10 years ago my wife, the mum of our kids & the MP for Batley&Spen was killed by a far right extremist. At anniversaries I try to be optimistic about the future. But not this time. In the ten years since she was killed we have gone backwards & I fear our democracy is now at risk

Funny how most of those howling at the social media ban for under 16’s have union jacks in their bio.

Iran wouldn't release hostages until Carter was gone; Trump wanted an 80th birthday present and talked it up. Iran still has 7 hours plus here to give it to them. Reminds me of the Taliban saying you have the clock; we have the time.

Very sad. Labour through and through, a fine mind and gifted writer, a loyal and hard working deputy to Neil at a vital time in Labour history, and a critical friend to New Labour. Sheffield Wednesday to the very end! RIP Roy

In Iran, people are being killed for demanding freedom. Among them so many children and young people. Many have been arrested. Many have disappeared. Please talk about Iran. This is not politics. This is about human lives.

Just watched this. Absolutely superb. rottentomatoes.com/m/all_my_…

Would love to talk to an architect about the cantilever corner turret or “tourelle”. Some loading there! This with a conical-roofed turret containing oriel-style bay windows on the upper floors is typical of some Victorian commercial architecture. Llanwrst Balti.

The old bank in Llanwrst. The building was designed by Liverpool architect Edmund Kirby and was built by Samuel Giveran Parry in 1860. An imposing edifice it has some unusual front doors with slate inset panels with brass beading.

Good news! Ministers have finally given green light to new #NaturalHistory GCSE. Big hats off to tireless advocate Mary Colwell 🙌 Now young people will be able to get to know & love the natural world & gain vital skills to protect it @curlewcalls🌷🌳 🦅🦡 theguardian.com/education/20…

"How do you even keep your mental health together?" "I don't. I lost it a long time ago. Ever since three of my closest friends and my boyfriend were killed. I was the one who recovered his body from the evacuation point." Ukrainian Defender "Kit" ("Cat") from the Magura Brigade joined the military at the age of 24. Over four years of service, she has fought in some of the war's hottest sectors, including the defense of Donetsk region, the counteroffensive in Zaporizhzhia region, and the Kursk operation. Kit's boyfriend died defending Ukraine in Donetsk region while carrying out a combat mission. "One evening, he brought me the wounded and the fallen from the positions, and the very next evening, he was the one being recovered..." Today, Kit is defending the Sumy region. 📹: Hromadske Radio

RT @PhillipsPOBrien: This might be hard for Americans to hear, but the USA getting humiliated by its abject failure as a power during this…

There's a girl from Belfast who, along with her friend, is offering assistance to minority residents who are afraid to leave their homes to go to the shops or work because of the riots. Bless them.

Just so I’m clear: The first is terrorism and hatred, and the second is just ‘protest’, is this right? 🤔

This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities. I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs. God help this poor woman.

This is Olha, she was 22-year-old. Russia killed her yesterday in overnight attack on Chuhuiv, Kharkiv region 🕯💔 She was seven months pregnant. Olha’s husband is currently serving in the Armed Forces, defending Ukraine. ​Olha worked as a psychologist at "Shans" (Chance), a local comprehensive rehabilitation center for people with disabilities, where she dedicated herself to helping children.

This is quite funny but the accidental joke is almost better...

Strange to think that the far right probably did more criminal damage in a single night than Palestine Solidarity movements have done in the past three years. Two tier policing, indeed.
