Dog dumping has started. We have 50! Split over 2 villas, boarding and a few in foster. This is absolutely unsustainable. Vets are reporting that they're getting 100s of calls about putting pets to sleep. 😭

He says: “The world is on the brink of another war - the outcome of which is unknown. The international community has a choice. It is not yet necessary to send their soldiers to war. So our friends must demonstrate their will.”

Kemi Badenoch calls on Labour MPs to speak to her to call a vote of confidence in the PM - tells @LBC @JosephDraper5 "The Prime Minister is in office, not in power. If he can't do the job, then he should step aside and let someone else do it. "I have said it's a matter of when, not if. When, I don't know. That is up to Labour MPs. I made an offer to them last week. If they want to hold a confidence vote, they should come to my whip’s office. I'm the only person who can trigger that as Leader of the Opposition. But the big issue is that the country is not being governed."

Providing practical, step-by-step guidance on manufacturing items usable in terrorism (ricin is a Schedule 5 toxin under ATCSA 2001; mustard gas and chlorine relate to the Chemical Weapons Act 1996) could potentially fall under offences like: Encouraging or assisting terrorism (Terrorism Act 2006, sections 1–2). Dissemination of terrorist publications or information (Terrorism Act 2000/2006 amendments). Or even broader recklessness in providing means for serious harm. Platforms and companies face potential corporate liability, fines, or (in extreme cases) individual accountability for directors if intent or recklessness is shown. Governments (including the UK) have pushed for stronger AI safety guardrails, content moderation, and "red-teaming" to prevent this exact scenario.

Kemi Badenoch
Kemi Badenoch@KemiBadenoch·
I have sacked Robert Jenrick from the Shadow Cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership with immediate effect. I was presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect in a way designed to be as damaging as possible to his Shadow Cabinet colleagues and the wider Conservative Party. The British public are tired of political psychodrama and so am I. They saw too much of it in the last government, they’re seeing too much of it in THIS government. I will not repeat those mistakes.

Just another day in Ukraine while a Russian dictator has paralyzed US foreign policy with promises to enrich America's new royal family.
