In a world where fewer and fewer people concern themselves with the plight of others, the loss of Rob Reiner, who cared deeply about humanitarian causes, feels that much more devastating. RIP: 1947-1925.

Incredibly brave man.

Next time a maniac commits some atrocity, remember that for every Islamic terrorist there are millions of peaceful Muslims just living a peaceful life.

Or, like this wonderful guy, risking everything to save strangers of a different religion.
7News Australia reports that the hero who jumped and disarmed one of the terrorist shooters

His name is Ahmed el-Ahmed

A 43 year old married father of two

He owns a fruit shop in Sutherland

No experience with guns

He was walking past

He has two bullets in his arm

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Some of the best movies ever made were by Rob Reiner. They made us laugh and think: The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men. And he was a force on screen as well in All in the Family and so many films.

What a tragic loss. Words fail with news like this.

Having the US dictate terms as Ukraine negotiates with Russia is the equivalent of having a cop tell a mugging victim they must negotiate the contents of their purse with the mugger.
“Zelensky survived a dozen Russian assassination attempts including a special forces assault on his presidential complex.He stood up to Trump. I’m sure he’ll be deeply impressed to learn our Congressional Republicans live as terrified hostages of their own party leader.”

Thatchersim — still the basis of so much of our economy — worked by making us buy things we already owned, using money we borrowed from our grandkids, and then cancelling the maintenance and calling it "savings".

And now everything is broken.

Just because it's reached the 100,000 threshold, doesn't mean anything will happen.

So keep signing and sharing, because we need to show MPs that there's a huge demand.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

On Nigel Farage’s speech today, TUC General Secretary Paul Nowak said:

“The cat is well and truly out of the bag - Reform is the party of austerity...Farage wants to finish what the Tories started.

“After 14 years of cuts that gutted our schools, hospitals and councils, he’d slash even deeper."

In campaigning for the UK to quit the ECHR, Farage is continuing his collaboration in Putin's war against democracy, human rights and international law

The only European countries outside the ECHR are Russia and Belarus.

Farage is a traitor, serving a hostile foreign power.
