Horrible pride level here that I got my first genius award on the Bristol train platform on the NYT pastimes…

Keir Starmer & £53 million support for oil heating: that is less than £1 per person in the UK which is hardly going to balance out the chaos caused by DJ Trump...

We are living through a time when our leaders have no plans for the outcomes of the wars they start, and they show no signs of changing their habits, says @CliveSSmith independent.co.uk/voices/history…

Why oh why does Britain not make non-doms pay UK tax (like the US does)? theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

Tennessee Madness turned back: Bill to make Abortion homicide (perhaps eligible for the death penalty?) rejected eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

Andre Thomas, hearing voices since aged 10, is too mentally impaired even to attend his own competency hearing: why does Texas persist in trying to execute him? #google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">davisvanguard.org/2026/03/texas-…

People don’t like to talk about race in Britain but it’s important to recognise institutional biases when, if you’re black, you’re FORTY times as likely to be stopped by police theguardian.com/law/2026/mar/1…

I shall be honoured to drink much coffee out of this mug @Aafiamovement

The English Channel is a millpond

Does this absurd process make anyone safer: Tommy Ziegler, 80yo on oxygen in a wheelchair, more than 50yrs on Florida's death row after a biased judge overrode the jury vote against death, denied a new trial yesterday on DNA he claims proves his innocence...

Dr. Aafia Siddiqui’s case is not just personal it’s a global human rights issue. Listen to what Sheikh @omarsuleiman says and help raise awareness. Support the cause: aafiamovement.com/ramadan-appeal

Sadly not atypical: Dallas judge who was facing ethical sanctions beats out reform DA who was trying to clean up miscarriages of justice... texasobserver.org/dallas-county-…

Cedric Ricks set to die in Texas next Wednesday even though the prosecutor "color coded" the jurors when striking them austinchronicle.com/news/texas-pla…

Count down to die a week from today: Sonny Burton, 78 & in a wheelchair, set to suffocate to death in Alabama's Nitrogen Death Chamber even though he didn't kill anyone newsweek.com/alabama-man-de…

Please support Marjaan! My NGO is donating $1000 to her effort to exonerate Kenneth Ransom, executed-when-innocent; just last week in Texas I saw the signed confession of another man to the crime, crowdfunder.co.uk/p/kenneth-ray-…

Jundullah are homicidal morons if they think murdering 80+ Pakistani Christians in Peshawar can be retaliation against the US aa.com.tr/en/world/pakis… I'm proud of @FowziaSiddiqui for saying that is not Islam; tho it's also not Christian to riot violently in response...

Last night, We, the People of Florida, executed Billy Kearse, an intellectually disabled Black man who was just 18 years and 84 days old at the time he tragically shot Sgt. Danny Parrish. It won't bring the poor victim back, & it's unlikely to make the world more civilised...

Oh dear! The Christian Nationalists said this in 2003 (Iraq); now Trump is the Annointed One to bring about the ‘End of Times’ & Jesus’ Second Coming theguardian.com/world/2026/mar…

In the midst of the world's mayhem, please remember that today is Aafia's 54th birthday. FMC Carswell is not a happy place for her to spend it alone, especially while others celebrate Ramadan. @Aafiamovement @FowziaSiddiqui @mariakari1414 @Moazzam_Begg
