I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Yes, and I think Anne Rice did a similar thing with her Werewolf series and the Prince Lestat book. Sadly she did need an editor !!!

I actually think the HP films are better as they have been opened to more minds and better understanding. The books themselves are formulaic and rambling in the later editions. My HOF refused to teach them!

I agree with thinking allowed as much as I love Laurie Taylor he was getting incomprehensible, like Melvyn Bragg. But You and Yours is inexplicable!!

Dilemma: I have tickets for #DreameryGardens tomorrow, rebooked from September because of the weather, and today is the first day I’ve started to feel less nauseous. It’s a 3 hour round trip, forecast is good and cafe is well stocked. 🤔

You may not relish the tech being forced into every element of your life – but don’t worry, the made-up voters advising government think it’s a great idea! More A-EYE in the new Private Eye, out now.

Three years on, we all remember the horrific events of October 7 and the wave of destruction in Gaza that has followed it. I reiterate my call for an end to the violence, for peace and safety for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy, "How long do you think its going to take for people to forget you ran the country for 14 years?" Helen Whateley, "Kemi has published an essay called The Right Way, really thinking about what's gone wrong with the country" 14 years of Tory austerity 🤷‍♀️

He literally set off a bomb in a UK street. If this had been the IRA Pierce would calling for them to be hung, drawn and quartered. This is domestic terrorism pure and simple. A bomb set off to terrorise with the aim of getting a government to change its policy. Literally a textbook definition.

A retired engineer who destroyed @SadiqKhan ULEZ camera jailed for 15 years. A ridiculous sentence. No wonder our orisons are overcrowded

Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Kevin Rees was sentenced to 15 years for causing an explosion likely to endanger life after using a homemade bomb to destroy a ULEZ camera in a Sidcup residential street, damaging cars and property up to 100m away with shrapnel near a child's bedroom.

To Jewish members of the Green Party: Assurances, from the motion proposers, that they had no intention for Jewish members to feel targeted for their beliefs or associations have been clear. And if anyone else does try to use it in this way, I will be there for you with my solidarity and support.
Statement reads: As Greens, we will always uphold universal human rights.

We will never tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment.

We will continue to stand in opposition to genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid and the illegal occupation.

We will continue to call out the heinous crimes of the Netanyahu government.

And we will continue to work to ensure that the Green Party is an anti-racist party in every way. 

We know there is no conflict between supporting the rights of Palestinians and the rights of Jewish people.

Sir Ian McKellen orates 'The Stranger's Case' from 'Sir Thomas More' by Shakespeare about the Evil May Day xenophobic riot of 1517 in London. This passage was written 400 years ago, but times never change. Humanity refuses to change its unwarranted bias against 'others'.
