@BDooher @johnsweeneyroar You’re a “translater” I think that tells us all we need to know. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

@johnsweeneyroar Glory to Russia 🇷🇺

A simple message from Trafalgar Square to the Killer In The Kremlin. #VPDFO!

IOC bans Vladyslav Heraskevych from wearing helmet featuring teammates slaughtered by Putin. What a dumb, inhumane, depressing decision. I so admire him for standing by his principles 👊👊👊

Wow….not yet ten, and already she’s lost her leg in war, and still found the resilience to advance in professional gymnastics. She’s a true inspiration ❤️

Who on earth would want to go to Trump’s America? He has absolutely trashed the country’s reputation theguardian.com/us-news/2026/f…

When a Slogan Is Easier Than the Truth “Stop the boats” fits neatly on a sign. Explaining Thatcher-era deindustrialisation, regional abandonment, London-centric investment, tax flight and austerity does not. Immigrants didn’t dismantle the Midlands’ economy, but blaming them is far quicker than grappling with history.

War Diary Day 1,434 The Russians’ latest war crime is to bomb a passenger train, killing five. They are not even pretending they want peace. For the White House to believe that they do is an insult to the dead. And the dead to come. #VPDFO!

Kyiv residents share photos and videos on social media showing their freezing apartments and how they are trying to keep warm.

Nigel Farage has kindly asked we stop sharing this video of him talking about why we should privatise the NHS 💙 You know what to do!

A straight out lie from Danny Krueger MP at Reform's event today. He said that asylum seekers go straight to the top of the council housing list. In fact they are *banned by law* from accessing council housing. Further details on Shelter's website here: england.shelter.org.uk/professional_r…

In 1951, a 14-year-old Australian boy named James Harrison woke up in a hospital bed with 100 stitches across his chest. Doctors had just removed one of his lungs. To survive, he needed 13 units of donated blood from complete strangers—people whose names he would never know. His father, Reg, sat beside him and said something that changed his life: "You're only alive because people donated blood." Right there, James made a promise. The moment he turned 18, he would donate blood. He would pay back the gift that saved him. There was just one problem. James was terrified of needles. But in 1954, the day he became eligible, he walked into a blood donation center anyway. He sat in the chair, looked at the ceiling, and let the nurse insert the needle. He never watched. Not once. Not in 64 years. What James didn't know was that his blood was different. After a few donations, doctors discovered something extraordinary. His plasma contained an incredibly rare antibody—likely developed from all those transfusions he received as a boy. This antibody could prevent a deadly condition called Rhesus disease. Before this discovery, thousands of Australian babies were dying every year. When a pregnant woman with Rh-negative blood carried an Rh-positive baby, her body would attack the child's blood cells. Miscarriages. Stillbirths. Brain damage. James's blood held the answer. Doctors asked if he would switch to plasma donation. It meant longer sessions—90 minutes instead of 20. It meant coming in every few weeks for the rest of his life. James thought about his fear. Then he thought about the babies. He said yes. For 64 years, James Harrison never missed an appointment. He donated through joy and heartbreak. He donated while working as a railway clerk. He donated after retiring. He continued even after his wife Barbara passed away in 2005—what he called his "darkest days." Every single time—all 1,173 donations—he looked at the ceiling. He chatted with nurses. He studied the walls. Anything to avoid watching the needle. The fear never left him. But he showed up anyway. In a beautiful twist, his own daughter needed the very medication created from his blood when she became pregnant. His grandson Scott exists because of the choice his grandfather made decades earlier. In May 2018, at age 81, Australian law required James to make his final donation. The room was filled with mothers holding healthy babies—living proof of his quiet heroism. They thanked him through tears. James sat in the chair one last time, looked away from his arm one last time, and gave his 1,173rd donation. Over 3 million doses of Anti-D medication containing his blood have been issued since 1967. Scientists estimate his contributions helped save approximately 2.4 million babies in Australia alone. When people called him a hero, he shrugged it off. "I'm in a safe room, donating blood," he said. "They give me a cup of coffee and something to nibble on. And then I just go on my way. No problem, no hardship." James Harrison died peacefully in his sleep on February 17, 2025. He was 88 years old. We often search for heroes in movies or history books—people with superpowers, wealth, or fame. But sometimes a hero is just someone who keeps a quiet promise for 64 years. Someone who feels fear—deep, trembling fear—and does the right thing anyway. Millions of people are alive today because one man decided his fear mattered less than their lives. What small act of courage could you commit to, even when it scares you

Come on Suella, in you get

Proper LOLs at Suella Braverman defecting to Reform... The party that’s spent years attacking the Home Office has just welcomed the person who actually ran the Home Office. Brilliant work lads.

What a wonderful use of AI I love the song as well.

Bloody well done @CaolanReports!

For a bloke who was supposed to be America First…Trump sure seems obsessed with anywhere but his home turf. #MAGA #FAIL #GreenlandIsNotForSale

War Diary Day 1,426 @realDonaldTrump has gone mad. He's invited the killer in the Kremlin to join his "Peace Board". Meanwhile Ukraine is being hit by Russian bombs and people are freezing. Help Insulate Ukraine. And DTDFO! VPDFO! insulate-ukraine.org

"Battle Hymn of the Republic" is not a song to be taken on lightly ... but in light of this week's New Year Trumpian news onslaught, we're sharing this adaptation, called "Battle Hymn of the Empire" - as Trump goes marching on, and dragging us all back to the nineteenth century.

Donald Trump? No, he's not in the Epstein Files... 👀 x.com/JeffreyxEpstei…
