If you can, share these images of the beautiful soul stolen from us by the worst of humanity.

Let his face today burn bright.
Barney, I promise you there will be accountability 💛💚

@guywalters @LucyGoBag This scam was featured twice recently on BBC Radio 4’s You and Yours. Look for the episode that says Warma Uk, Energy Price Cap and Bicycle sales. It’s about 8.20 from the beginning.

@mancunianmedic You’re not alone in this. We’re finding this sort of frustrating problem more and more.

This week Doctors Without Borders shared analysis on the impact of Israel’s DELIBERATE blocking of aid to Gaza.

I can’t find a single headline in Western media. How is further proof of genocide—that is still ongoing—not newsworthy?

Never a bad time to revisit this total and utter evisceration of Nigel Farage by Democrat Representative Jamie Raskin

If it was a boxing match then Farage’s corner would have thrown in the towel

Tremendous

Just in case anyone missed it, yesterday, Reform UK took a local Ipswich artist's work, plagiarised it with Ai and posted it as their own.

So instead of artist, @louisecobbold79 having her art proudly displayed for being on the match day programme, Farage has hijacked her limelight.

As he does … with everything.

It's utterly shameful and should be called out for what it is … IP theft.

@IpswichTown and @ITFCWomen should publicly condemn this.

@HeldinEU I rather like the embroidered tablecloth and how well it goes with the crockery.

@RidgeandFrost @LucyGoBag @mgshanks @SophyRidgeSky Sounds like a good idea to me. Google Balkonkraftwerk - popular in Germany and very useful for apartments with balconies.

Melika Azizi is 18 years old. The regime wants her dead because she isn't afraid of them.
​While the world slept, they raided her home. While they beat her in Lakan Prison, she held her head high. When the judge handed down a death sentence, she didn't beg for her life—she demanded justice for the fallen.
​"How can I stay silent?" she asked.
​We cannot be the ones who stay silent while they try to hang a teenager for her bravery. Silence is a death sentence. Noise is a lifeline.
​ACT NOW: Save this post. Share it. Tag three friends who will help spread her name. We have to make the cost of executing her higher than the cost of letting her go.

Wow! After Donald Trump mocked Gavin Newsom and other people with dyslexia and learning disabilities, Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, just completely torched him.

The end is the best part.

"Britain has decided that the girl who fought the Taliban’s agenda, who learned English in secret, who turned down a forced marriage, who won her place, is an asylum risk. Her name is Bahar. She is 18 years old. She did everything we asked of her."

BREAKING: A letter from Alex Pretti’s Final Nursing Student:

“I was Alex Pretti’s final nursing student. He was my friend and my nursing mentor. For the past four months, I stood shoulder to shoulder with him during my capstone preceptorship at the Minneapolis VA Hospital. There he trained me to care for the sickest of the sick as an ICU nurse. He taught me how to care for arterial and central lines, the intricacies of managing multiple IVs filled with lifesaving solutions, and how to watch over every heartbeat, every breath, and every flicker of life, ready to act the moment they wavered. Techniques intended to heal.

Alex carried patience, compassion and calm as a steady light within him. Even at the very end, that light was there. I recognized his familiar stillness and signature calm composure shining through during those unbearable final moments captured on camera.

It does not surprise me that his final words were, “Are you okay?” Caring for people was at the core of who he was. He was incapable of causing harm. He lived a life of healing, and he lived it well.

Alex believed strongly in the Second Amendment and in the rights rooted in our Constitution and its amendments. He spoke out for justice and peace whenever he could, not only out of obligation, but out of a belief that we are more connected than divided, and that communication would bring us together.

I want his family to know his legacy lives on. I am a better nurse because of the wisdom and skills he instilled in me. I carry his light with me into every room, letting it guide and steady my hands as I heal and care for those in need.

Please honor my friend by standing up for peace, preferably with a cup of black coffee in hand and a couple of pieces of candy in your pocket, just as he would. He would remind you that caring for others is hard work, and we must do whatever it takes to get through the long shifts. Step outside with your dog, breathe in the world, hike or bike as he loved to do, and let yourself find peace in the quiet moments within nature. Stand up for justice and speak with those whose views differ from your own. Hold your beliefs with strength, but always extend love outward, even in the face of adversity.

Take one step, no matter how small, to help heal our world. Through these acts, carry his light forward in his name. Let his legacy continue to heal.”

@HeldinEU So sorry you’ve got all this worry.

@HeldinEU I’d now really appreciate pensioners’ portions that used to be on menus.

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

The continuing efforts of local river guardians to investigate the Cherwell waste dump are really highlighting the utter incompetence of @EnvAgency & their failure to uphold the law.

It now appears that complaints about the rubbish were made by local people as far back as May & the EA actually attended site in July. Having seen the devastation themselves, did they move to shut it down, as they could have done by blocking the site entrance & seeking a simple court order? Nope, they sent the owner of the land a sodding “stern letter” & let the dumping continue until late October! Failing in the same way as they did at Hoad’s Wood shows this is a systemic failure by the EA & needs government intervention.

The investigation didn’t properly start until local river guardians contacted the media this week. Even now, their investigations are bearing more fruit than the EA’s. They guardians have found waste with names & addresses & traced it to the owner, who confirmed they put it in their municipal waste collection. If confirmed this shows the waste is the result of large scale fraud or corruption in the local authority waste management.

Perhaps worst of all, the EA are now denying any duty to clean up the rubbish and plan to just leave it there & “monitor” it. Local river guardians have made a petition demanding a clean up. Please do sign it & support their campaign.

@MartinSLewis We pay into Welsh Hospitals Association and have done so for years. Would definitely recommend it.
