My son died. I know he didn't contribute anything to mankind — he was only two months old — but I like to believe he was destined to do something good for humanity. It's been a while since his death, and I hate to dwell on it so publicly, but I wanted you to know him.

Proper food 😋

True

Britain is constantly told to apologise for history, but rarely thanked for helping destroy the slave trade at huge cost in blood, money, and manpower. If people want to talk reparations, then Britain’s sacrifice in ending that barbaric trade should be part of the discussion.

I know you guys just adore the lush and exotic bougainvillea, so I went on a hunt to find the biggest. This is what I came up so far , somewhere in a small village in Mexico , this giant resides .

Slavery existed for over 5,000 years. Every major civilisation accepted it. For most of history, nobody seriously tried to stop it at scale. Then Britain did something different. It didn’t just pass a law. 👇 In 1807, Britain abolished the slave trade. Then it enforced it. For 60 years, the Royal Navy hunted slave ships. 1,600 ships captured. Around 150,000 people freed. And it cost lives. Around 2,000 British sailors died doing it. Then in 1833: Britain abolished slavery across its empire. 800,000 people set free. It paid £20 million to do it. Around 40 percent of government spending. This wasn’t quick. This wasn’t easy. And it didn’t start with politicians. It started with ordinary people. Women boycotted sugar. Hundreds of thousands of them. Thomas Clarkson rode 35,000 miles to gather evidence. A movement that took decades. This is part of British history. Not perfect.

The Tulip Tree in Chiddingston dates back to 1453, when Henry VI sat on the English throne. Columbus had not yet reached the Americas. The printing press had barely arrived in Europe. Constantinople had just fallen. It has served the village for over 570 years. Today, it operates as a village shop and tearoom, still serving its community more than five centuries later. Fun fact: It was owned by Sir Thomas Boleyn, father of Anne Boleyn. Follow @oaksandlions for more posts about British history. @EnglishHeritage @HistoricEngland #EnglishHistory

The Islamic regime has confirmed the death-sentence of 18 year old Melika Azizi was carried earlier today. Melika was arrested in January 2026 during nation-wide protests and charged with "moharebeh" (waging war against god for allegedly burning Islamic regime symbols. In court, Melika told the judge: "You let so many young people bleed. How can I remain silent? I don't care just kill me" She was a brave young lady!

@wydseno B

Same level, different truth only the sharpest minds see what’s really full ?

@Amara_543fw I only have 2 legs

How many legs do you have?

Britain is 110% self-sufficient in lamb. Let that sink in for a moment. Not "pretty good." Not "mostly fine." One hundred and ten percent. We grow more than we eat and export the rest. We have done this on permanent upland pasture that cannot be used for anything else, managed by farmers whose families have worked the same ground for generations, using animals that have been optimised for these conditions over centuries. 85% self-sufficient in beef. 100% in milk. 90% in eggs. The animal products on your plate, if you're eating in Britain, are almost certainly British. The supply chain is: farm, abattoir, butcher or supermarket. Measured in miles. Sometimes in tens of miles. Now. Your January strawberries are from Egypt. Your year-round peppers are from Spain or Morocco. Your salad leaves are from Israel in winter. Your green beans come from Kenya. Your blueberries are from Peru or Chile. They travel by refrigerated air freight, which is roughly fifty times more carbon-intensive per kilogram than road transport, to sit in a plastic clam shell next to a small flag and the word "fresh." The environmental argument against British animal products is not an environmental argument. It is a geography argument made by people who have not checked where their food comes from. Check where your food comes from.

@WHATSFORDlNNER Crisps yes, marmite yes, crisps and marmite no!
