Shame on Starmer and Cooper for putting our police in this position

Over the last 20 years, looking at all vaccines administered domestically, there have been 9,933 actual vaccine injuries out of roughly 6.5 billion vaccines administered. Thatโ€™s just 0.015 percent of all vaccines that result in injuries over 20 years. An estimate 4.2 million lives have been saved.

Screenshot of an email: Hi Rachel,
 
Thank you for contacting us about the article youโ€™ve seen.
 
We want our stores to be inclusive and welcoming places for our colleagues and customers. We have written to this customer and explained that our colleagues typically work across all departments in our stores and customers can always ask to speak to the colleague they feel most comfortable with.
 
We also explained that our colleague was asking a customer if they needed help; they were not working on bra fit or offering this.
 
Thank you again for getting in touch.

I wrote to M&S about the stupid lingerie department story - confirms nobody offered a bra fitting to a teenage girl. The Telegraph and JK can (always) do one.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

I called everyone in Jeffrey Epstein's little black book. What I learned about rich people, conspiracy, Ghislaine, stand-up comedy, and evil from 2,000 phone calls.

Wowser ... what a (long),extraordinary read!

Listen up, weaklings: thereโ€™s no Epstein client list. Why are you so obsessed? Yours, Donald J Trump | Marina Hyde Itโ€™s the bonfire of the Maga hats. The real mystery is where their wearers got the idea of a paedophile conspiracy from in the first place, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Measles cases are surging in Europe and the US. This is what the anti-vax conspiracy theory has brought us Nearly 30 years after Andrew Wakefieldโ€™s discredited study linking the MMR vaccine and autism, we badly need an injection of rationality

Those of us who spoke out against antivaxxers early and often were told we should be more understanding

We did understand - theyโ€™re dangerous and thatโ€™s why we spoke out.

Itโ€™s not too late. Speak up - this misinformation is more dangerous by the day.

Children killed by antivax lies.

We must expel this murderous disinformation from our society.

That begins with regulating the online ecosystems where disinformation is not only tolerated by boosted and rewarded. Any platform that refuses to follow the rule of law should be shut down.

111 BBC staff have signed a letter to their bosses saying "The BBC is often performing PR for Israel." and it is unacceptable.

Why is this allowed?

The BBC Board should be fired today.

Like/RT if you agree.

I was extremely honoured to have created the backdrop artwork for the magnificent @nadineshah Glastonbury performance earlier today. Of course you wonโ€™t have seen it on the BBC as they didnโ€™t show any of it.
