Proud of England for taking a stand and pointedly refusing to play any cricket at all against the cheats.

Sharing this whilst noting that "economically valuable" is a disgusting term
A majority of PIP recipients undertake economically valuable or wellbeing-enhancing activities that they could not do without support.
Close to half (47 per cent) report that the benefit enables them to do at least one "economically valuable" activity, including working, training or caring.

As Kushner and Witkoff land in Moscow for their latest round of shoe licking and selfies …. musk and Trump really are forces of evil in this war
Received briefings from Minister of Defense of Ukraine Yevhenii Khmara and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi. Unfortunately, our units have been recording significant disruptions to Starshield’s operations over the territory of Ukraine for several days now – along the entire front line and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. Specifically, systematic speed restrictions are being imposed on Starshield, limiting it to 161 kilometers per hour (100 miles per hour). The Ukrainian military have already investigated the circumstances, and these are not random errors but systematic speed restrictions. For us, this primarily means a significant complication in intercepting Russian jet-powered drones. Unfortunately, there have already been strikes that got through because our interception systems cannot reach sufficient speeds and are unable to intercept in time. Unfortunately, this is helping the Russians kill more Ukrainians and carry out more accurate strikes against Ukraine. We are trying to establish all the circumstances with the American side.

Europe must not enter into negotiations with Russia while it continues its war of aggression. This is a trap that could lead to the disintegration of Europe. Instead, Europe should adopt a clear strategic objective: peace can be restored only when the aggressor has been defeated economically, diplomatically and, in Ukraine, militarily.

We are appalled and outraged by the Israeli airstrike on Nasser hospital in Gaza, Palestine, last night. We have already treated three people injured in the attack.
It is unconscionable that patients and medical staff are once again being killed and injured inside a hospital, a place where lives should be saved, not taken.
We urge world leaders to move beyond statements of condemnation and take concrete action to ensure the protection of patients, healthcare workers, and facilities in Gaza. The continued attacks on healthcare cannot be met with silence and impunity.

Brilliant speech by ex-C4 current affairs chief Dorothy Byrne about importance of journalism & the issues media outlets should be investigating. At the 50th anniversary of @CityStGeorges journalism course… hopefully Dorothy’s speech will be available online:

Hold on. If my album goes to No.1 tomorrow, all I have to do is tell you my favourite cheese, and you’ll give £1000 to a charity of my choice and legally change your name to James Blunt?
Deal. People - let’s get to work.

A US soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier reprimanded a group including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after laughter was heard at Arlington National Cemetery.
Hegseth, his wife and senior aides had been posing for photographs following a Veterans Day ceremony when someone in the group laughed.
The soldier shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”
The Pentagon defended Hegseth’s respect for fallen service members, while acknowledging that the soldier had “correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum”.

To be clear everyone: JON GAUNT IS ON A LIST OF PEOPLE I TELL PRODUCERS I WILL NOT WORK WITH. Blocking you now Jon. Didn’t realise I hadn’t already.

Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed: "Can you imagine being Pete Hegseth right now? Like, why are you still in your job? I mean, it's an open question. Like, Pete, like really just open question. Why are you still doing this job? You are really bad at this. You are failing your responsibility. You have mishandled this war."

Palantir has secured its largest known police contract in England, worth £10m, yet the public notice includes no contract text or details of what data will be brought together.
So what exactly are forces paying for? ⤵️

Lucy Beaumont is currently on tour. Looks like her next gig is Bristol on the 17th, next week. I really really hope she receives a massive standing ovation from the start. We need more people with moral courage like her, she's a hero.

Wait a minute. Besides the medical records, some of the data that @Grok lost to the world sounds very sensitive.
