Police update: "Five casualties have now been discharged from hospital, and one remains in a life-threatening condition. "This casualty is a member of LNER rail staff who was on the train at the time and tried to stop the attacker. "Detectives have reviewed the CCTV from the train, and it is clear his actions were nothing short of heroic and undoubtedly saved many people's lives." Wow. God willing, he pulls through.

The method of animal slaughter should be determined exclusively by the most humane practices, aligned with the highest animal welfare standards, rather than being influenced by religious or personal ideologies.

Yes

Greatest President ever!

I am today proposing legislation to Parliament to prohibit quantitative easing without the express consent of democratically elected MPs. QE is essentially the state printing money, billions and billions, to bail itself out - devaluing all of our earnings and savings in the process. If you insert vast amounts of new cash into the system, what does that do to existing funds? It all becomes worth less. Inflation, and lots of it. QE has now become a mainstream tool to avoid the Darwinian reality of capitalism. I want the state to live within its means, just as the rest of us are forced to do so. It raises money through tax, it can then spend that money. It should not be permitted to print mountains of cash to fund unaffordable policies - lockdown is the primary example of that. Let's have a state that is as accountable to its people, as the people are to the state.

Why is the convention to refer to the rape of children in Britain as ‘grooming’? Grooming is what you do to improve the appearance of your horse or dog. We should not use a euphemism to describe the most vile and evil acts because it normalizes them, and allows one to think they are acceptable in society. Words matter. We need to call out evil in the starkest possible terms and take every necessary step to rid the world of it. Let’s not talk about grooming. These are pedophiles gang raping young girls. We need to understand this viscerally so it tears at our humanity and causes us all to lose sleep. Pretend it is your daughter. That will motivate us all to act.

@Rose_MayB @netflix This is so astute

@netflix Lmao. Watching fake people pretend to be authentic is so funny because authenticity is the one thing you can never believably fake, and they do not get it at all.

@shawtyastrology I'm pisces moon and did have a difficult childhood. A couple of my friends are Virgo moon and I think that's really challenging, it's a super self critical and depressive adjacent position.

🖤🌕 some of THE MOST difficult but POWERFUL moon signs to have in ASTROLOGY: 🌕🖤 - scorpio moon ♏️🌕 - moon in the 8th house 8️⃣✨ - moon at 8° or 20° ✨ - capricorn moon ♑️🌕 - moon in the 10th house 🔟✨ - moon at 10° or 22° ✨ - aquarius moon ♒️🌕 - moon sign at 11° 💙✨ - moon sign at 23° ✨ - pisces moon ♓️🌕 - moon in the 12th house 1️⃣2️⃣✨ - moon at 12° or 24° ✨ these are some of the most difficult BUT powerful moon signs to have in astrology. 🥺✨ this is because having these moon signs will often make you a very strong & resilient person due to the traumas, hardship and challenges you had to deal with growing up. 🔥✨ while it wasn’t always easy, the lessons you’ve learned from the hardship you faced often made you wiser, smarter, more courageous & helped you to get to where you are today. this is your reminder to celebrate yourself today. 🖤✨

This is the brutal reality of life for women under the Islamic Republic in Iran. A woman in Tehran sent me this photo of her scarred back, flogged for the “crime” of showing her hair. Yet, she refuses to be silenced. Holding a Woman, Life, Freedom slogan, she took this photo as a powerful act of defiance, declaring: “The morality police arrested me for resisting their van. My ‘crime’ was unveiling. After months of court hearings, I was sentenced to 74 lashes. The cleric overseeing the punishment stood there to ensure it was carried out. I won’t give up my fight against this brutal regime, but we are fed up with living as prisoners in our own homeland.” Her scars tell the story of oppression, but her courage speaks of a revolution. This is a barbaric law, this is terrorism. How is this different from ISIS?

This makes me physically sick

@sophielouisecc Turning around so your head is at the other side of the bed can also help, as well as very deep, slow breathing when trying to fall asleep.

@sophielouisecc Joke answer - have a baby and you will be so tired you will fall asleep anywhere! Real answer, having struggled with insomnia in my early twenties - add to the above list - (1) have a routine and try to go to bed and get up at similar times each day (2) yoga before bed

Another 3am rolls around. Still can’t sleep - tried everything. - I play football and walk everywhere - eat dinner way before I try sleep - don’t sleep during the day - and paint for at least before I try go to sleep Sleeping is impossible I’m sure of it but not being able to sleep is making me feel ill

@sophielouisecc Oh also download daily mudra app and they have some hand poses for insomnia which are genuinely amazing!

@sophielouisecc (3) herbal Nytol (4) clean bedsheets (5) black out curtains (6) no screen time before bed (7) bed is only used for sleeping and sex. Good luck!

Where are the protests?

I don't care that Huw Edwards: * was of previously good character (question that) * Admitted guilt quickly * Is remorseful * Has depression * Has to do a course * Cooperated with police * Might commit suicide in prison I do care about * the children harmed for life. * the paedophiles who breathe a sigh of relief at this sentence * about the convicted paedophile who supplied the images also walking free And yet call a man a man in a tweet and risk being sent to jail instantly these days. CHILDREN are precious and are the future Paedophiles should ALWAYS go to jail. Do you agree or not and why?

Who Agrees with Rowan Atkinson?

Freedom of speech is the bedrock of democracy. If the truth is suppressed, it is impossible to make an informed voting decision. The degree to which freedom of speech is being undermined around the world is extremely alarming.

@GOVUK The United Kingdom will now be referred to as "Airstrip One." They are threatening to arrest people for wrongthink
