Why are the media trying to paint this man as some kind of pillar of the community who just made an error? He was behind the wheel under the influence of drugs.

When you’ve been stalked and sexually harassed by another woman for the best part of FIVE years and now you’re about to speak. And now can show journalists not to get news stories from the Twitter feeds of stupid people and fantasists. And then the booker from Newsnight gets fired 😂

In a digital age, police warnings alone may not be enough. Platforms like X need to take greater responsibility for monitoring and removing posts too.

If you see them today, try to take a moment to show our appreciation for all their hard work! A smile, a kind word, or even a small gesture like a card or treat can go a long way to brighten their day. They truly are the magic behind the scenes this festive season! 🎄📮"
