Lucky, someone happened to install the hydrant at exactly the spot near the skateboard.

According to Reuters, there have been no bombings at all. Three Palestinians have been shot after approaching the withdrawn troops. That is awful, but at this time of delicate negotiations to preserve the peace, Hyperbole has no place in the conversation.

Shocking. That will hit us badly. And we're not that well off. In fact, in relative terms, we're below the poverty line.

#NUFC Big Nick at it again, and the Guardian doesn't spare the other team criticism for spending £116m on Wirz.

The entire UK mass media is full of stories about Israeli reunions after people spent 2 years as hostages. And that's wonderful.
But why so little mention of the more than 1,000 Palestinians and their reunions after years in jail FOR NO REASON, after NO CHARGES?

@tim-spector.bsky.social Tell me, "health expert". What does your "not from rubbish supermarkets" shop cost?

Too much, I am certain, for the huddled masses.

They probably don't earn in a week what you were paid for your smug, self-praising piece in the Telegraph. archive.ph/oeGXY

Sickening. While the #ceasefire is great news, are we all meant to give standing ovations to the men and women who brought Genocide to #Gaza. I THINK NOT!!!

Politicians assume that, because they are politicians:

1) We MUST listen to all they say;
2) They know better than any non-politician;
3) They have a right to respect and subservience.

They are wrong on all three.

Add your own.

I wonder how all this #Trump visit will stay "on schedule". Trump is unlikely to limit his narcissistic self-praise, so his speech could go on till next week. #r4today

Add to that with Foster's claim that Trump landed on the TARMAC when it is concrete.

"Fast-developing" = Snail's pace.
And Robinson describes engines set to idle as "roaring" and waiting for the steps to "come down," when in fact, they are rolled to the aircraft.
This may be a historic day, but NOT for the amateur commentary on #r4today

The BBC publicity photo resembles a poor mock-up of McCartney's Band on the Run album cover. #r4today
