@ODNIgov @NTC_Report @NCTCKent can we bring county EMA directors into this…most are completely out of the loop and play a huge part in prevention & planning

🚨NEW: @ODNIgov is developing an intelligence-sharing app for law enforcement. With this new capability, our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners will soon be able to receive real-time, unclassified intelligence from ODNI’s National Counterterrorism Center that can be immediately actioned to keep the American people safe. @NCTCKent

@crimlawuk Lots of “evidence” out there including his medical exemption as well as other documents "..but hey orange man bad 🙄

Donald Trump famously dodged the Vietnam draft because of "bone spurs", no evidence of which has ever been produced. Now that he is Commander-in-Chief, safe and warm in a Secret Service security bubble, he seems a lot more interested in the military. Maybe because he and his family will not be putting any lives on the line. I feel for those Venezuelans and - before long - the US servicemen and women who will lose their lives and loved ones due to the violent mania of Donald Trump.

@Posted_to_BAOR Back in the day…merry Christmas troops

For all of you remembering Christmas’s past spent in uniform. Prost, Troops 🍺

@davidluxton99 @CivilCspa @laterlives David, I am a pensioner & disabled veteran, haven’t received my CS pension since @CapitaPlc took over, it’s my only source of income..are you in a position to help?

Good positive meeting today of @CivilCspa with our @laterlives partners and our political advisors at Connect, planning our Parliamentary campaigning strategy over the next few months on behalf of older people #pensions #winterfuelpayments #accesstocash CSPA.co.uk

@CapitaPlc @adolfohf @salesforce Shame the only “transforming” you have undertaken to me is not paying my pension this month…and have no clue if or when you can…”experience 🤡

Our CEO @adolfohf spoke with @salesforce about how GenAI is transforming the customer experience we provide on behalf of our clients. Find out more 👉 salesforce.com/eu/blog/ai-pow…

@ChrisMcDonaldMP Well I haven’t received my pension this month since @CapitaPB took over…so not really secure is it…🤡

A pension system that finally works for working people. 🏦 Labour’s reforms mean the average saver could be £29,000 better off… including 800,000 here in the North East. #PensionsReform #SecureRetirement #MakingWorkPay #NorthEast #LabourDelivering

@pcs_union Still haven’t received my CS pension, called them, emailed numerous times nothing back, absolutely clueless @CapitaPB @CSPScheme

In a big step forward for industrial relations for members administering the Civil Service Pension Scheme, PCS and Capita have signed a key union recognition agreement. Pictured signing the agreement are PCS GS Fran Heathcote and Capita's Scott Hill. pcs.org.uk/news-events/ne…

@PublicTech Not true, still haven’t received my UK CS pension @CapitaPB @CapitaPlc

Capita says it has fixed issues with the new administration of the Civil Service Pension Scheme after members reported that technical issues were preventing them from being able to access the scheme’s digital portal. Story ⬇️ publictechnology.net/2025/12/08/bus…

@Posted_to_BAOR Do we need these to come back

Who’s gonna start with the 4 Tonner safety quotes………..

@MarkOrmrod I hear you….i have started doing free “stop the bleed” courses…it helps with that feeling of “doing something useful” and it certainly makes a difference

It’s odd. I have everything a man could ever want in life, literally everything, and I’m unbelievably grateful for it all. I’m lucky enough to have constant opportunities and experiences, which I’m also very grateful for. But despite all of that, for months now the dominant thought in my mind has been the state of this country and my fellow Brits who are suffering. In the military, I felt like I could make a difference. But right now, I feel useless to help.

@NotThatBigIan I may have rose colored glasses, but my service 1985-08 we had a generally safe environment, smartish uniforms, reasonable pay and opportunities to up skill, rank badges and most senior management had some uniformed service…I even got to deploy overseas

We need to start talking about this. Why can't we find UK citizens to work in our jails in the first place? Because they are poorly paid, badly trained & thrown into the maw of violent, drug infested slums where the state can't assert authority properly or protect its people.

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

For every retweet of this post, I will donate £1 to the @VC_and_GC_Assoc up to £50,000. Time is running out following @I_W_M’s decision to close the Lord Ashcroft Gallery. Visit while you still can, to honour the bravery of those who risked so much to protect our great nation.

@sarahadams If any agency wants an BBIED SOP, contact me via pm or on LinkedIn

This week, every law enforcement agency in America should sit down with its leadership and develop clear, actionable SOPs for suicide bombers. They are already here. Do you have the plans, training, and policies in place to protect the public—and even your own officers? The worst time to make a plan is in the middle of the attack. Use now wisely!

@sarahadams I have been routinely offering STB training free to my community including first responders for over two years…@sarahadams is absolutely correct, you need this training

What we saw in Manhattan today is a reminder—EMS won’t enter until the scene is secure. If there’s an active shooter, can you treat the person next to you until help arrives? Most of us have emergency plans for our homes, but incidents like today can happen at work, too. You don’t want to be the one standing there helpless while your coworker bleeds out. Hosting a 'Stop the Bleed' training at your workplace isn’t just smart—it could save lives. Make sure you and your team are ready to provide life-saving care, giving EMS something to work with when they finally are cleared to move in.

@thinkdefence There is much more to military parachuting than simply inserting into hostile environments and seizing ground, much akin to foot drill being more than ceremonial…..once we loose sight of this our effectiveness in battle is lost

𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗 Lets talk about… Parachuting and the British Army a few thoughts

Along with Ricky Gervais’s banned Dutch Barn ads, this is certainly one I’d love to see on a regular basis… 🤣 From Clarkson’s Farm

@OC_Burma_Coy When you stop having fun and the job cannot offer the adventure/s you joined up for or when your ibuprofen intake is greater than you alcohol intake

Genuine question for those who have left the military, how did you know it was time to leave, was it personal or proffesional. Please don't slag off service as that's not what I want. I feel I am at a crossroads, & I am trying to see if what I feel correlates with others. Thanks

You pay a compulsory tax to a state broadcaster that thought it absolutely fine to live stream despicable incitement to violence against a country whose citizens were slaughtered by terrorists *at a music festival*. Welcome to #Glastonbury2025
