⚠️ WARNING: GRAPHIC FOOTAGE On October 7th, Hamas terrorists murdered hundreds of innocent partygoers at the Nova festival. For those at the Glastonbury festival who need a reality check, let this footage serve as a reminder to what you are supporting.
🛑 I don’t believe in jailing people for saying stupid things. But clearly if “rules are rules” and young white mothers with no following get banged up for 31 months for a single deleted tweet, then the ridiculous Mr “Vylan” must also go down
Tomorrow will be the 81st anniversary of D-Day. I took a moment during my lunch today to reflect on the experiences of those who served. I tried to imagine parachuting from the sky, crossing the Channel to the shores of Normandy in a landing craft, or facing the perils of war…

During World War 2, nearly a third of the British army were from the Indian subcontinent. They made up the largest volunteer army ever in history. But we still rarely remember these Sikhs, Muslims & Hindus. This VE Day we must remain firm in our pursuit of the truth. #VEDay80
In LDN today for a staff conference and thought rude not to pay my respects here. Not happy at the barriers though 😐
45 years ago on 5th May, 1980, the fine men from the SAS ended the siege at the Iranian Embassy in London. Great work chaps. Heroes and legends 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👏👏👏
