London now has its first fully electric cross-river ferry.
The Orbit Clipper is faster, greener and can carry up to 100 bikes. It means cleaner and faster trips between North and South London - a big win for a more connected city.

"London had around 104 homicides last year. Let’s put that number into context – New Orleans had 124 homicides last year. That might make London look just a little bit safer than New Orleans, but here’s the thing – more than nine million people live in London, but only 360,000 live in New Orleans."

Will there be any *political* accountability for this costly mess? Nope, thought not. If you're hoping to see or hear Rishi Sunak MP - the man in charge of the Treasury at the time - being interrogated about it on the Beeb and other broadcast outlets today or tomorrow, I have a bridge to sell you.

If there is anyone out there in spitting distance of Trump, please tell him he is a disgraceful failure. How dare he speak about our politics, our London Mayor. Mr Khan has more worth in a strand of hair than Trump has in all his tart's parlour gold. What a waste of time Trump is.

A Navy warship mistook US fighter jets for enemy missiles and opened fire. The targeted pilot saw his life flash before his eyes.
New documents reveal how the USS Gettysburg shot down an F/A-18 and nearly hit a second one above the Red Sea last year.

Trump's ballroom will not survive the Presidency of anyone with good taste. That person will also remove the tart's parlour 'gold'.
Trump divided the country, extorted Zelenskyy, tried to steal an election, incited an insurrection, stole confidential documents and banged a porn star. That’s his legacy. He knows he’s incapable of achieving anything good. He’s hoping his ballroom will remind people of him.

They were stopped by soldiers of the 3rd BOP Svoboda and RPTRK of the 93rd OMR together with adjacent units.
They hit a BMP-3, a tank and another ABM.

"The BBC started it...they invaded Poland!"
Nigel Farage has gone to war with the BBC after a radio presenter suggested he had “a relationship when he was younger with Hitler,” vowing he would not speak to the national broadcaster until it apologized for its own past “racist” content.
