The roof starting to go onto Tina’s hospital. I still genuinely don’t feel like it’s real. All I can think of is the 1000s of street dogs who will have their lives changed here. Tina would just love it 🎾❤️

Knowing how highly Kemi Badenoch prizes her lack of gaffes, she might wish to correct the softening effect of her chosen words: ‘We wanted him to be our mayoral candidate.’ Jeffrey Archer WAS the Tories’ mayoral candidate, endorsed by Margaret Thatcher and John Major, until his crimes were exposed.

If Ofsted is judging school standards, context is irrelevant. If it is judging school effectiveness, context is everything. The problem comes when they do the former but it is interpreted as the latter.

You can see him looking around in wonder today with his big sore leg wondering where he is. It might not seem like it now but that whack from a car might be the best thing that ever happened to Bruno

We are trying everything to get Mr Big back on his paws. He's set off today to the big hospital where a series of tests and specialists are waiting for him. Keep him in your thoughts. We hope to have some answers tomorrow for this gentle older dog we love so much ❤️

I’m hopeful we got to this boy just in time today. Always find it amazing that people hit dogs and keep driving. He was frozen in fear and badly injured but he is safe with us now 🤞

think that every survivor of SA should write an essay about the impact it had on their lives and send it to Cornell. This is bullshit. These guys need to be punished. Shame on them and Cornell.

Come on down to the Council House for International Day of Birmingham, see the Re-Union Jack ♥️ #OneBrum Goldship have repurposed dozens of dirty & torn polyester flags removed from Birmingham's lamp posts to create a huge Union Jack, adorned with the names of people who have called Birmingham home

Photo of artwork description
GOLDSHIP Re-Union Jack 2026

Repurposed polyester flags/Mixed media.

Re-Union Jack is an ongoing community art project conceived by GoldShip, the creative duo of textile sculptor Clare Elisabeth and event producer Sam Shipman.

Repurposing dozens of dirty and torn polyester flags removed from Birmingham's lamp posts, Clare and Sam, alongside countless contributors from the wider community, pieced them together to create a huge Union Jack.

The flag was then transformed over several months by countless more contributors into a visual celebration of the people and stories that have helped shape the West Midlands. Across its surface are the names of influential Midlanders, spanning from the Anglo-Saxon Beorma, after whom Birmingham takes its name, through to the present day. Each has a connection to migration, immigration or the positive influence of people who have made the West Midlands their home.

Together, these names reflect the region's extraordinary history as a vibrant melting pot of cultures, ideas, talent and communities - and the positive contribution that migration has made to its identity.

The flag has since been signed in black by many of the people whose names feature upon it as a collective endorsement of its message of unity, inclusion and community.

Mr Big really is one of the happiest dogs ever. He’s back with us right now fighting for his life. This was the first time we saved him. My dream is to get him back running and into that hammock again smiling. He’s just a brilliant dog 🤞
