More than 200 journalists have now been killed by the IDF in Gaza.
And so many journalists here havenโt expressed a single sliver of solidarity or outrage about it.

For a dude who's often been accused of selfishness in the past. Mo Salah sacrificing any chance of a Balon d'Or to raise a point about human rights shows the measure of the man when compared to opportunist weaklings like Starmer.

Henri Desgrange, the founder of the Tour de France, dreamed of a race so challenging that only one rider would finish. Thanks to Storm Floris, this year's London-Edinburgh-London audax may attain this dubious accolade. #lel2025

And people don't like their personal spaces, like a home, being invaded by strangers. We've lost the truth of a car being a form of transport, and turned it into a personal space meant to fulfil dreams. And for men it's massively about status and bragging rights.

It's because cars are sold on a myth, adverts are invariably empty city centres with a model in the passenger seat, or the ideal family unit going over some empty scenic mountain rd, laughing. When that isn't matched by the reality people feel stupid. But it also feels like a personal space.

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.

You are literally trying to excuse gun violence because some of it is suicidal. You have to be a particularly disturbed individual to pull that statistical trick out to support your sociopathic country, just like trying to argue for faster vehicle speeds when policy is actually saving lives.
