On holiday with my 15 year-old daughter and lost my temper with a 20 something year-old lad in a bar last night. He was sitting with us when I noticed my daughter looking uncomfortable. He had his hand up her dress on her leg! I didn't hit him, but he left quickly under verbal assault. She's okay 😠.

I was never a "Gamer", but I am now due to circumstance. Today I played an online game called 'Dayz'. I've played for a while on my own. I met a novice player online today. He asked to team-up.... reluctantly, I did. We met another experienced player. We had a blast! I just wanted to share this.
STOP CALLING HIM PRESIDENT. HE IS A TERRORIST. THIS IS NOT POLITICS. WE HAVE NO GOVERNMENT. THIS IS TERRORISM.

Saturday Morning: Take a moment to listen about the Trump family corruption taking place in the face of all Americans, and the Speaker of the House pretending it doesn't matter...🗽
I have questions… Why is the U.S. Treasury secretary doing media rounds about Trump’s war in the first place, then suddenly getting summoned into the Situation Room? Clearly, Scott Bessent comes back looking shook. If the war strategy is so solid, why yank him out of a live interview?

Wow 👀 🤬 Former Sniper reviews ICE shooting and uncovers what ACTUALLY happened
They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots
“It’s like half of y’all ain’t never seen Star Wars or a Disney movie. How do you not know which side to root on?”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
"Sorry to interrupt the meeting but could someone ask the guy in the grey suit and black tie, who's been staring a bit too intently at me for like five minutes, to stop leaning on the rail, as my fingers are trapped in it and it really hurts....erm, thanks...that's all."
Let's define socialism as people helping people .... don't let republicans define socialism as something evil.
If NHS trusts hadn’t had to pay more than £1.8 billion in *interest charges* to private companies, that money could have paid for the starting salaries of over 50,000 NHS doctors 😮🚨
I don't know who to credit this image to, but anyway, they got the price wrong. That 2/9d should read £122 million
The Manchester Carriage Company was founded by John Greenwood, who started the UK's first bus service - between Pendleton and Manchester - in 1824, five years before London's first bus service (Museum of Transport Greater Manchester.)
Zack Polanksi, "Nigel Farage claims to be a patriot but I don't think there is anything patriotic about Reform UK" "A patriot loves their country, their neighbours, no matter what the colour of their skin or what country they might have come from"
I’m actually way more than just a little suspicious. I know what he’s doing and I bet you do too.
🚨Small boat migrants getting “private health care” while the rest of us have to use the NHS?!🚨 That’s outrageous! Or is it? Might the reality be a little more mundane and a little less clickbait-worthy? Let’s take a 👀 1/17 🧵
Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.
