A CNN reporter, a BBC reporter, and an Israeli commando are captured by Hamas in Gaza. The leader of the terrorists said he'd grant them each one last request before they were beheaded. The CNN Reporter said, "I’d like one last hamburger with fries.” The leader nodded and said it would be done. The BBC Reporter said, "I want to describe the scene here and what’s about to happen so my government knows I did the job until the end.” The leader nodded and said it would be done. Then he turned to the Israeli commando and said, “And what is your final wish?” “Kick me in the butt,” said the soldier. “Do not mock me, Jew.” “I’m not kidding. I want you to kick me in the butt.” So the terrorist leader shoved him into the open and kicked him in the behind. The soldier went sprawling but rolled to his knees, pulled a pistol they hadn't found, and shot the leader dead. Then he grabbed a rifle from another terrorist and suddenly they were all dead or fleeing. "You could've done that all along?" asked the Brit. "Yeah, why did you want to be kicked in the butt?" asked the American. “If I hadn't," replied the Israeli, “You two would have reported that I was the aggressor."

Do you agree with me?

Thank you for everything, @SpeechUnion

@BigBearF1 Velcro is such a rip off

The man who invented Velcro has died. RIP.

Judge Nicola Talbot Hadley Lets Offender Walk Free Despite “Grotesque” Child Abuse Material ⛔️ In a decision that has stunned investigators and angered child‑protection advocates, Judge Nicola Talbot Hadley allowed a Felixstowe man to walk free from court despite being caught with tens of thousands of indecent images of children including material he created himself. Christopher Nind, 46, stood in the dock at Ipswich Crown Court facing what police described as “some of the most grotesque and disturbing material ever recovered in Suffolk.” Yet Judge Talbot Hadley imposed a 24month sentence, suspended meaning Nind left court a free man. A Haul So Extreme Officers Struggled to Describe It When officers raided Nind’s home on 6 December 2023, they seized 30 devices and uncovered: 532 Category A images 907 Category B images 42,157 Category C images 274 Category A videos 450 Category B videos 234 Category C videos But the most disturbing discovery was that Nind had inserted himself into child abuse imagery, filming himself performing sexual acts while watching abuse and digitally manipulating images with horror masks and other grotesque additions. PC Nicola Flack of the Internet Child Abuse Investigation Team said the case was “distressing,” adding that Nind had created “movies and images of himself in amongst the child sexual abuse material.” Yet the Judge Opted Against Prison Despite the scale, severity and self‑produced nature of the material, Judge Talbot Hadley chose not to jail him Instead imposing ⬇️ 35 rehabilitation days 100 hours of unpaid work 10year Sexual Harm Prevention Order 10 years sex offenders register A Decision That Raises Serious Questions Child‑protection specialists say the ruling highlights a growing crisis of confidence in sentencing for sexual offences involving children. The sheer volume of material and the fact Nind actively created new abuse content has led to widespread disbelief that a custodial sentence was not imposed. Campaigners argue that suspended sentences in cases like this send a dangerous message: that even the most extreme child abuse material offences can be met with community based penalties. Judge Talbot Hadley insisted rehabilitation could be achieved outside prison. For many, that explanation will do little to quell the outrage.

Come on @Tesco!!! You buy a steak for £11 for a special occasion, looks lovely until you turn it over and realise half of it is fat and sinew. No time to return it so have to pretty much cut it in half to make it edible. Finest my ass!! Do better and stop tricking customers!!

@BellaWallerstei Or the Labour Party HQ

Loving this Roman sign for a brothel in York Museum. Simpler times

@pr0ud_americans Unless they’re building a mosque

This is 100% true, ladies. If you're being followed by someone sketchy and you're not near any police, just pull into any job site—your problem will be solved. Trust me.

@WendtheWalker Shame she wasn’t taught to spell

Two children, two protests. One was taught to love their country. The other was taught to hate.

ITV is filming a drama about Queen Elizabeth I that will portray her as a trans-identifying man who hid his sex and became queen. She will be played by a trans-identifying man, of course. I am so tired of this sh!t. Any historical woman who stepped outside of the narrow gender roles men tried to force upon her gets transed, and this particular idea is even more insulting to women than portraying Elizabeth as a woman who secretly identified as a man. Almost as insulting is the stupidity level of the entire premise. Had Elizabeth been born male, she’d have been Henry VIII’s immediate successor, Anne Boleyn wouldn’t have lost her head, and Jane Seymour would never have wed Henry or produced Edward. We’d also have avoided Bloody Mary. There would have been absolutely no reason to hide a male child’s sex from a king who so desperately wanted a male heir that he broke from the Church in an effort to secure one. archive.ph/nUIxV

This is ITV attempting to normalise men entering female-only spaces. Don't fall for it. Don't be groomed.

The far right racist thugs Starmer talks about 🤣

@HeidiBachram She looks like a cartoon character and expects to be taken seriously? 🤷‍♂️

I’m old enough to remember when cosplayers went to Comic Con and didn’t call for the destruction of the only Jewish State.

A sea of 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇮🇪 flags and Brits singing Sweet Caroline. No face masks, no genocide chants, no adoration for murderous regimes, no support for proscribed groups. @Keir_Starmer is this what hate and division looks like? Looks welcoming to me.

@Natalia_yael4 A A A A A

Simple YES or NO survey. Are you with Israel? A. Yes B. No

To the Metropolitan Police, You believe you are the ones watching us. Let me assure you particularly those of you who came looking for trouble that the tables have turned. We are watching you from every angle, down every street, from every vantage point. Do not ruin today with your usual tactics. Remember your oath: you serve the British people. Not Keir Starmer. Not the political class. Us. We are watching. Conduct yourselves accordingly.

For all that are attending the @TRobinsonNewEra rally today in London, please stay safe. The Green Party is actively rooting against you and they will be there to agitate. You know what you could be faced with so be aware. Steer clear and don’t fall into any traps.

Even a passerby knows that I have the right to sell what I want, but the police are pleasing only one community.

@ClarksonsFarm1 That mean we can start eating them now?

Fantastic news!
