The Royal British Legion in Brackley, Northants has confirmed what happened with Prince Harry’s visit for Remembrance Sunday in the face of all the hate that has been aimed at him. They said: ‘As Chairman of Brackley Royal British Legion I wish to thank Prince Harry Duke of Sussex for attending our Remembrance Sunday Parade today. He made no formal announcement of attending, he didn’t request any special treatment. He quietly stood on Parade with his medals and paid respect.’ ‘I personally thanked him for attending, as I did to all veterans that attended. I personally set up the veterans toast, poured the port and handed it out. Even went round offering a refill. I feel sad the press that chose to post the photographs so quickly.’ ‘Your Royal Highness it is an honour you attended our Parade.’

Over 60 people came last night to our People's Emergency Briefing screening & discussion at Engine Room N17. Thanks Rev. Budd. Unanimous verdict - we need stronger UK action on climate!

Over 60 people came to our (third) FoE National Emergency Briefing screening at The Engine Room, Hale Village Tottenham tonight. Strong message to MPs - the govt must do its own emergency briefing on climate emergency! @DavidLammy

Former Asda driver here. That’s the ambient compartment and having it open is doing no harm. The freezer & chiller compartments are closed and are insulated. They will stay cold enough while they’re closed and the engine isn’t running. Don’t be a prick.
🚨Asda driver parks outside a house, opens the refrigerated van, then spends time on a prayer mat while the food sits there. If your delivery is late and warm, this is why.

Pls can we address the entire culture that allowed Russell Brand to get away with his lecherous behaviour, over and over again, even going so far as to write about his assaults of women in his books, reference them in his shows? Men like this still exist, hiding in plain sight

FOUR THURSDAYS LEFT 🎄   And if you don't know my story by now, have you been living under a branch?   Gifted to London by Norway every year since 1947, I'm more than just a Christmas tree. I'm a symbol of friendship and gratitude.   So now you know why I'm kind of a big deal 💅

These pictures of Reform councillor George David Madgwick posing alongside Nigel Farage, Robert Jenrick, Suella Braverman, Zia Yusuf and Laila Cunningham were taken after his arrest. He has now been charged with 35 offences, including rape and offences involving indecent images of children. The question is why he was still being paraded alongside the party's most senior figures after his arrest?

Tonight, the American people sent a clear message — they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face. These results were only possible because outstanding candidates stepped forward in every region of the country — including in areas once considered long shots. They came from different backgrounds and represented a range of political perspectives, but were united by shared values, a belief in public service, and a commitment to putting the people of their districts and states first. We also owe a debt of gratitude to the thousands of election officials and volunteers from both parties who helped ensure a smooth election and carried out one of the most essential functions of our democracy. While this administration has another two years in office, our job now is to roll up our sleeves, make changes wherever we have the power to do so, prevent further damage, and lay the groundwork for the future.

If you’re worried Oxford Street is crowded best to avoid New York
The Thriller music suddenly stopped mid-parade. Here’s what happened next. 🧟‍♂️ Right in the middle of the performance at the NYC Halloween Parade, the music cut out. Watch how the dancers and crowd reacted.

Can the FA just nip this shit in the bud right now and make it a lifetime, all-stadium ban if you wave a photo of Bradley Lowery at Sunderland fans to taunt them. It’s beyond sick and this isn’t the first time it’s happened either.
