Let me say this officially: Up the Toffees 💙
A Toffee at No.10. 💙
Congratulations to Andy Burnham on becoming the UK's Prime Minister. A lifelong Evertonian, long-time Hillsborough Law campaigner, regular @SFoodbanks donor and @EITC fundraiser.
Wishing you nothing but the best in your new role, @andyburnham. 👏

This film is deeply personal. It shows the impossible barriers survivors face, even when there’s evidence. Telling this story has been painful but necessary — because victims deserve better - a justice system that protects, not re-traumatises.
I hope you’ll watch, share, and stand with us in calling for much needed change.
Warning: Some viewers may find the following video distressing.
When Juliana Terlizzi discovered hidden footage on her computer, her world changed. The recordings revealed her then-partner, Hubert Greliak, assaulting her in her own home - acts she had no memory of.

Nadine Lott had no idea her ex-partner, Daniel Murtagh, was going to kill her when she came home from a family celebration.
Despite receiving 42 pints of blood in hospital, Nadine did not survive one of the worst assaults Ireland had ever seen.

Was thinking, the day before the election, about doing this. There's nothing to be gained on this site anymore. Maybe there never was. Only things to be lost, as we just witnessed. Was funny, at times, at least, and an information portal. Now embittered, divisive, childish, chaotic and intentionally so. It's addictive and, ultimately, stupefying by design. The disinformation here is a weapon used on the vulnerable to distill power down to the disingenuous worst of us. It's working. This is a dead end. There are other means. I'm out.🤙🏾
Celebrating my son Caleb’s first game at Goodison with his grandad, @willhanrahan. In a timeless ground of shared memories, we cherish every moment. As Goodison’s era ends, it’s the time we keep that turns fleeting moments into something lasting. @Everton @ChrisWardLondon #COYB
From 2025, UK tourists must apply for ETIAS to visit Europe, adding paperwork and a €7 fee. Flora, a mother of two: "It’s just another hurdle." @RobTravelExpert: "We were asked to be deemed a third country when we left the EU..." euronews.com/travel/2024/09/…
Heightened security at #TaylorSwift's Wembley shows as a response to recent Vienna threats. Fans remain unfazed, confident in the tight measures. 'Intel services are tightly collaborating' - Yair Daren. Met and private security ensure a safe experience for all. For @euronews
Misinformation fueled right-wing mobs. Anti-fascists outnumbered them, but after years of hard line rhetoric and failed policies, 'migrant crisis' tensions simmer. Can Labour pick up the pieces? @nigelfletcher asks: How will they take real action without alienating their base?

Olympic 100m race data: Noah Lyles was last at 40 meters and didn't take the lead until the final few feet. This graph shows time differences as the race progressed, and @LylesNoah amazing, upward trajectory. @teamusa
Today, dozens of hardworking reporters will be covering the British heatwave:
Interviewing overheated people, writing and editing in a van, and then reporting live from the heat about all the hot people they’ve been talking to. 👌🏼
News editors: “careful not to get too hot”
With Labour in power, there's cautious hope for better UK-EU relations amongst London's young European population. @jdportes highlights a determination from both sides to reset but warns outcomes are uncertain due to geopolitical pressures. Will it be possible to make change?

With growing support and calls for a referendum, does Sinn Féin’s victory advance the likelihood of Irish reunification? Polls show 50% favouring it, Sinn Féin with the most seats. It’s a question that may be increasingly difficult to ignore.

Black Voters Matter statement: The debate "reminded us of what we already knew, President Biden often looks and sounds old, and Trump is a racist, fascist pathological liar who only cares about himself and will both end democracy and wreck this economy."
