A beautiful film of life in London in the 1960s.

It dawned on me today just how quickly we are losing the Greatest Generation.

Every time one of these wartime veterans passes away, we lose a living link to one of humanity's darkest hours and one of its finest.

These were the men and women who endured war, fought tyranny, sacrificed so much, and then quietly rebuilt the world afterwards.

Soon, they will all be gone.

We owe them more than we can ever repay, and we must never forget what they did for us. 🇬🇧❤️

Well, @HantsPolice
Is it true it was two WOMEN officers who handcuffed and mocked Henry Nowak as he lay dying?
An eighteen-year-old student, helpless and treated like scum in his fear and panic.
Dear God.
No excuses.
Where is the bodycam footage?

This morning, a 65 year-old man woke up in the early hours and heard thieves in his garage.

He called the police. Unfortunately, the officer on the phone told him they don't have any police officers free at the moment.

The guy hung up and then called again in a moment and tells the officer:
- it's about these thieves in my garage.
Don't bother coming anymore i’ve shot them.

After literally 2 minutes, 4 police cars, Armed response, counter terrorists, ambulances turned up,..... Thieves were obviously caught.

Police officers had a chat with the gentleman
Officer says - " You said you shot them! "
Gentlemen - " And you said you don't have a free police car "

Once upon a time...
Our children were safe.
And our women were safe, too.
Safety. Peace of mind. Security.
All of these aspects of life need restoring today.
No ifs. No buts. No excuses. It just needs doing!
