Cadburys Easter eggs are being boycotted in all shops! People do not want palm oil they want the proper eggs we used to have! Get it off the shelves! Boycott Cadbury!

A chocolate maker bought 120 acres of Birmingham slums. 🍫

His name was George Cadbury.

He didn’t build a factory. He built a world.

Every house had a garden. By law. Every single one. 🌿

Schools. Parks. Swimming pools. Cricket pitches. Pensions. Education during working hours.

Workers’ committees that ran the factory floor.

Then in 1900 he put the entire estate into a trust. 🏛️

It could never be sold for profit. Never broken up. Never privatised.

Protected forever.

It still exists today. Still run by the trust.

One man proved that if you treat people well, they don’t just survive. They flourish. 🙏

@JohnCleese But even then, that took the British to sink an allied submarine that was carrying the report that proved Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor so that they weren’t forewarned to spur them into action.

Harry Nilsson's song "Without You" was released in 1971 on his album Nilsson Schmilsson. The song was originally written by Pete Ham and Tom Evans of the band Badfinger, but Nilsson's version is one of the most famous and successful. Nilsson recorded "Without You" in a more emotional and romantic style, which helped make it a huge hit and one of the most memorable songs of his career.

The most beautiful requiem ever written in the history of music. Mozart was a talented genius musician.👏👏👏

ℹ️ One of the most celebrated choral works in classical music, the ‘Lacrimosa’, meaning ‘weeping’, is part of the Roman Catholic Requiem Mass (a mass for the dead), reflecting grief, the plea for mercy, and the hope for eternal rest on the day of judgment.

Pure magic to touch a soul in this way. The older you get, the harder this song hits you.

Grandpa always told me Mozart´s requiem was the greatest musical creation ever made. Just imagine how many other amazingly beautiful masterpieces were never composed, because the great man died so young.

🔥🎸🔥24-year-old Tracy Chapman, virtually unknown at the time, was suddenly pushed onto the Wembley Stadium stage as a last-minute replacement when Stevie Wonder couldn't perform due to a major technical glitch (his synth hard disk went missing). Armed with just her acoustic guitar and raw vocals, she delivered "Fast Car" and left the massive 72,000-person crowd in absolute stunned silence within seconds. This iconic 1988 moment literally launched her career overnight—does it give you goosebumps too? If you've ever heard "Fast Car" live (or even just this version) and didn't get chills or teary-eyed, drop your story below—I need to hear it!
