From Russia to the far right: the shadowy forces challenging the NHS puberty blockers trial | Good Law Project CitizenGO is backed by Russian oligarchs and linked to the far right. Good Law Project’s undercover investigation shows that it’s ramping up its work in the UK.

🚨 You may have seen the news that N Ireland has pulled out of the puberty blocker trial due to a judicial review attempting to halt it.

You may not have seen is that the lawsuit is funded by a global anti-abortion Christian Right group. My investigation: goodlawproject.org/from-russia-...

Disappointing to hear of the racist backlash Edwin Edogbo endured as he made his debut on the Irish team at the weekend for the Six Nations match.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Awful to hold a five-year-old in custody. Glad he has been released

To snatch a five year old carrying a school bag from the street and tell the parents nothing as you send that child to a prison thousands of kilometres away is unalloyed evil.

Every person in this chain of command should be prosecuted. Every single one. They have to be.

The UK was better off in the EU and Europe was better off with the UK in it.

All of this Trump driven chaos underlines that and you can practically hear Putin rubbing his hands in Moscow.

WE have deliberately weakened ourselves, our security and our region for absolutely no good purpose at all.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

Hi all.

Are ye ready?

2 important notes:

- Today's sunset will be the earliest, but the grand adult sthretch in the evenings doesn't start until tomorrow's sunset.

- Will you help get #TheGrandStretchIsBack trending?!! (whatever that might mean on this network!)

The question I need an answer is is: When is The Pitt going to be available in the UK? The biggest show of the year and we still don't have it when the second season will be out in a couple of weeks.
