@Tesco When is a Hovis product not a Hovis product? #ClubcardChallenges

The US has circulated its version of the Memo of Understanding with Iran to G7 leaders in France. It’s as bad if not worse than expected.
— The moment it’s signed (Friday) sanctions on the export of Iran oil are lifted. So the regime can start replenishing its coffers immediately.
— The US commits to doing nothing to undermine or destabilise the Iranian regime (it started the war to remove it).
— The US specifically commits to ending its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz but Iran does not commit specifically to returning the Strait to toll/fee free transit exactly as before the war, with no Iranian control/regulation whatsoever .
— All sanctions against Iran will be dropped should phase two negotiations go well. And America will withdraw its forces from the region.
— The US ‘undertakes’ to work with Iran and Gulf allies to create a $300 billion reconstruction package for Iran. So America will now become a partner with the tyrants of Tehran, who Trump only recently wanted to overthrow, in rebuilding their economy.
— All matters related to Iran’s nuclear capabilities are kicked into the ‘final agreement’ in 60 days time (or longer if necessary).
— No mention of Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities or its financing of terrorist proxies.
And that’s just about it. When Trump insisted the war would only end with ‘unconditional surrender’ it never crossed my mind he meant his own.

After reading @RupertLowe10 and the teams Rape Gang Inquiry Report I cannot believe @GordonBrown would send a circular to the police and social services saying the girls made a conscious decision to be raped. What a disgusting individual you and @HarrietHarman are.

Europeans and American patriots!

Tomorrow, the courts of my country, France, may decide to send me to prison for daring to say on television that “the main danger to women in France is Black African and Arab immigrant men.”

Meanwhile, my own attacker, a Tunisian migrant, is still at large.

I need your help to generate media pressure and hope to be acquitted.

They cannot silence the truth!

Thank you for your support 💪🏻🇫🇷

The Rape Gang Inquiry - what happens next.

I intend to use my parliamentary privilege to name perpetrators and their enablers in the chamber.

This will be done incredibly carefully with our legal team involved every step of the way to ensure that no future prosecutions are jeopardised.

We are cooperating with the authorities in order to help cases be opened and reopened, but my faith in the system to independently deliver justice is not high...

That is why we are pursuing private prosecutions and civil litigation.

A target list has been identified, and it continues to grow.

This all has to be handled very carefully, for obvious reasons, but I am determined to act. We have had enough talk, now we need to act.

Our aim is straightforward.

Put people in prison. Deliver justice. Finally.

We will act. Not talk.

“Bill to prohibit the marriage of first cousins; to prohibit civil partnerships between first cousins; to prohibit sexual activity between first cousins; and for connected purposes.”

Dr Luke Evans has just presented his Bill, which is scheduled for its Second Reading on Friday 15 January 2027.

It’s ironic that Azad Kashmir-born Deputy Speaker Nus Ghani was in the Chair. Labour is unlikely to back it, but watching cousin-marriage champion Iqbal Mohamed defend the practice again should be entertaining.

@Artemisfornow Her IQ could be measured on a 15cm ruler. She is definitely NOT the best we have, but have you ever seen these roles genuinely advertised in a normal way, under any previous administration (except perhaps Ken)?

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

Oh BRILLIANT! I love these interviews.

Stop what you are doing and watch London’s Deputy Mayor! … it is truly staggering that this role pays £148,000 a year and THIS was the best person for the job

And also … we really are this bad 🤡

A follow-up that’s raising questions in Harrow… After two enforcement officers were filmed threatening a man in footage that went viral, Harrow Council said it had taken the matter seriously and that both officers no longer worked for its contractor, Kingdom.

We’ve now been sent further footage that appears to show the same two officers still working in Harrow, in Kingdom uniform, with members of the public questioning why they’re still there.

@elonmusk The fact that 2 libtards have actually posted Community Notes arguing about the precise numbers says it all really. The behaviours are the issue, not the precise number of victims which will probably never be known.

@burgonandball account no longer active as it allowed consumers to publicly communicate with the company. About 70% of the products listed on their website are "SOLD OUT". Going down the pan it seems. Shame, before private equity ruined it, it sold decent tools.

@TheGriftReport Is slack jaw and comedy glasses "prime ministerial" then?

@LizWebsterSBF @elonmusk Are you likening membership of a political club with the mass rape of a quarter of a million children?

And why do you think two wrongs make a right?

A World Cup assistant referee had his finger on his thumb when the camera was on him.

BBC News at Ten spent two minutes on this story - suggesting this might mean he's a white supremacist.

This morning, I appeared on Good Morning Britain in a live interview about the grooming gangs. Before I went on air, I was told not to mention the race of the perpetrators. I, of course, didn’t listen.

I have now received an apology from the editor.

No charges will be brought against the brother of Henry Nowak's killer

Gurpreet Digwa will not face any charges after he falsely accused him of racism and being the aggressor

Marcus Johnstone, of PCD Solicitors, said evidence at the trial of Henry's killer Vickrum Digwa also suggested his brother may have committed perjury, assisted an offender and obstructed police.

Daily Mail revealed that Hampshire Police did not ask the Crown Prosecution Service to consider any case whatsoever against Gurpreet over Henry's murder.

Gurpreet had told police 'we've been racially attacked by a white person' before officers wrongly arrested Henry as he lay dying, 999 audio revealed.

He said: 'We are restraining him now because he has attacked my brother and taken his turban off and he was recording some “s*** on his phone.'

But claims Henry had launched a racist attack were later revealed to be a 'wicked lie'.

Marcus Johnstone told the Daily Mail: ‘There is no doubt Gurpreet Digwa has likely committed one or more criminal offences in assisting his brother to cover up Henry Nowak’s murder.

‘The judge referred to Vickrum Digwa and his mother both perverting the course of justice. It seems incredible his brother was not also charged.

‘This reflects extremely badly on the police.’

Dear Lush (cc Chelmsford City Council),

As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your “Proud of My Stripes” window display.

I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal.

Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated.

They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive.

Around 59,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK every year. Many will undergo surgery - a mastectomy, lumpectomy or other procedure.

Others choose preventive mastectomies because they carry a high-risk BRCA gene mutation.

If a woman chooses to have her breasts removed to affirm a gender identity, that is her personal choice.

I honestly don’t know the number of women who have elective mastectomies for this reason.

What I do know is that it is a tiny number compared with those for whom breast surgery is medically necessary and not something to be celebrated.

I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer - and for their families - when I say this:

Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering.

Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating.

For that reason, I am requesting that the display be removed and that @ChelmsCouncil apologise for promoting it on social media.

Yours sincerely,

Janet Murray

Water company cut supply to 15 000 homes in heatwave but let solar farm use 500 gallons a day to wash panels

During May's hot weather with temperatures reaching 32 degrees C South East Water left 15 000 people in Whitstable Kent without water for up to three point five days meaning residents could not flush toilets shower or wash.

A giant solar farm five miles away at Cleve Hill in Graveney continued to draw up to 500 gallons of water a day from the mains to clean its 500 000 panels at least once a day until May 28.

Residents spotted vans and mobile tanks filling at roadside standpipes for the solar farm while homes in the area had no running water forcing people to queue for bottled supplies.

Local businesses including hotels and pubs faced closures and losses with one boutique hotel spending an extra £8000 on water tanks and estimating total losses of £20,000 due to disrupted weddings.

South East Water said the solar farm had relevant permissions and the usage was in line with expectations while in discussion with contractors to reduce water use.

The solar farm later apologized and said panel cleaning would finish by the end of June after community complaints about the priority given during the outage.
