Dad's Army - The Battle of Godfrey's Cottage (8th March 1969). It appears that the Germans have landed. Which means that Mainwaring will have to defend the whole town with only the assistance of Jones and Frazer.

Dammit.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

“Please get the truth out about our son.”

Read and share the statement from the parents of Alex Pretti, the VA ICU nurse who was shot and killed by border patrol.

Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911

"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

One of Igor's former masters had made a ticktock man, all levers and gearwheels and cranks and clockwork. Instead of a brain, it had a long tape punched with holes. Instead of a heart, it had a big spring. Provided everything in the kitchen was very carefully positioned, the thing could sweep the floor and make a passable cup of tea. If it wasn't carefully positioned, or if the ticking, clicking thing hit an unexpected bump, then it'd strip the plaster off the walls and make a furious cup of cat. -Pratchett, Thief of Time

these kinds of videos always prompt a certain Pratchett quote in my brain, from Thief of Time

NHS failing to cut waiting times as promised in recovery plan, report warns Public accounts committee finds Labour’s progress ‘appears to have stalled’ despite billions of pounds in investment

What a shocking waste of opportunity this government has proved to be.
It has squandered its time and attention on ridiculous fiscal rules, persecuting refugees and trashing ecosystems in the name of growth, while failing to deliver what we so desperately want.

As I pointed out recently, Bates authored a paper for Rupert Lowe MP that used an estimate of illegal migration that he knew to be false and had been publicly retracted by its original authors.

Is it wrong for MPs to be landlords?

Britain's homelessness minister, Rushanara Ali, has come under fire for hiking the rent, despite previously speaking out about 'private renters being exploited'.

Is it hypocritical to represent your constituents while charging them rent?

The Lib Dems’ stealthy advance Ed Davey’s party is winning more Labour voters than any of its rivals.

Which party is taking the most votes off Labour? The Lib Dems.

I look at their quiet progress in today's Morning Call. www.newstatesman.com/politics/lib...
