“Most physically attacked politician”

Jo Cox was stabbed and shot because of your descent into hateful and divisive politics, you despicable cunt.

The 1934 World Cup was hosted by Italy. Mussolini spent millions securing the hosting rights. He’s alleged to have paid Greece not to play against Italy. He lured Argentinians into the Italy team. He pressured referees into making pro-Italy decisions. Result: Italy won the Cup.

I still CANNOT believe humans were gifted a planet full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war.

While football does not cause domestic abuse, stats show that incidents can spike during major tournaments. The 'Unspoken Stat' is called xV, and that stands for expected violence against women after the game.  A study by Lancaster University has shown that domestic abuse incidents can rise by 38% when England lose and 26% even when England win so the xV is a frightening statistic, and we can all help.

Support and information is available from domestic abuse charities @ichoosefreedomcharity & @leedswomensaid or you can call the national domestic abuse helpline number on 0808 2000 #TheUnspokenStat

Please can you bring this up? Seems a no brainer.

Madness. Putting solar panels over car parks, as is required in France, makes every kind of sense. It generates clean power, provides shade to the cars, and protects countryside from solar farms. But the Government has inexplicably rejected it.

Bournemouth's Safeguarding Farce and their dodgy relationship to the new editor of the Bournemouth Echo come under scrutiny in this month's Private Eye.

If these heatwaves teach us anything, it’s that we need to make our cities greener. Plant more trees. Build more parks. Protect the forests we already have. We need more green spaces.

GB News gives its take on climate change - this is what a propaganda campaign looks like.

Who'd have guessed that the GB News co-owner runs a hedge fund with massive investments in oil and gas? https://t.co/0ovkbfBEyP

Always worth remembering that eugenics starts with fomenting hate against the sick and disabled, the 'useless eaters', as the Nazis called them. They're the first target, and never the last. Canaries are singing loud and clear in the coal mines. We should be attending to them.

A Muslim teacher was stabbed in the neck protecting his pupils from a knife attack in Manchester.

The Mirror called him a hero. The Sun. The Independent. LBC. The MEN.

As of today, the BBC has not printed his name.

In 2015, the BBC named a stabbed Bradford teacher the same day.

His name is Maysum Abdullah.

Science teacher. Husband. 27 years old.

When a pupil pulled a knife at Co-op Academy Manchester, he put his body between the blade and his students. He was stabbed in the neck and hand.

His wife Saima: "My husband entered teaching to make a positive difference in young people's lives."

Not one headline tells you he's a Muslim man.

Now imagine the name Abdullah belonged to the attacker.

You don't have to imagine. We watched it after Southport.

Riots in the street. Far-right accounts amplifying his name to millions within hours. Every politician condemning it. Muslim leaders dragged in front of cameras to answer for him.

He ran towards the knife. And his faith vanished from the page.

When we're the suspect, our identity is the headline.

When we're the hero, it disappears.

His name is Maysum Abdullah.

A Muslim man.

Say both.

🚨 England's World Cup kit STOLEN in Kansas City, USA.

Boots for the stars, training balls, gear, all taken from their van en route to the training base.

If this happened in Qatar, South Africa or Brazil?

The media would lose their minds. Wall-to-wall coverage. "Security disaster!" "Failed hosts!" "Crime epidemic!"

But because it's AMERICA?

Mostly crickets. Especially from right-wing outlets in the UK & US who usually hammer these stories everywhere else.

The hypocrisy is insane.

This is the "greatest country on earth" hosting the World Cup? 👇👇👇
