A strong implication here that this horrific murder was committed by a migrant, and plenty of responses running with that narrative. Meanwhile the victim's white, middle class husband has been arrested. The problem is, and has always been, men.
A GP. A mother of three. Dead in her own home in Dersingham, a mile from Sandringham, while she was hosting a sleepover for her children’s friends. Police called at 2.20am. Children taken out of the house to safety. A man in his 40s arrested on suspicion of murder. She had left a previous practice to spend more time with her young family. Neighbours say she was a lovely woman. They also say this is the sort of village where you can leave the car unlocked all night and nothing happens. That Britain is gone. Not in a city centre at closing time. In a detached house backing onto the King’s estate, during a kids’ sleepover. If a family doctor is not safe in her own home in a “crime-free” Norfolk village, stop telling people the danger is somewhere else. The suspect has not been named. The investigation is at the start. None of that changes what those children were in the house for. Rest in peace, Dr Hannah Terry.
Community note
She wasn't safe in her own home as the person accused and charged with her murder is her husband. That happens across the country, whether it be quiet villages or city centres. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I must confess that when I was younger I expected the future to have more robot butlers and jetpacks, and less proto fascism and plague, but life is full of surprises.

*sigh* Labour are not cutting your pension. Both Reform and the Tories simply lying to the public about this. Depressing.
Labour will cut your pension. Reform UK will protect it.

Repeat after me: reforming the triple lock does not cut anyone’s pension. It reduces the rate at which it will rise. (In an entirely reasonable fashion.)

Someone who knows what they’re talking about gives his expert opinion on the RAF Fairford suspects’ bail. Would be nice to think that Nigel, Robert, Richard etc might read it and reflect …
1/ While I get why people are confused by the bail decision in this case, such a course is not taken lightly, and it tells me as criminal law person not that the police are doing something wrong, but they are acting properly and lawfully now and avoiding a judicial review later.

Again. These sort of statements further underline why Reform are not a serious party of government.
When I revealed terrorists were using the small boats to enter the UK, the Home Office - with the support of Yvette Cooper - threatened me. They sought to cover up a national security emergency. We may now be seeing the consequences of their unforgivable complacency.

The rest of the G20 should boycott anything attended by this war criminal. Responsible for over 1m deaths in Ukraine.
BREAKING!! Rubio says the U.S. has invited Putin to the G20 summit in Miami this December. “We think it’s an opportunity for him to engage not just with the president, but with other world leaders”

In defence of Hannah Spencer MP 1) Benny’s been to Parliament before! 2) I Chaired this Scout Exec for 15 yrs 3) All 3 of my kids & now my grandson goes to this Group; he’s in Beavers & met Hannah when she came 4) When I was MP I also visited uniformed orgs. It’s part of the job
I love kids. I love stuffed animals. But she is an MP!!! If she were a nursery nurse, this would make sense. How are these our politicians?! These are our leaders!! 🫪🤯

This 👇 is the problem with modern politics. For goodness sake, Thatcher’s government (!) appointed a trade unionist to the Bank of England because there’s been one in the board of directors since 1946! Stop treating people so dishonestly.
Only one party has ever rescued the country from trade union control. We’re ready to do so again. If you weren’t sure what kind of Labour government we have, or want to know what’s in store for you and your family finances, the news below is a big clue and it’s not good news 👇

Wouldn’t it be easier if @TiceRichard and all those others displaying outrage over Novak’s appointment just admitted “OK, I didn’t realise the unions always hold a position at the BoE”.

Last March, I announced a total ban on donations from crypto trading because we can’t tell if the money originates from hostile states, and a ban on donors not resident in the UK until they’ve been back a year. Reform have questions to answer. politicshome.com/news/articl…

The hideous Braverman is now on a campaign against the brave @RNLI, even telling ports not to let them land. Volunteers and staff now being targeted and tyres slashed. Here she was as Home Secretary, next to an equally shabby charlatan. Reform are appalling. Please donate to RNLI
