We are deeply disturbed at the wholly unjustified protest called for this morning outside a synagogue. We are calling on the police to ensure such protests are kept a significant distance from places of worship to prevent intimidation to members of the Jewish community.

I also saw my late father’s last car (he stopped driving a few years before his death). I remembered the marque & colour, & the reg aside from the numbers. Nothing special as a car, but it was a bit of a shock.

Not a bad spot for brekker.

Damn pigeons

How to cook lamb shoulder really well, a cheaper cut than the prime ones usually folk tend to go for, do it well and it's better ,the fat and crackling to meat ratio is perfect for our pittas

日本はイギリスを先生と思ってきましたよ。 19世紀に侍の政権を倒す革命が起き、アジア初の近代国家を成立。 西洋から多くの文化・制度・哲学を学び取り入れました。 中でも特にイギリスからは、議会・海軍・自動車・地下鉄など。 日本とイギリスは右ハンドル、左側通行の仲間です😀

Honoured to accompany PM Sanae Takaichi to Westminster Abbey for laying wreath to the tomb of the unknown warrior.

An average of 71.2mpg is bad for a spin by the coast, through, the countryside, & through towns.

13 June 1944 (D-Day 7) the first British Army nurses landed on Gold Beach in Normandy... "we landed & were sniped at by Germans. One of our doctors was killed & an orderly was shot & we had to amputate his leg at the side of the road.. everwhere was mined..Lots of dead bodies."

And the sound…

🇫🇷 Merci à nos héros du RAID 🇫🇷 Au commissariat de Mantes-la-Jolie, j’ai eu l’honneur d’échanger longuement avec plusieurs policiers, dont un officier du RAID présent lors de l’intervention du 13 juin 2016 dans la maison de Jessica et Jean-Baptiste. Ce soir-là, face à l’horreur absolue, un terroriste islamiste venait d’assassiner la maman du petit Mathieu, âgé de seulement 3 ans. Malgré le danger, ils y sont allés. Ils ont lancé l’assaut pour arracher cet enfant innocent aux griffes de ce monstre. En écoutant le récit de cet officier, j’en avais la chair de poule. Dix ans plus tard, il s’en souvient comme si c’était hier. Grâce à leur courage, leur sang-froid et leur détermination, ils ont neutralisé le terroriste et sauvé Mathieu. Grâce à cette unité d’élite de la Police nationale, un enfant a pu être rendu à la vie. En les regardant durant la cérémonie, j’ai ressenti une immense fierté. Une profonde admiration. Et beaucoup d’émotion. Alors simplement : un immense merci 🫶. Merci d’être là lorsque tout bascule. Merci d’affronter le pire pour nous protéger. Merci de faire face à l’horreur, à la barbarie, à ce que l’humanité peut parfois produire de plus sombre. Le RAID fait honneur à la France 🇫🇷❤️.

Le Mans and the #MilleMiglialive this weekend, & watching a bit of both when I can. The #1000Miglia is great to watch: no commentary, just the soundtrack provided by the cars. Lovely to watch almost everyone give the cars a wave & the drivers giving a toot in response.

Oh look! One of those things that never happens (a fire in a French church, or rather this time a cathedral library) has happened again: ladepeche.fr/2026/06/12/grav…

🚁 The iconic Chinook ‘Bravo November’ will be on static display at this weekend’s RAF Cosford Air Show (Official) ! 🎉 👀 Here’s a little sneak peek of it leaving the Museum’s Conservation Centre and making its way down to Hangar 1, where the blades have been re-attached, before it was moved onto the Royal Air Force Cosford airfield ready for the weekend. 🔧🚁 ⭐ Exclusively for the Cosford Air Show, aviation fans can get on board the legendary Chinook ‘Bravo November’, for a small donation. 🙌 Known as ‘The Survivor’, Bravo November earned its reputation during the 1982 liberation of the Falkland Islands. After the MS Atlantic Conveyor was struck by a missile and later sank, Bravo November was the sole Chinook to survive, going on to play a crucial role in the conflict. 🚁💪 📍 Head to the Museum’s enclosure on the airfield to see Bravo November, alongside three NEW aircraft acquisitions 🆕✈️: British Aerospace Hawk T1A 🛩️ General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper 🎯 Westland Puma HC1 🚁 See you at Air Show!✈️🎉

FOLLOW THE COUNTRY CODE: I adore this cool, jazzy early 70s PIF, with its swinging soundtrack and gorgeous UAP-style visuals. A miniature work of art!

Per partecipare alla fiera della piccola e media editoria “Più libri più liberi”, che si svolgerà a Roma, le case editrici dovranno ottenere quest’anno il “patentino antifascista”, sottoscrivendo un’apposita dichiarazione. È così che la sinistra concepisce la libertà di pensiero: sei libero, ma solo se dici quello che loro ti permettono di dire, se pensi quello che loro pensano, se leggi quello che loro considerano consono. La cancellazione delle idee non di sinistra, camuffata da lotta antifascista, è un vecchio vizio della sinistra, ma è una storiella alla quale ormai non crede più nessuno. Si chiama, banalmente, censura. E la censura è incompatibile con qualsiasi società democratica.

Awkward @EmilyThornberry Almost Lèse-Majesté. Choose the King, indeed. As if. Forget your own pomp. Do your job. Meet, talk to your constituent. It’s been 4 years. That’s some 1400 days.
