[Restoring Your Faith in Humanity @HumanityChad]

A massive 7-foot stone statue was unveiled in Cambodia to honor a very small, unlikely hero: a rat named Magawa.

Magawa wasn't just any pet; he was a "HeroRAT" trained by the non-profit APOPO. During his five-year career, he used his incredible sense of smell to sniff out over 100 landmines and unexploded explosives.

Because he was so light, he could walk across minefields without ever setting them off- doing in 20 minutes what would take a human with a metal detector four days.

Magawa passed away peacefully a few years ago, but the statue unveiled this April serves as a permanent thank-you from a nation.

He saved thousands of lives and allowed farmers to return to their fields and children to play safely.

Rest easy, little hero. The fields are safe because of you. 🕊️❤️

Here we have Reform Richard Tice.

He believes in reimposing the cruel two-child benefit cap.

Willingly innocent children back into abject poverty.

Happy for said children to starve.

Whilst he avoids paying a staggering £600,000 in Tax.

Tice = morally bankrupt.

"It's the proudest I've been of our Prime Minister in a long time."

James O'Brien believes Trump's public criticism of Keir Starmer could actually be a good thing.

If this isn’t one of the biggest stories of the day, then it should be.

Americans are stranded in the Middle East because of Donald Trump’s war in Iran, but the the Deputy Chief of Staff and an elected official are helping to fly out MAGA “influencers” on a private jet?

Alex Bruesewitz’s own words on his own post:

“I want to thank White House Deputy Chief of Staff @JamesBlairUSA, Congresswoman @realAnnaPaulina, and all the other U.S. government officials who helped me.”

Macron describes Trump’s threats against Spain as economic coercion and expresses full solidarity with Spain and Sánchez on behalf of France.

This is how we must act in the face of any threat coming from outside Europe.
European solidarity cannot be negotiable and it must not be

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

The Americans sank an Iranian ship near Sri Lanka, in international waters, and abandoned any survivors -- a war crime. This ship was outside the combat zone and on a training exercise.

Literal Nazi behavior.

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

I’m not a fan of Starmer, but whatever he does – literally whatever he does - he is ripped apart, ripped to shreds, by the telegraph, Mail, express, Sun, spectator, the very same people who installed Boris Johnson and the appalling Liz Truss.
The same people who installed the governments that caused Brexit and the financial chaos that has ensued, the same people who have driven this country into the ground.
I’m sick to death of them.
They are the biggest threat to this country and all of us across the board, no matter what our politics are. We need to get billionaires out of the Media

Maybe instead of point‑scoring about Trump, Badenoch could try supporting Britain - oh, yeah - and and her own Prime Minister. #PMQs

He wrote this song about Alex Pretti and Renée Good Saturday and recorded it yesterday.
