50 years today—16 Oct 1975. Remembering the #BaliboFive: Shackleton, Cunningham, Stewart, Peters, Rennie — and Roger East. In 2007 a NSW coroner found they were deliberately killed (murdered) by Indonesian special forces. #PressFreedom #TimorLeste

This is for Kfir and Ariel Bibas. They were ten months and four years old. They were murdered for being Jewish.

Hey @nytimes, we fixed your headline. Apparently telling the truth isn't a requirement for journalism these days.

Gunmen snatch nearly 300 Nigerian schoolchildren from morning assembly. More than 350,000 civilians have been killed in Nigeria by Islamist extremists; 2 million displaced, say the UN. And now this. Not unlike the Hamas raid on Israel. Attackers, probably Islamist militias or allied brigands, storm a school in the second mass abduction in Nigeria in a matter of days as the government struggles to tackle extremist violence and restore order thetimes.co.uk/article/gunme…

I think the time has come when the role of the Police & Crime Commissioner for London who is currently @SadiqKhan is separated from the role of @MayorofLondon Sadiq Khan .. This dual role has become far too politicised along with the link & clear influence on @metpoliceuk .. in addition, his salary is approx £155k as Mayor plus the salary of PCC ..between £70-85k .. The situation has become untenable .. your thoughts ? FYI @10DowningStreet @JamesCleverly
