Ford worker who heckled Trump keeps job, 'no discipline' for incident The United Auto Workers union said TJ Sabula remains employed and called out the president for making an obscene gesture toward the worker.

The Ford worker who heckled Trump during a visit to the company's plant still has his job and "has no discipline on his record," a union official said

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

This is especially bad news for Leila Cunningham who has been put forward as Reform UKโ€™s Mayoral Candidate (two and half years ahead of the election), and rather punctures her message that we Londoners must be โ€œpitied.โ€

Brilliant work by our current mayor, @london.gov.uk.

I don't understand her. Is she telling us we should be afraid of people like her? (I am actually, but because of her politics rather than her race or religion or skin colour)

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement.

These 2 lads are now safely with Dorset Hedgehog Rescue & will hopefully be returned to our garden in spring, fit & well once more. If you find a poorly hog, please take it to your nearest care facility, it's their best chance of survival ๐Ÿฆ”๐Ÿฆ”๐Ÿ’š #hedgehog

Beyond Our Means - Policy Exchange Download Publication Online Reader The UK faces a twin-pronged fiscal crisis. At about 100% of GDP, public debt is inordinately high and is set to rise a good deal further. Debt interest alone account...

Reading this, one proposal is to raise state pension age to 70, which is fine except our ageist society routinely forces people out of work in their 50s. Add to that most people can't afford to retire in their 50s and you potentially have a giant fucking crisis right there

Just wonderful: the thank you card that Jilly Cooper sent me after I reviewed Apassionata in the Dorset Echo back in 1997. Apparently it was a heavenly review and I'm a darling. RIP Jilly, you glorious woman

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow thatโ€™s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

On Yom Kippur many Jewish people in Britain have their phones off to mark the holy day.

As it ends at 723pm, some will hear the tragic Manchester news for the first time.

At that time, please join many of us to send a message of solidarity to British Jews.Thanks Together coalition for proposing.

Honestly think anyone considering coming to the US for future international sports events should really consider it carefully. These people do not give due process. They don't care about your ID. They grab you if they don't like the look of you and then there's no telling where you'll end up.

A Free Press, Not a Free Pass โ€“ It's Time for Fair Regulation For too long, the UK press have bullied people, harassed grieving families, and destroyed lives, all to sell papers. Weโ€™ve all seen the heartbreaking consequences. Theyโ€™ve hacked phones, listened to ...

Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...
