🚨NEW: The migrants who died crossing the channel this morning were a woman and a 16-year-old girl, both of which did not die from drowning, but were "found dead inside the boat" An investigation has been launched [@SkyNews]

@thecircusbrain @RachelMoiselle ... or should I say conveniently forgotten.

@thecircusbrain @RachelMoiselle That bit has all been quietly forgotten.

This video is less than two minutes long and I implore everyone to watch it. It is indeed rather extraordinary. As Holocaust Awareness Ireland says, Patrick Kielty exhibits utter callousness with respect to the attacks on the Jewish community, astonishingly saying ‘the backdrop of that is obviously the horrors in Gaza, this is a complex thing.’ Boy George remains calm and says ‘if you don’t know any Jewish people maybe that’s the problem.’ He then asks the audience ‘do you know any Jewish people?’ Boy George is visibly taken aback by the ensuing silence, and vocalises his shock twice, remarking that it is ‘weird’ and ‘surprising me a little bit.’ Patrick looks uncomfortable and ends puts an end to the topic with a dismissive ‘mmm’. Extraordinary viewing. Just extraordinary.

The Green Party has complained about this cartoon of Zack Polanski by the The Times. They’re deeply unhappy with it. Whatever you do, do not repost!

@wroyrose @ksorbs 'everyone'? Go on...

@ksorbs Do you think the greedy Christians are burning them for the insurance money like everyone says?

This is insane. The historic Église Saint-Cyriaque church in Montenach, France, was just set on fire. Survived both world wars but couldn’t survive diversity.

I’m sure we have all now seen the footage of Metropolitan rozzers kicking a suspected terrorist in the head, repeatedly, when he was down. We can all play a part in putting an end to this sort of police brutality. Mainly by not going around stabbing people.

I can’t think of a single country other than Britain that would allow you to stab two police officers and then grant you citizenship.

@Randomjanitor86 @MeylockWizardX @primetateHQ Ah, borders do matter after all 🤷‍♂️

@MeylockWizardX @primetateHQ Damn right!

@London_W4 @WeAreFairCop Sadly, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if today's police took more action against this man's post than the incident involving his daughter.

I was woken this morning at 1:45am to the sound of breaking glass and then the sound of an outboard boat engine heading away. My youngest daughter lives in a narrowboat that is moored alongside mine here in London. As I got up to see what was going on, my phone went and it was her. She had woken to someone smashing her bedroom window with a hammer, two feet from her head as she slept. She was covered in glass. Her bed was covered in glass. I rushed around and her window was completely smashed. It will have taken them several attempts to smash the whole window out as they had. Everywhere was glass. On my daughter, on the bed. Everywhere. She called the police in tears and badly shaken and they told her they weren’t going to bother coming out as it had happened now and that was that. She got a crime reference number. A young woman in London has her bedroom window smashed in the middle of the night as she sleeps and the police aren’t interested. I need to tell you all; it is essential that you realise that we do not have a police service in this country. It is essential that you realise that and take measures as I am doing, to protect yourself and your family. You will not receive help from the police. I am not now going to rant about who I believe they are here to protect, but it certainly isn’t decent, working people like my daughter. I’m incredibly proud of my daughter who is of course, very, very shaken up. This was an horrendous incident but with a bloke smashing her bedroom window in as she slept, I don’t need to explain that it could have been far worse. I could not despise the police more. They’re not fit to wear a uniform. I shall ensure that anyone who harms my family will be far less healthy than they began the day. I’m really angry. I’ve spent the night emptying the millions of glass shards from my daughter’s duvet, sheets and pillowcases. Her head was within two feet of where someone with a hammer was smashing in her bedroom window. I’ve boarded up the window to make it secure. Take care out there people. You are alone when this happens. Ensure you can protect yourself. It’s all you have. There is no support and no backup. Please realise that and take action to defend yourself and your family.

@GlobalYawning @AngryBritbong @RupertLowe10 Ahh, thanks for clarifying! Racist then. Nice.

Banning foreigners from claiming benefits is not racist, but even if for some mad unknown reason you think it is? I really don't care.

May 16th. 4 nations 1 Kingdom. Some people talk the talk. Some walk the walk. Your voices will be heard. Not to be missed. Join the cultural revolution 🇬🇧

@SkySports If there's one good thing to come out of this 'new era', it's my discovery of GT3 racing. It's infinitely better than the F1 dross served up by the @fia

The new era of F1 continues

@LeeHurstComic I assumed they've already got one and were on holiday.

When do we give them a house in the UK?

@hackney_diamond @AngryBritbong @RupertLowe10 Yep. Include all of those in the ban 👍🏻

@AngryBritbong @RupertLowe10 Well off the top of my head here’s a few different types: Accepted asylum seekers Asylum seekers waiting for process People who have emigrated People here on work visas People born here from emigrated parents Students Let’s be a little less vague shall we?

@BBCMOTD "But changing audience behaviours..." This is what I never understand about you lot. At least have the courage to own your agenda and not blame everything else. DEI woke-driven nonsense is what killed Football Focus, and will continue to do the same across the industry

An incredible 52-year journey comes to an end. Following extensive consideration, BBC Sport has made the difficult decision to say goodbye to Football Focus at the end of this season. First broadcast in 1974, Football Focus is a testament to the brilliant team who have worked on it over the years and, of course, the audience. The programme has been a staple of the BBC’s football coverage for decades, providing fans with interviews, analysis and stories from across the game ahead of the weekend’s fixtures. But changing audience behaviours mean fans are now increasingly consuming football content in different ways and we need to respond appropriately as we face difficult decisions around how the licence fee is spent. Fans are accessing discussion, highlights, analysis and news through digital platforms and on-demand viewing and as viewing habits continue to evolve, it is right that BBC Sport adapts how it brings football coverage to the widest audiences across television, radio, online and to its extensive social platforms. BBC Sport boasts a strong football rights portfolio and is set to significantly expand its digital output this year growing content across BBC platforms, as well as a bold new slate of exclusive shows on YouTube. Featuring fresh formats, big personalities and more frequent, always-on content tailored for digital audiences, the expansion will bring fans closer to the game than ever before delivering more high-quality, accessible and engaging football coverage at scale. We will release further details on these plans in the coming months.

@VirgilHilts01 @BBCMOTD Truth hurts, brother. Truth hurts.

@BBCMOTD I wondered how long it would take for the meatheads to take over this thread and turns out it was instantaneous.

@PolitlcsUK Tell us about the lobsters, Cathy.

🚨 WATCH: Keir Starmer reveals his wife Victoria is encouraging him to stay on as Prime Minister "I confide in her all the time. Hers is the best advice. I'm just thankful that I've got her everyday"

@PolitlcsUK Rats, the lot of them.

🚨 NEW: Angela Rayner is set to back Keir Starmer and vote against referring him to the Privileges Committee tomorrow

@vpopulimedia There are no reporting restrictions on this case. Currently still on a break, held up by jury preparation. They are conducting a questionnaire to ensure no conflicts of interest.
