Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

The famous guitar riff for Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child o' Mine" originated from a "circus melody" warm-up played by guitarist Slash during a 1986 jam session.
While Slash played the riff in a joking manner, bandmate Izzy Stradlin recognized its potential, and the band built the song around it.

I was aware of it at the time but too numb to appreciate the irony of Palace scoring a winner in the 'play until Liverpool score' minutes.

@beardedgenius.bsky.social I've been enjoying The Good days are coming but
I'm not sure if I can summon the strength to listen this week. Who's the special guest? I'm hoping for Sid Little.

There's no reason why it shouldn't be used for hundreds of years to come.

It looks like a circus big top. Perfect for the clowns we have currently.
It could be great if done right but it could also be all so wrong.
For one thing, Sir Jim doesn't seem 100% on the government funding.
Just buy your ยฃ800 ticket and be grateful.

Musk tweets that Jess Phillips is a rape genocide apologist.

Musk tweets that Jess Phillips is a rape genocide apologist.

In the last decade, two Members of Parliament in the UK have been murdered by extremists.

Elon Musk, with this continued disinformation, risks inspiring another attack or killing.

He is a danger to UK national security and the inaction from UK Government on the subject is no longer sustainable.
