@cbrookmyre Pathetic....come back to me in March if you want me to consider this 🤬

First look at the cover for Quite Ugly One Evening, the new Jack Parlabane novel out in May. It's a locked-room murder mystery set on board a trans-Atlantic liner, and is quite definitely a return to the tone of Quite Ugly One Morning. Pre-order here: geni.us/QuiteUglyOneEv…

@HullNoir This is tiresome.....the book is not available until May next year 🤯

Wonderful book news 📚

PALESTINE Cardinal Pizzaballa stood with the other Patriarchs of the churches in the town of TAYBEH today They CONDEMNED the repeated attacks AGAINST CHRISTIANS by ISRAELIS, saying in a statement: 'Radical Israelis from nearby settlements intentionally set fire near the town’s cemetery and the Church of Saint George, which dates back to the 5th century. Taybeh is the last remaining all-Christian town in the West Bank. These actions are a direct and intentional threat to our local community first and foremost, but also to the historic and religious heritage of our ancestors and holy sites. In the face of such threats, the greatest act of bravery is to continue to call this your home' They also stated: 'We ask for the prayers, attention, and action of the world, particularly that of Christians globally' and 'This is clearly part of the systematic attacks against Christians that we see unfolding throughout the region'

@The_CWA Check out the date!

Don't miss the Book Fest at Leigh Library, 5 June 2025, from 6.30-8.00pm! #ncrm #pickupapageturner #nationalcrimereadingmonth crimereading.com/event/book-fes…

More horrific footage from the Israeli settler pogrom against the Christian village of Taybeh, Ramallah, in the West Bank, where settlers set houses and vehicles on fire.

The Christians of Jerusalem stand in full unity and solidarity with the persecuted Christians of Syria, and strongly condemn the barbaric Islamist terrorist attack on the Mar Elias Church in Damascus.

Although we practiced for 25+ years in rural Somerset, many of the issues were shared.... perhaps Idris needs to come do a holiday locum @aadhand !

Just watched @HullNoir with @aadhand which was excellent. As pharmacists we were delighted to hear Amit describe our profession so eloquently and his emphasis on the relationship with patients.1/x

The Ukrainian capital Kyiv was shrouded in smoke after one of the biggest Russian drone attacks of the full scale war. Explosions went on for hours during the night as air defence forces shot down hundreds of drones and missiles - setting blocks of flats ablaze and damaging the city's St Sophia Cathedral.

@RoryStewartUK How does the significant reduction in locum/bank/temporary staff influence these figures......a weak analysis without factoring this in

And this is the result in the NHS - many more employees but much less improvement by comparison in the service provided (patient appointments etc;)

Getting harder for UK Labour to pin what’s happening in the economy purely on the Conservatives - look at this….

Today, Israeli authorities demolished a Park in the Christian city of Beit Sahour, Bethlehem. Palestinians—Muslims and Christians alike—suffer under the occupation, facing the same policies of destruction and dispossession.

Heading back up north to Newcastle. 🛣️ Where are you watching from today? 🌍

BBC please listen to your customers, the great British public. Millions in cities, towns, villages, in shops, pubs, school gates, literally everywhere, they are talking about 'BBC bias' and the hatchet job on the Chancellor this week. Mason, Kuenssberg, Coburn, Bruce, are guilty.

What you get from Victoria Derbyshire is hard questioning but space for politicians to give full answers. So refreshing compared to petty questions & interruption from Laura Kuennsberg. Its time for a reshuffle at the BBC #bbclaurak

There has been 3 convictions of grooming gangs in the month ⁦@RupertLowe10⁩ Glasgow, Birmingham and yesterday in Manchester and you have been silent on those paedophiles who are white. Your rage is only for people of colour, why is that ⁦@RupertLowe10⁩ ?

*Man appears in court accused of raping and sexually assaulting two children. No, I don't respect his fucking 'identity'.

Remember this is the very same paper that made the case for, supported and championed Adolf Hitler. History really does repeat itself.

There's nothing else for it THE GREAT BRITISH BISHOP OFF 1. Preach Week. All bishops to offer their signature homily, exegesis on a surprise Bible verse hidden under the red gingham, and a showstopper full-length sermon. One to be crowned Star Bishop, another to leave the tent
