Is this actually correct?! Think about what this money could do for SEND provision or education as a whole.

Hey British media, It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning. Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

Labour must take responsibility for a battering caused by legitimising far right Reform rhetoric and culture war bullshit. They have the majority to stop it, they need to find their balls, fast. If they carry on they’re not just bending themselves over the barrel, but all of us.

Labour lost votes to the Greens, Lib Dems and abstentions, NOT to Reform. For Gods sake Labour, give us progressives a reason to get out and vote for you, stop courting the right-wing.

Oh. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

600!

Saw a post suggesting that elder millennials are the only generation not to be politically manipulated because we don't read newspapers or watch TikTok videos.

If Amnesty are saying it, if athe Red Cross are saying it, shouldn't we be listening? These fundamental organisations are being undermined by our government's response.

Nigel Farage is a political fraud ‘cosplaying’ as working-class champion, TUC chief says www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If you find yourself at the very back of the London Marathon, why not cheer yourself up by pretending you are absolutely terrifying and everyone in front is actually fleeing from you?

Israel’s battering of Gaza is medieval in its savagery and barbaric violence but with the most modern and advanced weaponry in the world

“After losing her husband and daughter, Najwa Ishaq is struggling to keep her sons alive in Gaza as bombs fall on Khan Younis”

Nigel Farage has said Reform UK will have a Minister for Deportations. He added that they would also have a Minister for Dog Whistling, a Secretary of State For Shit Stirring and a Department of Complete Bollocks.

I do find it hilarious that I have literally spent my entire teenage/adult life fighting against greasy skin and now it's actually fashionable.

Gaza: WFP runs out of food aid after seven-week Israeli blockade

Five-year-old Palestinian boy Osama Al-Raqab is battling malnutrition as the Israeli blockade continues to block vital supplies from entering the Gaza Strip for over six weeks.

How are we letting this go on? This has to be collective punishment of 1 million children. What is wrong with humanity?

"Israel has now fully blocked the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza for over fifty days." And still some people defend the Israel government.

Trying to work out who's autistic in my family. There's quite a list. My MIL: 'I like to plan what's going to happen, once I get that in my head then that's what I think is happening regardless...'

No one has had any money (except some boomers) since 2008. I count myself lucky that, as an elder-millenial, I managed to get some working years in before that.

Why is my discover feed just showing me videos of people's pets?

If RFK wants to know what the cause of autism is, then I can tell him! A mummy and a daddy do a special cuddle, at least one of them (if not both due to double empathy) is probably autistic....

In the 'safe' zone. BBC News - Israeli strikes kill Palestinians in tented area for displaced in Gaza www.bbc.com/news/article...

Autopsies of rescue workers killed in Gaza show ‘gunshots to head and torso’

No aid has entered the Gaza Strip since March 2 due to Israel's blockade, risking a surge in malnutrition, disease and other preventable conditions among the enclave's Palestinians, says the territory's Health Ministry. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/7qs7pz

The Palestine Red Crescent Society says it has been informed by the Red Cross that Assad Al-Nsasrah, its medic who has been missing since an Israeli attack on Rafah last month that killed 15 aid workers, is being held by Israel. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/6932w5

BREAKING: Killing hundreds of thousands in Gaza doesn't count as terrorism, but dying the pond of the US embassy red definitely does count as terrorism. Just so we're clear x

Red Cross chief says Gaza is 'hell on earth' as Israeli assault continues

Why would you move your manufacturing to America when next week the tariffs might half, or disappear, or double, or grow wings and fly, or be turned into a goblin, or become an emotion, or

The Tories really need to get rid of her. She doesn't even hold traditional conservative values.

Everyone should read this, especially for the bits in the article that give us some insight into what these detention prisons used by ICE are like. And no one, no one, should be traveling to the US if they can avoid it. No one. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

New Gaza medic attack video contradicts Israel military claims www.channel4.com/news/new-gaz...

Basically trapping 2 million people in an open air prison and starving them to death. News - Gaza bakeries shut and painkillers on ration after month of Israeli blockade www.bbc.com/news/article...

Eight days ago, Israeli forces killed 15 paramedics in Gaza "one by one" and buried them in a mass grave. 1,060 healthcare workers have been killed in the past 18 months. These are war crimes. How many more must occur for our government to end arms sales and sanction Israel?

Funded by the US taxpayer.

The Local Authority Head of SEND is accusing my son's headteacher of lying. Hmmm, I wonder who I should believe....#SENDCRISIS

“There is this terrible misconception that disabled people just take, but actually by taking from us, you prevent us from being able to give – we want to be able to participate in life equally the same as anyone else, and that includes going to work.” Disability campaigner Tanni Gray-Thompson

Today in 180AD Commodus succeeded his father, Marcus Aurlieus as Roman Emperor. He would go berserk, naming the city, months & legions after himself. One contemporary wrote that he turned Rome "from a kingdom of gold to one of iron and rust".
