Remembering PC Nicola Hughes and PC Fiona Bone, of @gmpolice who were murdered on duty 14 years ago. 😔
We truly never know what to expect at any call we take.
Nicola and Fiona responded to a call for help, and ultimately gave their lives.
Always remembered.

Graeme Souness, the only man I know who actually knows about football. Declan Rice is the most overrated English play of all time, thank you for someone finally saying it. Yes, he’s great defensively but his ability on the ball he is bang average.
Ran the game yesterday? For tackling and passing it sideways? 😂 that’s not running the game, he’s never dictated a game from midfield in his life
Professional racing driver Ollie Millroy thanks competitor Loek Hartog for saving his life after getting into a fiery crash over the weekend in China.
Millroy says he'd be dead if Hartog hadn't jumped out of his car to pull him out of his burning car.
"I am still alive tonight, entirely thanks to one man. Loek Hartog stopped instantly with no flag marshalls or fire crews in sight, and risked his own life to get me out of the car."
"I don’t remember anything between 30 seconds before the crash and 1 hour after it, but I will remember his incredible act of bravery for the rest of my life..."
"I’m laying here tonight with 5 broken ribs, broken collar bone, broken hand and finger and a bruised lung, but it could have been much worse."
"Thank you Loek. I owe you my life for your selfless act today."
It’s about time I did a giveaway to say thank you for all of the amazing support I receive across social media.
And as my @instagram account is about to reach 20K followers, I thought I’d make up 20 keychains for you to win!
Head over there to find out how 👀

An American soul song became an unlikely a cappella classic for The Housemartins. Originally recorded by Isley-Jasper-Isley, “Caravan of Love” was completely stripped of instrumentation for the Hull band’s 1986 version, putting their vocal harmonies at the centre. The single went on to become The Housemartins’ only UK No. 1. Performing it on The Tube in 1986, the band showcased a very different side from their usual jangly guitar pop.
Hey @TeamYouTube@YouTubeCreators our channel Baby News Network, was removed from YPP for "unsatisfying or off-putting content."
352K subscribers. 133 million views.
You demonetized this same channel in April and restored it 4 days later. Since then the production has only gotten more involved, not less.
Appeal submitted, please take a closer look. 🙏
Remembering PC Keith Dobson, West Midlands Police, who died on this day in 2011 of mesothelioma which he contracted due to exposure to asbestos whilst engaged in police training at various military sites in his capacity as a firearms officer.

It shouldn’t have taken a million signatures for PC Andrew Harper, but it worked. 🫡
A huge thank you to everyone who signed, shared and prioritised the petition, it really did make one hell of a difference. 🔥

🚨🎙️ Jude Bellingham on the role he has assumed under Jose Mourinho;
🗣️“José told me something that stuck: ‘Don’t try to be Toni Kroos. Don’t try to be Zidane. Be Jude Bellingham.’
He reminded me that Toni had qualities I don’t have, but I have strengths Toni never had—so I shouldn’t lose my identity trying to copy someone else. He wants me everywhere: controlling the tempo, pressing high, driving forward, and crashing the box. He’s not trying to reshape me into a past legend; he’s pushing me to become the ultimate version of myself. And when you’re sharing the pitch with players like Vini and Kylian, that freedom is pure joy.”
Your regular reminder that whilst the media and politicians like to tell you otherwise, there are no ‘extra Police Officers’.
Just cancelled rest days and forced overtime, and right now, mutual aid too.
Thank you so much to everyone working hard this weekend.

Cleveland Police have released a tribute from the wife of PC Matthew Blades, who tragically lost his life in Saturday morning's collision on the A66.
Her words are heartbreaking.
𝗡𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁.
She describes Matt as her beloved husband, her best friend and the most devoted father to their two young boys. An adored son and brother, a perfect son-in-law, the most fun uncle, and someone who was loved beyond words by his family and friends.
She also speaks about his service, and the way he gave his life in the line of duty, protecting and serving others with courage, dedication and selflessness.
But it is clear from every word of this tribute that, alongside the officer so many people knew, was the Matt his family knew and loved: a husband, a dad, a son, a brother, an uncle and a friend.
His wife says their children will grow up knowing what an incredible father he was and will always be, and that she will carry his love, his memory and everything they shared with her always.
She also thanked the emergency services and the wider police family for the kindness, compassion, love and support they have shown the family during the most difficult time of their lives.
Perhaps the most powerful words are her own:
𝗛𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗱 ����𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝘂𝘁𝘆 𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗴��𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆.
𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱. 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱. 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗼. 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗮𝗱 ❤️
Our thoughts remain first and foremost with Matt's wife, his two young boys and his entire family, but also with his friends, colleagues at Cleveland Police and everyone affected by this devastating tragedy.
Thank you for your service, Matt. 💙
