Vickrum Digwa filmed Henry Nowak as he lay dying, zooming in on his face and gloating and abusing him. Utterly horrendous. The Court of Appeal hears that the "degradation" of Henry should contribute to a tougher sentence for Digwa.

The biggest benefits claimant in the UK. They claim an eye watering £17,500,000,000 a year. The same as 4.4m people on benefits. How? Because they claim ALL their costs, every wage, every oil rig, every tanker. Completely nationalised, but the profits are Privatised.
At what point do we stop focusing on who needs to pay more tax and start asking where all of our tax money is going.

Don’t forget the Tories wasted £1bn of our money on useless PPE through political corruption and incompetence.

An investigation has uncovered that Israel spent more than $7m on Social Media between October 2023 and October 2026 to spread racist anti-Muslim, anti-immigration propaganda. The most affected countries were the UK and France. Israel is not an ally.

A heart attack is a medical emergency which happens when your heart can’t get enough oxygen. There's evidence that people living with HIV have an increased risk of having a heart attack. The risk is higher if you have a low CD4 count. aidsmap.com/about-hiv/health…

A major investigation has uncovered an Israel-linked, three-year disinformation operation designed to spread Islamophobia, anti-migrant hatred and far-right conspiracy theories across more than 30 countries. The operation spent £6.12 million generating 800 million advertising exposures across social media platforms. The UK was among the worst-affected countries, with 154.1 million exposures, followed by France (120.6 million), the US (99.7 million), Italy (76.2 million) and Germany (34.3 million). These campaigns include claiming that there's an Islamic invasion and Muslim countries are buying European buildings and converting them into mosques. In the UK, 61% of comments sampled on targeted Facebook adverts expressed support for Islamophobic views. Think about that. Millions spent deliberately exploiting prejudice, spreading conspiracy theories and turning Muslims into scapegoats and to dehumanise them. The Nazi regime also ran a massive, state-sponsored propaganda and disinformation campaign.

Last night Trump said he could have won Vietnam in a week. His plan was “going after Ho Chi Minh City.” Ho Chi Minh City was Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam. Our ally. The enemy’s capital was Hanoi. We bombed it. He called the presidents who fought that war stupid, then explained how he’d have won it by attacking our own side. 58,220 Americans died in that war. Trump got five deferments. Now he’s telling the rest of us how easy it would have been. He’s had more than fifty years to learn which side we were on. He still hasn’t. That alone should disqualify him from sending anybody else’s kids to war. Instead, he’s weighing more strikes on Iran after Tuesday. His administration has reportedly considered using the “mother of all bombs,” the one he calls “like a tiny nuclear bomb.” The man who thinks we should have bombed our ally’s capital gets to choose the targets.

Of the £10bn spent on substandard PPE equipment, £1.7bn of that went to firms who were granted access to the VIP lane – and around £1bn of these funds was squandered on items deemed ‘unfit for use’. Blood boiling.

I was on BBC Breakfast this morning discussing poverty and tragedy chanting. I hope @premierleague Chief Executive Richard Masters was listening. We need to work together to educate supporters about the hurt these chants cause and make clear they have no place in our game. Football fans are among the 14 million people in this country going hungry. Clubs and the @premierleague must work with us at the #RightToFoodCommission to tackle hunger in all our communities get one simple message across. Hunger is a political choice. #HungerDoesntWearClubColours #RightToFood
