Spare a thought for Tony Hill who has been working at break neck speed in blazing hot sun to rebuild the Southport mosque wall before the far right can return.
He said: “And if we have to build it again afterwards we will do just that.”

Crowds assault random Asian man walking down the street in Hartlepool. Crowd laughs. Disgusting and terrifying scenes.

Barbie vs Sindy: who wins? 💇‍♀️

Our Assistant Curator Trish Roberts takes a look at fashion rivals Barbie and Sindy.

The original Barbie was stylish, the ultimate California girl. But her rival Sindy was launched in 1963 as Britain’s answer – with a super cool wardrobe too.

Complete joblessness.

[Metropolitan Police @metpoliceuk]

Yesterday a woman attended a police station, after a picture on social media showed a placard depicting two politicians as coconuts.

The 36-year-old was interviewed under caution on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence.

Thank you to all who have assisted.
