London's public transport during the morning rush hour. 

They killed 52 people, and injured over 770.

7/7/2005.

Never forget.

38 years ago tonight, 167 men died in the Piper Alpha disaster.

Only 61 survived.

It remains the world's worst offshore oil and gas disaster, and one of the darkest nights in modern Scottish history.

Tonight we remember the men who never came home, the families left behind, and the rescuers who risked everything trying to save others.

Scotland remembers 💙
