Ever wondered where stolen tools and goods end up? Well, car boot sales are flogging them at rock bottom prices…🤨 I joined Essex Police as they paid one a visit:

Tragic. So near the end of the war they helped to win.
Carve their names with pride 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 5 February 1945. Ravensbrück concentration camp. Special Operations Executive agents, Violette Szabo, Denise Bloch and Lilian Rolfe are taken from the punishment block and informed by camp commandant, Fritz Suhren, that they have been sentenced to death. Taken to the execution alley near the crematorium, they are shot in the back of the head. 1/4

Morning! 😀 I'm pretty sure that number 1 will win the #SundayVote this week, so that means you'll probably prove me wrong! 👇 Is YOUR winner number 1 (TL), 2 (TR), 3 (BL) or 4 (BR)? If you enjoy my work, please show your support with a Repost! Thanks! #dartmoor

BREAKING - according to the latest Survation detailed polling, Reform is WINNING in Great Yarmouth. A vote for the Conservatives here is a vote FOR Labour. Vote Reform, get Reform. If you want to keep Labour out in Great Yarmouth, you MUST vote Reform.

🇫🇷 8 June 1944 Violette Szabo wakes up in Madame Rebière's store in the small village of Sussac (87194) near Limoges. It has been a short night after being parachuted in during the early hours of the morning with her other SOE colleagues. After a welcome breakfast, the team leader, Philippe Liewer makes plans... 1/5

Lord David Frost for me. A real Conservative intellect.
Let's be honest, none of these would beat Labour in a General Election. But if it has to be one, Kemi is the obvious choice. She's easily the most intelligent of the three, and hasn't got the baggage of being ineffective in Cabinet hanging over her. Perhaps this is more about the Tories having a leader for change, when they are in opposition, later this year....

Filmed in Turville which was also the location for Vicar of Dibley and Goodnight Uncle Tom.
Last night we watched Elizabeth Allan and Thora Hird as Land Army Girls in the 1942 film "Went the Day Well ?" Set in an English village occupied by disguised German paratroopers .. tonight’s film can only be “The Eagle Has Landed”

This man hopes to be the first Prime Minister created entirely by AI.
If the entire left get behind this man we will rid the country of this appalling government..

We all know he's a complete drip but he crowned the King and I don't suppose he had much choice. A case of honouring the office holder rather than the man I suspect.
Archbishop of Canterbury @JustinWelby given knighthood in personal gift of @KingCharlesUK yet he meekly closed churches during covid & then needed a sabbatical. Weak & insipid

True to its pedigree !!

Such a shame that Szabo and the rest of them didn’t qualify for a VC, an injustice that needs to be looked at imho.
