Jimmy Corry has lived on this Belfast street for 13 years. Now he’s homeless. He’s lost sentimental items forever, including his dad’s possessions.

He told me that he shares the anger many feel about the attack on Monday night but that burning down houses won’t solve anything.

Hannah Spencer from the Greens absolutely skewers the 'dirty grubbiness' of Reform UK sitting behind her, look at their faces! 🤣#PMQs #ReformUK

Folic acid in not natural https://t.co/zRZo4oPr7e So we will ALL have to take 'folic acid' a synthetic element will be added to all white flour by the end of this year. This is to help pregnant women stop neural tube deformities in their babies. ONLY PREGNANT women may need it.

[Dr Clare Craig @ClareCraigPath]

Please sign this petition to end the addition of the synthetic drug folic acid to our flour.

It's being added with the claim it might prevent ~200 neural tube defects.

The trial that claim is based on resulted in 9 dead babies per 'saved' child.

I’m sure we all feel safer this morning knowing this wee shop has been burnt out…. Again.

Well done lads. I’m sure you’re so very proud of yourselves today.

"They've done it to one of their own"

Sky's @ConnorGillies spoke to Jamie Corry, the resident of one of the houses that caught fire in the violent protests that took place in Belfast last night.

@catherine_6907 Well done, but the bloke in the corner of the hedge hadn't got an escape route if the tree twisted and fell towards him.

Nesting Razorbill…stunning birds. Similar to Guillemots they’ll incubate a single egg under their feet

HP Sauce: Parliament on the label, star of the full English, as British as it gets.

American-owned since 2005, and production shifted from its home in Birmingham to the Netherlands.

The English-made swap? Stokes brown sauce, made in Suffolk by a family firm. By all accounts, a cracker.

‘We will clean up city’

@rogerbhx has been speaking to officers over the weekend - and commissioners yesterday afternoon.

But can a bin strike deal be reached?

It’s always difficult to show the scale of seabird cliffs on the Isle of May but all these dots are nesting seabirds (and yes I’m counting them!)

Took me a while to find a download friendly version. This is my all time favourite comedy sketch ever. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have in the UK over the years #tworonnies #fourcandles #comedyclassics

[Birmingham City Council @BhamCityCouncil]

Today marked Birmingham City Council’s new political administration first day in office following Friday’s AGM.

We caught up with Council Leader Cllr Roger Harmer and Deputy Leader Cllr Julien Pritchard to talk about their experiences of the first day and their favourite thing about Birmingham.

[Andrew Gebo @GeboMpls]

People will go on vacation to a place like this and then, back home, they’ll vote to make sure this never happens in their town.

@BowDarrow Perhaps he didn't want a Knighthood, not everyone does.

[Birmingham Dispatch @brumdispatch]

Your Monday briefing has arrived ‼️📍

Top story: at Birmingham city council’s meeting last Friday, Labour and Reform tried to get into bed with the Tories, agreeing to divvy up seven scrutiny roles between them.

Agustí Centelles capturing the ideological complexities of revolutionary Barcelona. This CNT collectivised bus trundling past the Hotel Colon, controlled by the PSUC, Lenin there but above all Stalin watching down. Plaça Catalunya, 1936.

@Farestage @YouTube I saw The Wurzels at Arden Hall Folk Club, Castle Bromwich about then.

Dear England

Stop whining about British wildlife appearing on our currency as if it is a gross infringement of your civil liberties. I didn't go through a world war just so you ninnies could behave like spoiled brats.

Yours sincerely
