Arson attack on ambulances in London being treated as antisemitic hate crime, Metropolitan Police says bbc.in/4rQGwho







While flying at 38,000 feet with 6 and a half hours still to go, I want to set a challenge. And complete it before I land I’m helping to raise money for a boxing club in Rathcoole, Northern Ireland. One of the things they need is 8 new punch bags for the kids who train there, with each one costing £268. I’m wondering if 8 of you would be willing to buy one each. This club supports some of the most underprivileged children in the area and relies heavily on sponsorship to keep going. It gives young people structure, discipline, and a safe place to focus their energy. I’m starting by committing to the first one let’s see if we can come together and make this happen. Hope you have a wonderful day ❤️





Did Stormont Ministers travel to the Washington in business class? @endamcclafferty asked the dFM about the value for money of sending four Stormont Ministers to the US during a cost of living crisis. The dFM said it was value for money and she attended 15 events in 4 days.

🚨BREAKING: Gerry Adams welcomes end of 'case that should never have been taken' and has 'nothing but sympathy for claimants'. 🗣Former @sinnfeinireland President @GerryAdamsSF has welcomed the “emphatic end” of a High Court damages claim against him by three victims of Provisional IRA bombings, saying the case “should never have been brought”. 🎤Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 was in Belfast. On the final day of a two-week trial, lawyers for the victims said the claim against the former Sinn Féin president had been “discontinued” with “no order as to costs”. John Clark, a victim of the 1973 Old Bailey bombing in London; Jonathan Ganesh, a victim of the 1996 London Docklands bombing; and Barry Laycock, a victim of the 1996 Arndale shopping centre bombing in Manchester, had sued Mr Adams for £1 in damages. The case centred on allegations he was a leading member of the Provisional IRA at the time, including on its Army Council. Mr Adams told the court in London he had “no involvement whatsoever” in the bombings and was never a member of the Provisional IRA. His lawyers argued the case should be thrown out as an abuse of process. After a delay to proceedings on Friday, Ms Studd told the court the case would be discontinued after “developments overnight”. She said the development was “related” to arguments around whether the claim was an “abuse of process”. The judge, Mr Justice Swift, said: “I am happy to make an order in the terms the parties have agreed.”
