Did you know that if someone takes a knife to somewhere – a park for eg – and murders someone, the starting point for their jail sentence is 25 years. But if someone kills in the home with a knife already at the scene, like in the kitchen drawer, the starting point for their jail sentence is 10 years less
Why? It doesn’t make sense
Well now after incredibly determined campaigning by the mums of 3 young women – women who were killed in the home by their boyfriend or ex – the law is being changed
Carole Gould, Julie Devey and Elaine Newborough, from the charity Killed Women have been fighting for SEVEN years for the minimum sentence for domestic murder to be increased
Now it’s happening. The gov says it intends to close the 10 yr gap so domestic killers face higher sentences
The photos below show Julie & Carole, Carole with her daughter Ellie, Julie with her daughter Poppy, and finally Megan
Ellie was 17 when she was murdered
Poppy was 24
Megan was 23

Does anybody from the Kingstanding area of Birmingham recognise this fella?
He stole a lion statue from the front of my nans house at 8:45pm on Friday. It's more than just a lion statue though, as it was bought by my late grandad who sadly passed in January.
Any information about this bloke is appreciated.
Please share, repost, anything you can to push the post and get him recognised and get the statue returned.

Feargal Sharkey, "Water companies... The fines don't work, it's time we actually started upholding the law, and sending some of these executives and directors to jail"

This Japanese man gave up his Ferrari and Company to fund a dog shelter after his pet saved him from taking his own life 🥹
A 54-year-old man named Hirotaka Saito shut down his company and sold his luxury car to open a shelter for dogs. It happened after his own pet saved his life.
Saito sold his Ferrari to buy land and build Wansfree, a shelter where dogs are free from chains. It now houses 40 dogs and eight cats. He hopes to raise funds and expand the shelter to 300 dogs by 2028.
Years ago, during a financial crisis, Saito tried to end his life. His large dog blocked the door and stopped him from leaving. He realized the dog understood and was stopping him.
This changed his mind, and he chose to live for others. He began rescuing aggressive dogs in Japan. Despite being bitten often, Saito patiently showed them love, never giving up on any of them.
He started the Wansfree rescue center in Yaizu. It cares for dogs that bite or act out due to past abuse. The shelter is free and supports dogs that most people find too difficult to handle.
In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism.
It perfectly explains Nigel Farage, Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the entire Right.
This is so disgusting. You don't need any more proof. Vinicius got punished with a yellow card for dancing infront of these racist people.
And by the way, Benfica today said they won't carry out any investigation about the racist fans in their stadium.
So there we have it. Reform UK want to repeal the Equality Act.
This is the law that:
Stops your boss sacking you for being pregnant.
Protects disabled workers who need adjustments to do their job.
Backs up equal pay for women.
Stops people from being harassed at work because they’re LGBT+.
Makes it illegal to refuse someone a job or a service because of their race or religion.
And THIS is what they’ve decided is the problem in Britain?
Not the cost of living.
Not NHS waits.
Not wages. (They said they’d actually them CUT for young people)
But YOUR rights.
THEIR culture wars would TEAR UP protections that millions of hardworking Brits rely on every day.
NO THANKS ❌
Just me saying the last census showed that a million people living in Britain couldn’t speak English, even though the last census shows 161,000 people who couldn’t speak English. Because who needs facts when your supporters are gullible fuckwits?
If anyone in the Norwich area know of any lovely ladies (or gentlemen) who are able to knit some blankets for our NICU babies at NNUH, we are in desperate need 🙏🏻🙏🏻
The patterns we use are below.
Thank you!

In #StJust or #Penzance this morning.
It is gold with a wavy copper wire and one minute diamond, made for me from my mother's and both my grandmothers' rings.
If I find a good photo , I will post it.
Reward for return.

He's a pro-Israel propagandist. He's not Jewish.
He works for a right-wing pro-Israel organisation.
He's posted vile things about Palestinian kids shot by Israeli soldiers.
But Sky News presented him as an ordinary Jewish football fan subjected to online hatred.
