@skytv waited in all day for an installation which was due between 08:00 and 13:00 and nothing. Not a confirmation of a time, an sms or email to say that you’ll be late. Impossible to find a number to call on your website. Utterly hopeless.
Says a former climate change minister whose obsession with net zero pushed up the energy costs of these industries and made them uncompetitive. The hypocrisy is nauseating. Does he think we have no memory?
If your brain isn't healthy, neither are you.
Unfortunately, most people ignore brain health until it's too late—when memory fades, focus disappears, and dementia sets in.
So, here's how to protect and optimize your brain (for life): 🧵
I’ve said before, THIS is journalism.
A must 𝙬𝙖𝙩𝙘𝙝 and a must 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙚 in my opinion.
“Where are you? Where are the condemnations? Where are the hysterical marches?
@Erin_Molan calls out hypocrisy amongst “pro-Palestinians”
She just nails it.
As the father of girls the same age, it’s hard to comprehend the evil of the grooming gang perpetrators laid bare in these sentencing remarks.
I will continue to campaign for *whole life* sentences.
And for the prosecution of all those who covered this up.
Sky News deleted this clip. It shows one of the Muslim men in a balaclava holding a knife and attempting to slash the tyres of the Sky broadcast van.
This isn’t ’protecting yourself’ or the actions of someone who is a victim, he should not get a free pass.
Two Afghan migrants bully & mock a British homeless man. A native Pashto speaker translates:
“Why is he so dirty?"
Answer “He doesn’t wash himself, doesn’t pray & won’t listen to his parents” then they all laugh at him.
I hope the hotel, food & WiFi are up to scratch chaps.

Yesterday, the British Parliament changed the way it operates because the Speaker was afraid that some parliamentarians would be murdered if they couldn't be seen to vote for a ceasefire in a war on the other side of the world.
This isn't democracy. This is a country that is unwilling to live by its own rules in order to placate a violent mob.
And efforts are already being made to sweep this reality under the carpet as they did with the murder of Sir David Amess. We can't afford that. We have to be honest and admit it:
We have a problem with Islamist extremism that requires immediate and drastic action. Appeasement doesn't work. If intimidation and threats of violence produce results like the one we saw yesterday, this will only encourage more intimidation and threats of violence.
The government, both the major parties, the police and the security services need to understand we no longer have the luxury of pretending this issue away.
People who threaten violence should be arrested and locked up for a very long time. If the threats are directed against elected MPs, that is an attempt to subvert our democracy and should be treated as such, i.e. met with severe sentences.
Foreign nationals who engage in, call for, fund or glorify violence, religious hatred or other violent extremism should be deported immediately.
We must be honest with ourselves. If we do not act now, as sadly I am certain we won't, the result will be more violence and more intimidation. It is not a pleasant truth to have to admit but things will only get worse if we refuse to speak it.
