On Yom Kippur many Jewish people in Britain have their phones off to mark the holy day. As it ends at 723pm, some will hear the tragic Manchester news for the first time. At that time, please join many of us to send a message of solidarity to British Jews.Thanks Together coalition for proposing.

Some of the comments on here regarding today’s awful events in Manchester make me sick. If you think British Jews are responsible for the actions of Netanyahu then you share the same platform as those who think British Muslims are responsible for the actions of ISIS. Awful awful people

RIP Jane Goodall (1934-2025)

You really can’t make this shit up… Is there no end to what they’ll do to enrich themselves? Money truly is the root of all evil.

Young people say rising bills stopping them moving out. Low wages, insecure jobs and high cost of living. High rents and property prices; water and energy bills, council tax and insurance. Little chance of savings. No govt curbs profiteering.

Excellent. How many times will they be told the rapture is happening before they realise maybe it’s already happened & maybe, just maybe, being focussed on how good you are rather than how much good you can do isn’t it. You’ve been left behind & were found wanting…. Now settle in with us heathens.

An overseas A&E doctor who has trained and worked in the UK for a decade has said she is 'appalled' by Nigel Farage’s plan to scrap indefinite leave to remain if Reform is elected www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Just to be clear: - Paracetamol does not cause autism. - Sadiq Khan is not introducing Sharia law in the UK - We do not have a massive free speech problem here. - Britain is not on the verge of civil war. These are not controversial subjects or contested, they're just not true.

Taking official photos of my chocolates for the website is always tricky. They are so shiny you can always see reflections, and without fancy equipment it’s a game of trial and error. In this one, you can actually spot what a chocolate sees in the final moments before I eat it.

I will repost this EVERY TIME I SEE IT 🐅❤️

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

Okay, timeline cleanse. 🖤 Everyone who sees this post, quote post 5 things that make you happy My love of a lifetime. My amazing children, all six, who surprise & delight every day. My dear friends. The satisfaction of a good weather drive with all windows open. A quiet moment in my library

Can KPop Demon Hunters save the world? I think it can…

We have indeed

Especially when we've all got the receipt

I hope the powers that be understand that they just made this his most famous art piece.

Manchester’s chief flag-raiser Twamley has put illegal immigrants smuggling days behind him: In 2016, Twamley was stopped at the border. In the back of his Ford Connect van were four Vietnamese people he was attempting to smuggle into the country. 👇 manchestermill.co.uk/manchester-f...

Nigel Farage should testify before MPs on Reform UK's local newspaper ban instead of flying to Washington to complain about "free speech" before the US Congress, the Lib Dems have said.

The movement to rewild Scotland keeps growing 🍂 This autumn, more than 120 #volunteers will join us across six different locations - helping to restore #nature while deepening their own connection to the land. We’re excited to welcome everyone 🧡

At some point chaps, we’re going to have to have a chat about how shit everything is without it being a far right talking point. We need to take the shitness back, take responsibility for how absolutely crap the world has become and work out how we make it better…

We need to stop hiding behind the myth of this strong tradition. There have been core groups who fight for & ensure these goods happen while alongside it - well this… We have a history of a few people fighting for a good thing & at best begrudging tolerance, but also black shirts.

As more people outsource their personal thought processes to AI, Labour run Coventry City Council believe it’s the perfect way to augment already fragile & high risk children’s social care. Where we need most accountability & personal investment we now have this… www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Like an arsonist at the scene of the fire playing with a lighter, the Daily Fail seems to be mystified by the increase in racists attacking people using words like “did you get here in a boat” or “you’re raping our kids”

some of you need to make like travis kelce and engage with a tailor swiftly

I assume they're already cancelling plans for a sequel.

Maybe if everyone who feels the same way wrote something similar, then we'd begin to get through to them & they might understand that what we want (and pay for)is honest reporting of fact & not pure disinformation for clicks. Its worth a try 😉

Governor Newsom is fighting for us.👏💪🏽

Spotted on Reddit. From the stage production of Mostrous Regiment at the Ed Fringe last week. Another reason why Terry Pratchett was the best. Also: "a fantasy writer with vastly less imagination and empathy than Terry" says it far better than I ever could.

We have got to start building a country we can be proud of, a country worth fighting for, a place where hope flows. This is not it. *waves hand at domestic headlines from the Daily Mail*

He was very good in person with his trans fans too. Growing up going to SF cons, I met many trans people before I even knew what trans meant. I gave my parents very little they needed to accept in their child, so they had lots left over for everyone else. 😉 www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...

Finding Safety, is a painting I’m working on today of a long tailed tit building its nest in the heart of a San Damiano cross. It must wait now for a beak full of nesting materials because coffee is calling me and I can no longer resist

The anti trans hate is coming for cis gender women too. If you want to avoid this happening to you, remember to only dress as an ideal feminine female as seen in a 1950s US sitcom or as a 2025 male sexual fantasy. It's not about 'safe spaces', it's about controlling women. #r4today

The moment they tried to take it all and the small gesture that became a huge reminder of goodness…. #smallbusiness #cctv #truecrime
