If only bananas had robust, natural, bio-degradable packaging of their own. Some sort of peelable skin, perhaps.
Soviet Union hurling every available body against invaders; Germans report that some surrendering Red Army units contain young children:
This journo did not miss. I was reminded of the phrase “more of a statement than a question”
Spoke to the Foreign Secretary this morning about the situation in Gaza - here's a brief clip...
Shocking statement about how the journalists the world has been relying on for images and reports about what’s going on in Gaza are slowly dying of starvation @AFP 🧵
Intriguing juxtaposition of social and political street art in Derry, to be fair.
This isn’t the first person to get hurt at a bonfire & it won’t be the last. We need regulations in place for bonfires for many reasons, not least of all people’s health. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-…
Coffee Shop owner in Limerick calls out other coffee shops who declare bankruptcy, leaving suppliers and employees owed money, and then go off and start up another business. And now the @RAI_ie is getting a taxpayer bailout. Will the RAI pass on the VAT cut? Will they fuck.
A responsible media would be going through the new hospitality outlets opening in 2025 and noting which involved people who'd closed in the previous 2/3 years and what was owed to taxpayers.
Remarkable advice. Do not put your child in light blue swimwear. 👇🏾
This is horrible, but I wanna understand what the scale of this is. My timeline is now full of "you should get yourself off organ donor lists". I don't believe doctors harvest organs from patients who'd otherwise live at a rate that exceeds 1 in a million.
Feminist? That might be moot but she seems full of white, western middleclass complacency. Think she’s popular on TikTok so I’m not sure if this is straight or ironic. 🤷🏿♂️
Sort of loving this girl's feminist take for fossil fuels
Using a recognised code word, in a call to a Belfast newsroom, the West Belfast Luddite Society claimed responsibility. “This demonstrates our ability to be stupid when and where choose.”
A fire at a 5G mast in west Belfast on Monday night is being treated as deliberate, the PSNI has said. bbc.in/4nXcvf3
This is 5G-geddon!
“This is an LED Streetlight - let’s see what’s inside” “This is a 5G Celluar Tower disguised as a Water Tower” At the start of Covid EVERY Country rapidly erected thousands of upon thousands of 5G Masts - of course this wasn’t broadcast - they just appeared & guess what - they…
Oh my God, you total jackasses. EVERY country had a notable drop in life expectancy circa 2020. And you know why: COVID. Maybe you don't know that the USA had a WORSE drop in life expectancy, and started from a lower base to begin with!
Canada had a notable drop in life expectancy since 2020: "Being on the side of reality and facts is so against the narrative... they're willing to ignore an increase in all-cause mortality."
The Universal Credit Bill has passed. The Motion of Regret did not. I am heartbroken. We got powerful truths spoken in the Lords which may help later in legal and public fights. But.... What is this thing called Labour. Not something I morally recognise Love to all x
This occurred at the Five Lamps. Ironically, every weekend, hundreds of far-right protesters march, causing traffic while claiming to seek safety. They know local thugs are the issue but deflect blame on migrants.
Mass starvation expert Alex de Waal warns that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is the “most intense, most severe,” and “minutely engineered” act of deliberate starvation since World War II:
