CCTV shows the moment a car hits a Muslim woman in broad daylight in southeast London before the driver speeds away.
The woman survived, and an investigation is ongoing, but no suspects have been arrested yet.
I signed this letter. A lot of harm has been caused by ideological approaches to birth.
“We are a democratic party and our policies are determined by our members.” is a pretty terrible way to approach health policies.

ICE detained a 9-year-old with severe autism and his mom for more than 80 days.
The boy depends on daily therapy, but at Dilley, those supports vanished.
Unable to understand why they couldn’t go home, he would cry through the night and hit himself, his mother told me.

Okay, okay, going to keep adding these as I see them.
This one made me snort.
Though slightly annoying, also really quite funny that I'm reading about the efficiency of global supply chains and all was fine until the driver of the last leg delivered the package to the wrong address.
Never believe the national self-sufficiency myths.
On the academy pay front, it is interesting that the Aspirations trust is £500k in the red, when the husband and wife at its head between them in recent years have been paid approaching £500k, with that barrier now broken. schoolsweek.co.uk/academy-trus...

An article “More than one million foreign nationals are receiving benefits” (March 17, 2025) referred to the number of “foreign nationals” receiving benefits, and gave the rate of benefit claims for various nationalities. In fact, the particular DWP data on which the article was based recorded the nationality of claimants when registering for a National Insurance number, rather than the nationality at the time they were claiming benefits, so that some claimants might have since acquired UK citizenship, and would not be foreign nationals at the time they were claiming benefits. This correction has been published following an upheld ruling by the Independent Press Standards Organisation. Advertisement
Fully *one year later*, the Telegraph has been forced (by @ipso.co.uk) to admit that it was lying about foreign nationals claiming benefits.
Private Eye response to the media's faux outrage about Mandelson's appointment as our Ambassador to the US
A fellow poster just responded to a plea from James O'Brien with this little gem, the media's faux outrage, pearl clutching in all its glory.
They estimate Boris Johnson’s decisions throughout Covid resulted in 22,000+ unnecessary deaths.
Throughout his time the media had a love in with him.
Starmer appointed Mandleson. For right reasons. But it was wrong. He’s apologised.
Media hysterically demand he resign
On balance, I think you showed more dignity when you fell off those paddleboards.
The image presents a report indicating significant media bias against Muslims in the UK, highlighting negative portrayals and specific outlets.
We have a real problem in this country with how the press portrays and writes about Muslims.
This story is just another example of that.
It will be no surprise if you follow my work that the Telegraph and Daily Mail are two of the worst offenders🙄

Back in 2014-2015 we did a national crowd sourced project where people who experience mental ill-health, distress and trauma submitted a blog about their day and wellbeinv on four named days across the year. Sleep was far and away the thing people mentioned most positively and negatively
Dear everyone,
As per the post from the Bodleian librarian below, AI bots and scrapers are putting just about every website under great pressure, British History Online included.
A lot of excellent tech staff are working hard to keep everything working, but outages and siruptions are inevitable.
I wonder, do you mean Minadex? I loved it.
And it is done. Who your dad is no longer gives you a guaranteed say on the law of the land. We have tonight done what so many Labour people have sought to do throughout our history: no more hereditary peers
The President of the USA is now openly threatening Iran with being the target of one of the greatest crimes in world history. Trump is saying he will destroy the basis of life for more than 90 million people.
He should be removed from office for this.

A thing that’s shocking me about the lack of coverage is air safety info. Hi, Glasgow folk, from a Southern Californian transplant: ash from old buildings is super gnarly. Please wear a respirator if you need to be near the scene.
Queen Street is still available, but it goes different places!

The far right are working themselves up into a jihadist frenzy because our elected representatives have decided that it would be unwise to join an illegal imperialist war prompted by a demented president with serious cognitive impairment.
Thank goodness for Sir Keir.
Trevor Phillips after his interview with Yvette Cooper seems to have been forced to correct his comment about Blair criticising Keir Starmer.
He said that Blair had made the comments in private and not for publication and that they have been taken out of context.
Interesting
Going to be on BBC South radio at 13:10 discussing why time seems to go by more quickly as we age.
Here's an article I wrote on the subject in case you're interested.
This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.
Cashing in on the worst public health crisis in a century should disbar people from public life permanently.
