More than 50 child asylum seekers still missing after disappearing from Kent care Council data obtained by the Guardian shows 345 children have gone missing in recent years, many probably taken by traffickers

Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day
and he thinks Farage is the right man to
sort Britain out. He says he reminds him
of one of the commanders he fought
alongside with distinction. In the next
few weeks he's going to auction off his
medals and donate all the money to
Reform. Anyone know how much an Iron Cross is worth?

The fall of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is no fall at all.

It comes ELEVEN years too late and has only happened as a damage limitation exercise.

We need to start having a grown up conversation about monarchy... and I'm starting it here.

WASHINGTON-The Pentagon has ordered the National Guard to create "quick reaction" forces in every state and territory by January that are trained and equipped to respond to riots and civil unrest within the U.S., according to internal
Defense Department memos.
The riot control units are a major shift for the Pentagon, underscoring the Trump administration's push to directly involve the military in responding to demonstrations and other domestic missions that have been off-limits except in emergencies.
