Wow. Amid horrific news of a shooting at Bondi Beach, this looks like a truly astonishing act of courage.
Video, I believe recorded off of local TV, of a bystander disarming one of the two killers.

Nigel Farage is probably delighted today that Reform have the most members of a political party.

It doesn't have to be this way.

180,000 and rising. Hope ready to overtake hate.

Stand and be counted.

I could see what the purple theme was but I’d like to point out that one of the words doesn’t fit, strictly speaking. I don’t have a clue regarding the theme of blue.

Ringing endorsements, I’d say 🙂
Farage thinks I'm a maniac?

Starmer thinks the Greens are nuts?

Why is the sale of peat still a thing? It's pretty much the stupidest thing you can do in a climate crisis, second only to the sale of fossil fuels.
If you care at all about wildlife please sign and share this petition to end peat-based compost sales in the UK. actnow.peatfreepartnership.org.uk/end-peat-sal... Lowland raised bogs are one of the rarest habitat types in the UK, peat is not needed for growing.
Sign the petition to end peat sales!
No more delays: Let's get peat out of gardens once and for all. The time for uncertainty has ended.
