The amount of drama and suspense is mindblowing. This is real time video, no slow motion effects or anything of the sort.

I don't understand how can Ryanair get away with being this nasty all the time. I dont fly with this airlines as a matter of principle.
Ryanair expects me to take the financial hit for helping others
As a doctor I stepped in to tend to an elderly passenger … but it won’t waive £100 transfer fee to rebook

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

When Tory donor Frank Hester reportedly said Diane Abbott – the longest-serving Black MP – made him “want to hate all black women” and that she “should be shot”, Kemi Badenoch dismissed it as “trivia”. When Kneecap, made a similarly abhorrent past remark she wants them banned. #TwoTierKemi

The purposeful run when Daddy is spotted after he was missing from Music's line of sight for a full 30 seconds. The joy, the happiness, it was a sight to behold. 🥰😍

In pandering to the worst instincts of ignorant bigots Labour are losing far more than they stand to gain. The kind of numbskull who likes this regressive nonsense is still going to vote Reform. Meanwhile anyone with any sense is wondering where to go. It makes no sense 🤦🏽‍♀️

🧵Reform UK is trying to convince voters ahead of the local elections that it is now “professional”. Farage has condemned union members who, he said, were “telling kids that Reform is a racist party”.

So we looked into some of Reform's candidates and here's what we found 👇

I have no idea when it got clicked but it is my favourite of the lot and there are so many I took as Music was so very happy with good weather, picnic outdoors and whole pack doting on him.

Our analysis of over 70,000 NHS outsourcing contracts given out between 2012 and 2024 reveals that private firms made £6.7 billion in profits from NHS contracts over that period.

That means they made £10 million a week from NHS contracts.

Music categorically does not apply selective hearing.

He hangs on every word daddy says and tries to understand with the ever so trustworthy "tilt head mechanism". 🥰😍

He also has a genuinely impressive vocabulary but then am biased so there's that.
