'This is wonderful,' defiant locals hang a display of multicultural flags over bridge Activists in a valleys town have clapped back against right wing ideology with a defiant flag display.

Anyone remember a song called "We'll Keep A Welcome In The Hillside ?"
Also, more recently, the "Flags, Is It?" protest against toxic , nationalistic Union Flag displays.

BREAKING: President Donald Trump warns the UK against getting into business with China, saying it would be "very dangerous."

He seems to have forgotten he has agreed to visit Beijing in April and invited Chinese President Xi Jinping for a state visit later next year

Keir Starmer blocking Andy Burnham isnโ€™t leadership โ€” itโ€™s cowardice.
Heโ€™s putting his own job, job that he's doing badly, ahead of the country and the party. Once again, no vision, just self-preservation.
If he carries on like this, he wonโ€™t stop Farage โ€” heโ€™ll hand him power.

My heart goes out to her and his wife. To have grief compounded by Donnie Bone Spurs is the worst case of insult to injury one can imagine.

He joked about bodies piling high in his own country when he was the Prime Minister. Crass, crude, self seeking. People like that never change.
