@andrew_sova_ @jackyapping @YouGov I'd take the family's. Gamble n=4 and my unlucky arse would lose all 4.

@cerebrus187 @danhinvesting @BradInv94 Do pay extra for a day flight. We thought we'd save a bit by travelling out at 5am and back at 10pm. With transfers at the other end it's not worth it. 🫠

@HJB_News__ I don't understand who benefits from this and why national security isn't as important

‘We have never seen anything like that’

GB News presenter Martin Daubney says around 165 illegal migrants have arrived in the UK on a ‘mega dinghy’, breaking the record for the number crammed onto a single migrant boat.

This was a difficult piece to write. It was also necessary.

I am one of the 8,711 victims warned that our attackers could be released early under Labour’s scheme. People should know who stands to benefit.

Malcolm James, then in his late fifties, kidnapped me in 2019, shortly after my fourteenth birthday. He held me for several hours and repeatedly sexually assaulted me.

I remained silent until Sarah Everard disappeared. She was abducted from a road that crosses the one from which I had been taken. I feared that the same men were responsible, and that my silence had allowed it to happen again.

James was convicted of five sexual offences against a child. He is a repeat offender with previous convictions, including for violence. I already believed his eight year sentence was inadequate. Now he may be released earlier still.

Andy Burnham has promised to review this scheme. He must exclude rapists, child sex offenders and repeat violent criminals.

I refuse to have spent longer securing justice than James spends in prison.

Dear @GaryLineker,

You don’t need to wait for Andy Burnham, you can make voluntary donations to HMRC right now.

Good on ya lad.

Axel Rudakubana has been moved from prison to a psychiatric hospital after an assessment by psychologists.

His incarceration will now cost more than £300,000 a year, compared to roughly £60,000 before the Guardian reports.

In any fair society, Rudakubana would hang.

The risk for the government is that as public services stagnate, the welfare state is being increasingly propped up and paid for by people who are growing less likely to use it

Only four in ten UK households make a net contribution to the state

The richest households contribute £57k, the ninth decile £17k, and the eighth £11k. The poorest decile receives about £24k

This is what happens when police don’t take masked up e-bike riders who drive in parks and bike paths seriously. her head was partially internally decapitated!!

This happened in Tamworth..

This could happen to any child. If nothing changes, it is only a matter of time before another family is living our nightmare.
Sienna was riding her bike and playing with her friends after school on a cycle path in the park—a place where children should be able to laugh, play and feel safe. Instead, she was struck by a motorbike that was being ridden where it never should have been. The impact was so violent it snapped her bike in half.

Before this, Sienna was an active, fearless little girl. She loved MMA, backflips on the trampoline, and making everyone around her smile. In an instant, all of that changed. She has suffered life-changing injuries. Her head was partially internally decapitated, and we have been told that the fact she is still here is nothing short of a miracle.
I am angry beyond words. I am heartbroken beyond measure.

To the people who choose to ride motorbikes up and down cycle paths, parks and places where children play: every time you make that choice, you are gambling with someone's life. You may think it won't happen. You may think you are in control. But your decision could kill a child. It nearly killed mine.

No family should ever have to hear the words we heard. No child should have to endure the pain Sienna has endured. No parent should have to watch their child fight for their life because someone chose to ignore the safety of everyone around them.
Sienna is the strongest, bravest, funniest girl I know. She is still fighting every single day. Now we will fight too—not just for her, but for every child who deserves to be safe while playing with their friends.
Please don't wait until the next child isn't as lucky. This has to stop.
