This is Skye. He was lured out of Kruger National Park in South Africa a few weeks ago and illegally killed by JARED WHITWORTH from Kentucky during a safari hunt. Skye’s life was worth more than the amusement of a hunter. It’s time to #BanTrophyHunting once and for all!
My previous post below ever more relevant: Home Office official response to @PrivateEyeNews revelation on @IsabelOakeshott running an unregistered UAE/UK foreign lobying entity is "refer matter to police", which is fine, or "Crimestoppers". But look who is behind Crimestoppers...
Thanks @donmcgowan for an extra hand on this.

BREAKING: GET HIS ASS! Rep. Ilhan Omar destroys Trump after he smeared her name — and JD Vance gets dragged right into the mud!
By now, they should know better than to mess with her...
"The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history," Omar wrote on X.
"Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar," she added. "Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is."
She was responding to a hateful, lie-filled Truth Social rant from Trump in which he repeated some of the usual right-wing fever dream conspiracies about Omar, including that she supposedly changed her name and married her brother. Absurdly, he called for the well-liked congresswoman to "IMMEDIATELY resign from Congress."
Omar's response was pitch perfect, because she refused to be pulled into the weeds on Trump's blatant misinformation and instead redirected attention to the fact that this White House is actively covering up the Epstein files.
On top of that, Vance actually did change his name. He was born "James Donald Bowman," was later renamed "James David Hamel" by his mother, and then eventually changed his name to Vance. His constantly shifting name is appropriate for a reptilian-like man who will pretend to believe in anything to get closer to power. He's a slippery, slimy little creature.
Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar is a staunch advocate for her constituents and a fearless progressive who actually wants to improve this country, unlike these MAGA crooks who only want to enrich themselves and obscure their crimes.
This is all so incredibly transparent. Trump is attacking Omar because his popularity is in the toilet and he knows that going after a Black, Muslim, immigrant woman will play well with his base. It doesn't matter that his accusations are untrue, his bigoted supporters will gobble them up. Unfortunately for him, it won't be enough to win in the midterms!
Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Ilhan Omar!
She’s clearly DONE being polite. That reply reads like a woman who’s had enough of being expected to stay composed while people say whatever the fuck they like about her. She’s angry, and she’s saying it plainly.
The UK Labour Government is backing a new age of nuclear power, with thousands of jobs in England. The SNP Government still opposes new nuclear in Scotland. Both governments should be working together so Scotland can share in these jobs and this investment of the future.
