Investor, biodiversity, global warming, introduced the Flat White to London, director of International Rhino Foundation and Conservative Animal Welfare
Gary MacArthur gave 15 years of his life to Sainsbury’s in West Wickham, south-east London.
He wasn’t some troublemaker.
He was the worker who stayed late to make female colleagues feel safer.
The worker who performed CPR on the store’s only security guard after he suffered a suspected stroke.
The worker who had already previously LOST TEETH after being punched by a thief while trying to protect the store.
But after tackling an allegedly aggressive repeat offender known for targeting the branch and stealing bottles of Moët, Bollinger and Veuve Clicquot Sainsbury’s sacked him for gross misconduct.
This was after colleagues screamed there was an “aggressive Champagne thief” in the store.
According to reports, the shoplifter later smashed bottles and hurled them at staff.
Yet Gary MacArthur a man who dedicated 15 years of loyalty, protected colleagues and even helped save a life that same day — was told he should have acted only as a “visual deterrent.”
Absolutely disgusting.
Supermarket workers are being punched, threatened, abused and terrorised by repeat shoplifters on a daily basis… yet the staff who actually step in to protect colleagues and customers are the ones losing their jobs.
Gary MacArthur at Sainsbury’s.
Walker Smith at Waitrose.
Sean Egan at Morrisons.
Gavin Ramsay at Asda.
Decades of loyalty thrown away because they refused to stand by while thieves ran riot.
What kind of country are we becoming where the people trying to protect others lose everything… while the criminals walk straight back out onto the streets?
Trumps biggest geopolitical blunder is Ukraine, by far.
It’s genuinely baffling.
Being friendly with Russia, and harsh on Ukraine, makes no sense strategically, financially and—most importantly—morally.
It’s genuinely insane.
The Vice President Vance literally said that he is PROUD of not supporting Ukraine. What a disgrace.
Russia is not an ally to America.
They stand opposed to the Western world in almost every way.
If they could push a button and make America self destruct, they would.
In Ukraine, you have a brave people who LOVED America. A people who would be powerful allies to the US on multiple levels.
Throwing them under the bus at their time of need is a grave mistake.
Ukraine will rise from this war against their aggressor as a formidable power.
They will get there despite Americas lack of support.
I fully support Trump in his actions against the Islamic regime, and his support for Israel. I will continue supporting and cheering him on in that regard, with alacrity.
But his stance against Ukraine really is an embarrassment. A huge mistake. History will not look kindly on that aspect of his actions.
The suspect in the Golders Green attack was born in Somalia and granted British citizenship.
If found guilty, I would use the Home Secretary’s existing powers under the British Nationality Act 1981 to strip him of his citizenship and deport him from our shores.
A pilot of the 40th Tactical Aviation Brigade, Captain Oleksandr Myhulia, was killed while carrying out a combat mission.
He performed an incredible, desperate maneuver: flying a damaged F-16, he penetrated deep into enemy rear areas and began methodically destroying Russian equipment and positions. In a matter of minutes, his aerial bombs wiped out a колонна, command posts, and concentrations of enemy troops. Pilots who observed the battle say the strike was phenomenal.
But as Oleksandr turned the aircraft to return, it was hit by an enemy missile.
He did not have time to eject.
Oleksandr Myhulia was only 27 years old.
From the first days of the full-scale invasion, he, together with legendary pilots (including Hero of Ukraine Viacheslav Yerko and “Beekeeper”), helped evacuate aircraft from under strikes on the airfield in Vasylkiv. In recent months, he had been constantly operating in the East and South, covering our troops from the air and delivering precise strikes against Russian forces.
He had 160 enemy targets destroyed to his name — a colossal result for a single pilot.
He was one of the best in using French AASM Hammer guided bombs. Thanks to pilots like him, many of our soldiers on the ground stayed alive.
Oleksandr often said he fell in love with the sky thanks to his grandfather, who had dreamed of becoming a pilot but never could. He fulfilled his grandfather’s dream.
He became a legend for all of Ukraine.
@Matt_Pinner I am afraid not. Boris destroyed the United Kingdom’s sovereign balance sheet by profligate and useless spending on hs2 and Covid response and by not attacking structural problems. Starmer is a traitor and an incompetent but he didn’t cause damage on the same scale as Boris.
This is the pre-action letter to the Food Standards Agency on why they are allowing Halal meat to be slaughtered and then sold to the 93% of the British population who are non-Muslims - including in schools, prisons, hospitals, and restaurants.
Anyone who would like to help with legal costs can do so here. @RobinTilbrook and I have done all the work for free. Thank you to everyone who has contributed.

A woman was legally required to kill her baby in the third trimester because the “commissioning parents” for the surrogacy demanded it, and threatened a lawsuit.
The baby was missing two fingers, so the people purchasing this precious child demanded it be aborted, per their contract.
This is eugenics. It’s murder. It’s a baby trade, and it needs to be criminalized.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been formally nominated for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize by University of Oslo Professor Dag Øistein Endsjø, citing his defense of democracy amid russia's invasion.
Trump meltdown in progress.
When Charles de Gaulle led France, he treated public money as something untouchable.
At the Élysée Palace, there was a strict rule for him: no personal expense could ever be paid for by the state.
His wife, Yvonne, kept a small notebook in which she meticulously recorded all family expenses — from food and electricity to clothing and even soap.
At the end of each month, she would send a check to the state treasury, reimbursing every last cent.
Once, an accountant remarked that this was not really necessary.
She calmly replied:
“Everything that is not public is personal.
And for personal matters, we pay ourselves.”
This principle applied without exception.
Their children and grandchildren were not allowed to use official cars for private matters.
De Gaulle himself refused any privileges of office: he paid his own bills at the palace — even for the smallest things, such as soap or family meals.
Moreover, he did not use his presidential salary, living only on his military pension.
After his death, there was no wealth or luxury left behind — only a modest house in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises, purchased before the war.
It is said that he would sometimes personally send money to the treasury if he suspected that any personal expense might have accidentally been covered by the state budget.
This was not a formality.
It was a principle.
✨ An example of true integrity, honor, and responsibility in public service.
@MorEdge_Insight If you voted Labour, conservative or Liberal Democrat then you voted for uncontrolled mass immigration because that is the policy those parties delivered for over 75 years.
