RefUK, RW media, & Eurofash are plainly trying to whip up a panic about this. Any serious report must begin by explaining that Ceuta is in Africa - not mainland Spain - and 48k+ of the 50k crossers were already returned. It is frightening how many still don't know this. Please share on all socials.

"Spain's PM blames traffickers after 60,000 migrants reach Ceuta from Morocco 01:32 What triggered the mass migrant crossings into Ceuta? Sofia Ferreira Santos and Sarah Rainsford, Southern and Eastern Europe correspondent 31 July 2026 Spain's prime minister has blamed trafficking gangs after about 60,000 migrants crossed into the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta from Morocco. At least 57 people died during the surge, according to local media."Daily Mail and Daily Express from this weekend, with front page headlines "Ministers MUST stop the Spanish border invaders reaching UK" and "SPANISH BORDER CRISIS IS 'WAKE-UP CALL' FOR UK", respectively.

Well played UEFA - I really hope Infantino refused to back down, UEFA withdraw from FIFA, and are followed by the South American federation. We can start our own organisation and wipe out FIFA entirely.

A fabulous day at work (I know, I know - but you don't work on a boat in Cardigan Bay, pointing at dolphins for the delight of tourists!). I got some of my best photos to date and I'm hopeful of getting one of one of the new born calves tomorrow - missed them today.

Imagine this on a Ryanair flight from Luton to Dublin in peak stag party season after a traditional airport breakfast...

Evangelist Whitney Lynn says she preaches on planes because she loves “a captive audience.” She's not alone. It's becoming a trend. If spreading your message requires listeners who can't escape, maybe it's not as compelling as you think. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/christian-...

We all know this, but if you also still have a Twitter account ‘just to check on things’…you are funding this stuff. Dirty bastards.

“Last year, xAI released what it called Grok Imagine or ‘spicy mode’c with features that allowed Grok users to prompt it to create fake images that were more sexual in nature *** In less than two weeks, Grok had created millions of sexualized images, including more than 20,000 of children…” 2/

Lazy journalism. This woman crops up all the time. It really does the terribly low standards our journalists have sunk to.

Elaine in this article "can't remember the last time she used her oven" but also spends £200 a month on petrol (so driving probably ~50 miles a day?) (she's also a professional old person; she was on Good Morning Britain last year, and then also at the Nov budget, and the year before lmao)
