Disgusting. Lisa Nandy doubling down on Laura Kuennsburg show this morning, saying that we owe it to our veterans to have the Erasmus+ scheme with the EU.
Absolutely disgusting, trying to leverage dead servicemen as an excuse to rejoin EU schemes. Beyond the pale.

🖤 A Black Day For Remembrance Weekend
This weekend, something has shifted — and not for the better.
For over a century, the red poppy has stood alone. It is the universal, unchanging symbol of Remembrance. When blood ran on Flanders Fields, on the Somme, on the beaches of Normandy, in the mud of Korea, the dust of Helmand — it was one colour only: red. It represents the sacrifice of every man and woman who served, regardless of background, creed, or cause. It binds us together in grief and gratitude, above all division.
Yet now we see black poppies laid alongside them — presented not as a personal tribute, but as a public statement, each bearing labels: "Ethnic Minority Veterans Support Network", "Black History Wales 365", "Muslim Council of Wales".
Let me be clear: the service and sacrifice of all veterans, from every community, deserves equal honour. No one disputes that. Those who wore the Monarch’s uniform did so side by side, under one flag, answering one call. Their service is indivisible. Their memory should be too.
But Remembrance Sunday is not a platform for identity politics. It is the one sacred day in the veteran’s calendar when we do not ask who they were — only that they were there, and many did not come home. To fragment our act of Remembrance along cultural or community lines is not inclusion — it is division. It politicises silence. It breaks the single thread that should bind all our tributes into one.
If we truly value the contribution of minority veterans, we should recognise them within our shared act of Remembrance — not carve them out into separate wreaths, separate symbols, separate narratives. The red poppy already belongs to them. It always has. It was there for them on the battlefield; it should be there for them at the memorial.
When we lay different colours at the Cenotaph, we do not celebrate difference — we dilute the meaning of the one symbol that transcends it. The blood that was shed was not black or white or brown. It was red. And that red should be enough for all of us.
Lest we forget — lest we become the generation that remembers everything except unity.

Nu skändas statyn av Anne Frank. De är avskyvärda dessa Palestina huliganer. Ju mer jag ser dem världen över ju mer avsky känner jag. Den mest lögnaktiga rörelse som finns idag,fullt jämförbara med nazisterna. Samma f-b antisemiter.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

This is heartbreaking 💔 A dog was left wedged on a Juliet balcony ledge, reportedly in Northolt, with barely enough room to stand.
The man filming says the dog was stuck out there for over an hour at night, during fireworks, while the owner was out with another dog. You can see it pinned sideways between the closed doors and the railings, barking to be let back in. He says that when the owner came home, the response was “report me then I don’t care”.
If you’re worried about an animal, you can call the RSPCA cruelty line on 0300 1234 999.

Stephen Fry has spent years snuggling up to trans ideology while sneering at the women who refuse to play along. He recently decided JK Rowling, a woman who has done nothing more than stand up for women's rights and single sex spaces, is a "lost cause" who got "radicalised by TERFs." The contempt is thick, isn't it?
A self appointed intellectual looking down his nose at a woman for saying biological sex is real and that girls deserve boundaries. There are so, so many of these smug old men it's ridiculous.
This is the same man who, back in 2013 on QI, thought it was funny to recite a limerick about a chaplain whose "real desire was a boy in the choir with a bottom like jelly on springs", which was broadcast minutes before Newsnight ran a report on Jimmy Savile!! How many red flags are needed, exactly? The BBC Trust later called the timing "unfortunate." Unfortunate. 🙄
Then, in 2016 he sat there and told sexual abuse survivors that their self pity got none of his sympathy and that they should "just grow up," casually throwing in the example of an uncle who "touched you in that nasty place."
He apologised later, of course. They always do once the outrage arrives.
This is the same old pattern. The same voices who minimise, joke about, or laugh away the reality of abuse against children are the ones who treat safeguarding and the age of consent as old fashioned inconveniences that can be rewritten when it suits them. Many of us have been saying for years that this erosion was coming. Trans ideology didn't invent it, but it's opened the door wide and given cover to people who want to blur the lines around children, consent and boundaries. And the loudest advocates are often the same ones busy belittling women, dismissing our concerns and tearing down the sex based protections the suffragettes fought for in the first place.
It's not complicated. If you're happy to mock or minimise what happened to children and you're also pushing an ideology that treats sex as optional and safeguarding as bigotry, you don't get to pretend you're on the side of the vulnerable.

Russell Brand has always been a sexual deviant; of that there’s no question.
What concerns me is this: we can convict someone with no physical evidence and sentence them to a likely hefty prison stint- fine. But during the Pakistani grooming scandal, an aborted foetus from a 14-year-old girl matched the DNA of an older Pakistani man who was not convicted.
I’m not upset Brand was convicted; I’m upset that the police, courts and judges treat perpetrators differently.

I have introduced a bill to introduce compulsory labelling of halal and kosher meat.
Consumers have a right to know what they are eating. Yet every day people are consuming halal and kosher meat without knowing it - that’s meat where the animal has its throat slit and often is not stunned before slaughter.
At its heart, this is a straightforward proposal built on consumer choice, animal welfare and transparency. It is not about banning halal or kosher meat but about the compulsory labelling of it, which is currently only voluntary, so as to ensure consumers know what they are buying.
What began as a limited religious exemption has become an increasingly significant part of meat production.

They gave up the futures they deserved so that our generations might have one.
They never got to grow old. They never got to watch their children grow up, hold their grandchildren, or experience the lives we’ve lived.
They never got to enjoy so many of the ordinary, and so very beautiful things, that we barely give a second thought these days.
The simple privilege of growing old and building a family in a country you love.
These are the joys they were denied, all so that we could live with freedom and prosperity.
When we say that they gave their lives, we must remember what that really means.
They gave everything they were, everything they loved, and everything they might one day have become.
They gave us the chance to live the lives they never could.
The very least we can do is make those lives worthy of their sacrifice.
