Footage of a Muslim officer being abused at a protest was widely shared this weekend.   It happened a few weeks ago and we won’t be resharing the video, but yesterday we saw more of the same.   Nobody should have to put up with abuse at work and that includes police officers. 
Arrests were made in all these incidents and we'll be pushing for charges in every case.

On behalf of their client, Zara Sultana, Bindmans Media and Information Law Practise Group requires that I publish the following statement on X, and that such statement must be clearly visible and pinned to my profile for a continuous period of no less than 24 hours: “On 30 March 2026, I published a post on my X account addressed to Zarah Sultana in which I stated that she encourages and incites violence and is friends with terrorists. Those statements are false. I was wrong and offer my sincere apologies to Ms Sultana for the harm and distress caused to her.” It is my very great pleasure to do this, and I reiterate my sincere and repeated offer to meet with Miss Zara Sultana in person to resolve our differences.

@JohnCleese Just got back from taking my 2 dogs out in Dubai. Seems very acceptable and fair here.

Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.

There are fucking idiots on here who see fit to criticise him while sat in their perfect armchair never having made mistakes in their lives. As big brother it’s my job to put those wankers straight. bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

Based on the aerial footage showing dense crowds across Westminster Bridge, Parliament Square, and Whitehall (roughly 1-2 km stretch), my estimate is 100,000-150,000 attendees, accounting for area and typical density (2-3 people/m²). Police reports from multiple sources align at ~110,000. Claims of millions appear overstated.

There is a lot of nonsense and deliberate misinformation about child sexual grooming. Some media only 'care' about certain perpetrators, some politicians talk as if they are the only perpetrators. The facts are very different. blogs.lse.ac.uk/religionglobal…

Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

It's now clear why the BBC dared not air the documentary Doctors under Attack. It shows beyond doubt that Israel is systematically destroying the health sector in Gaza as part of a campaign of genocidal violence. In the UK, watch the film here: channel4.com/programmes/gaz…

Oct 7th, when 36 Israeli children inc one infant were brutally murdered, is rightly commemorated. World leaders condemned it, films were made so it would never be forgotten, the Israeli flag was displayed on public buildings across the globe. March 18th, when 130 Palestinian children were massacred in their sleep, just a mile away, hasn’t even made the front pages. It’s just another day in Gaza.

Am I right in thinking what any woman or girl decides to do themselves has nothing to do with you

@RupertLowe10 And what about this?

Ruud van Nistelrooy was a great servant to Manchester United as a prolific striker. The finisher has now started the long process of United’s recovery which Ruben Amorim can now take on and accelerate. Van Nistelrooy deserves United’s gratitude again as interim, a caretaker who cares, in restoring belief and hope players and fans, improving performances and results, making them more compact and unleashing Amad. He’s quietly reminded people of old United standards and principles. He looked and sounded the part - a dash of class. With Amorim arriving today, Van Nistelrooy probably does move on. But he leaves Old Trafford in a better place than a month ago - and leaves with his managerial credentials enhanced. #MUFC

This is why I criticize the media for manufacturing consent for genocide. The deleted Sky news story and narrative of events in Amsterdam is just a small example of the way Western media has framed not only Gaza, but also Israel’s decades-long occupation and system of apartheid.

@FabrizioRomano Yet they lost to Madrid and didn’t win the trophy … so was that defeat a draw

🔵🎞️ Manchester City have broken Man United’s record for longest unbeaten run in Champions League history with 26 wins. Special night for #MCFC. ✨

@brfootball So now losing on penalties and getting knocked out doesn’t count as a defeat 😂

2️⃣6️⃣ Man City break Man Utd's record for longest unbeaten run in the Champions League 💫

In the last few weeks there have been serious and concerning developments regarding my sons’ father, Imran Khan’s treatment in prison. The Pakistan authorities have stopped all visits to him by his family and his lawyers. They have also postponed all court hearings. In addition to cutting off in- person visits, and in defiance of a court order, his weekly calls to his sons, Sulaiman and Kasim Khan, who are British and who live in London, were stopped on 10th September. We have received reports that the authorities have now turned off the lights and electricity in his cell and he is no longer allowed to leave his cell at any time. The jail cook has been sent on leave. He is now completely isolated, in solitary confinement, literally in the dark, with no contact with the outside world. His lawyers are concerned about his safety and well-being.   These actions come in the context of ongoing targeting of Imran’s family, as well as his party (PTI) members and supporters in an attempt to silence them and all political opposition in Pakistan. Imran’s nephew, Hassan Niazi, a civilian, has been detained in military custody since August 2023. More recently, Imran Khan’s sisters, Uzma and Aleema Khan, who have continued to speak out on his behalf, have also been arrested as they made their way peacefully to a demonstration and they are currently being held in jail, despite there being no proper or lawful basis for their imprisonment.   In June this year the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention found that Imran is unlawfully and arbitrarily detained and called for his immediate release.    As a matter of urgency , we are calling for Imran Khan’s release, and for the release of his sisters and nephew as well as for his sons’ contact with their father to be re-established, so that they may have assurance first-hand that he is well and not being mistreated.

ADHD might be easier for neurotypicals to understand if you know that adhd means that our baseline dopamine is lower than a neurotypical's. A thread on understanding ADHD a little bit more.
