I want the Prime Minister to look into a TV camera and say the RNLI are heroes, that we do not change policy by street violence in this country, and that he expects any criminal action to face the full force of the law. That's it. That's all he has to do.

If you can watch Farage laughing and joking with obvious delight as a young woman is beaten up in front of him and still vote for Reform I can only conclude you're an absolute piece of fucking shit. This does not seem an unfair assumption to make.

School uniform grants: Check if you can get up to £200 in support from your council
If you’re on certain benefits, such as Universal Credit, check if you can get up to £200 towards school uniform costs as a non-repayable grant. We've compiled council-by-council help for those in England, where around 15% of authorities offer support, plus info on more widely available schemes in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

In Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal, Robin turns his trademark wit on himself to investigate what actually makes us tick. Through personal stories and candid interviews, he explores the one question we're all too afraid to ask: what even is 'normal'

This is how communities show up for each other. Do read this by Nicola Browne from Act Now👇
Highlighted text:

A group of literally hundreds of people has sprung into action, coordinating, donating, providing lifts for families to get somewhere safe for the night, bringing food to those who don’t want to leave the house, offering shelter, car seats, toys and arts supplies for children. Ordinary people from every background, community and colour are carrying out thousands of acts of care and repair, looking after people they do not know, and showing clearly that none of this is in their name.
