That's an unnerving thing to discover. Can you get security advice from the local police?

UK pledges additional humanitarian support for Gaza International Development Minister Baroness Chapman announced further UK funding for the UN humanitarian response in Gaza.

You would expect the UK sending millions more aid to Gaza & becoming the biggest contributor of aid through the UN's OCHA office would be widely reported in the UK.

After all, it's a big event in one of the most important news stories right now.

But I can only find 1 headline this morning.

Rick + Allison Gill: Gill's FOIA For The Epstein Files A recording from Rick Wilson's live video

My god - Trump sent over 1000 FBI to go through 100,000 Epstein files to look for the thousands of mentions of Trump's name

That's the same kind of firepower the FBI put on 9/11

Will the orange one shut up, if I give him a Gold sticker?

Labour’s Best Start Family Hubs will be rolled out in every local authority by April 2026.

Backed by over £500 million, Hubs will provide help for families.

Under the system left by the Conservatives, one in four families cannot access local children’s centres or Family Hubs.

Was lucky enough to get an advance copy of #BabysBreath from @russincheshire.bsky.social

What a gripping read, genuinely fantastic story that had me hooked from the start. More please!

People are rightly sickened by what the Israeli Govt is permittibg but there's a lot of posturing by those who simply want to put the boot into Labour. The fact remains that the US, and only the US, has any leverage over Netanyahu. Until the US acts, Gaza will remain at the IDF's mercy.

Electric car prices slashed as grant scheme expands to 13 more models The Electric Car Grant will make owning an electric car cheaper and easier for people across the UK.

As promised last week, more EV car models are now eligible for the government's Electric Car Grant.

13 models from Nissan, Renault and Vauxhall join the original 4 from Citroën in cutting £1500 off the price when people buy these new vehicles.

More are expected to be added over the coming weeks.

Saw you post and felt I had to comment. My son had chronic migraines for 10 years, but is now on a daily drug (Atogepant) and monthly injection that has left him migraine free

I agree. He has to be diplomatic (whereas we don't!), so that he doesn't destroy the future of the UK economy

This is so sad. What a waste of a precious life (and so young too)

The glowing band of the Milky Way cuts across the night sky above a silver observatory dome from upper right to lower left. Dark tendrils of dust weave across the dense areas of stars of the Milky Way. The pinpricks of stars dot the rest of the sky.

August 8 is Global Sleep Under the Stars Night 😴 For Rubin scientists on Cerro Pachón, almost every night is spent under the stars! Rubin's sky is incredible because it has:

🌃 Little light pollution
⛰️ Less atmosphere
💦 Low humidity

Good luck trying to sleep with this view! ✨🔭🧪

A close friend of mine, who follows everything that is happening with Covid, told me that people's cognitive function is badly affected by Covid, hence the sh*t behaviour and eruptions of anger. I have Long Covid right now, and I can confirm, that my cognitive function is poor

I'm assuming that this is because of 14 years of Tory non-Governing, shrinking the state and trying to trash the NHS, forcing people to go private?

Sign the Petition Not in our name: Women in support of the trans+ community

We reject discrimination, division, and attempts to speak “in our name” against our trans siblings. Our message is clear: Not in our name.

We call on other cis women trans allies to stand with us. If you believe trans rights are human rights:

👉 Sign & share our open letter: change.org/NION_Women

Allyship isn’t just a word. It’s action.

The trans community need cis people to speak up and stand with them, now more than ever.

People’s liberty is at stake. This is not a drill.

Download the NION poster. Sign the letter. Write to your MP.

You're most welcome 🌞

It's something I never thought I'd witness in my lifetime, but then nobody expected the rise of Hitler either . . .

I get the impression, that Countries, like the UK, are making deals and forging alliances with each other, whilst trying to 'manage' Trump. He's like a ticking time-bomb

If you're busy ranting on this platform about how Kier Starmer & David Lammy are "responsible" for anything happening in Gaza there are several possibilities

You don't understand
You're a Corbynite
You're a Farage stooge

We ALL hate what's happening. To suggest the UK PM can change it is stupid

Every morning, when I look at the news about the US, words fail me

Morning Paul - I've sent you a gift card for Tesco's

Her Name Is Alice: A new 2025 memoir exploring grief, love and the transgender experience, from the mother of Alice Litman Her Name Is Alice: A new 2025 memoir exploring grief, love and the transgender experience, from the mother of Alice Litman eBook : Litman, Caroline: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store

Would there be an appetite for me to start a crowdfunder to get my memoir ‘Her Name Is Alice’ in front of MPs as soon as possible, to help fight the EHRC?

All the feedback I’ve had from cis readers without trans family is they:

a-didn’t know how bad things were
b-feel more kindly to trans people

You're way ahead of me. I'm only just sitting down with my first cuppa of the day in the garden

Well, a girl can hope!

Well, she's resigned, so that should stop the right wing papers from publishing lurid stories

If this was a Tory Minister, there'd be no resignation, and the media wouldn't bat an eyelid over it

I can see in the image, that Fightback4Justice (a legitimate CIC that supports disabled people) is mentioned. I hate the Tories with a vengance

I'll have a look at the website - ta
