“I loved meeting the women in Bradford who had started an allotment.
Some of them were finding some days a bit difficult because of their religion, meaning they can’t always do certain things and they don’t want to offend their faith, and so they came up with this this lovely little outdoor thing.”

Angela Merkel admits it 'rankles' that UK, US, Israel vaccinating faster but insists nothing went wrong with EU procurement. More money wouldn't have equalled more vaccine, EU didn't seek faster emergency approval like UK because wanted citizens to trust vaccines

I’ve been told the MEPs present were supportive of the slower EU approach to approving vaccines for use a) on safety grounds and b) I understand, as a means of avoiding vaccine competition between individual EU countries /3

Not BBC, but just been reading an article from the RFI. Following the cigar shaped asteroid thing that entered our solar system.
The RFI is a French news and current affairs public radio station.
Avi Loeb, the director of Harvard’s astronomy department, says the “ Peculiar interstellar space visitor was ‘probably an alien vessel”
If I’m right, this is the greatest discovery in the history of mankind,” Loeb says.
“There are thousands of billions of galaxies like our Milky Way in the visible universe. There are more planets and solar systems like ours in the universe than there are “snowflakes on our Earth”
Snowflake as a politicized insult is typically used by those on the political right to insult those on the political left. In an article from the Los Angeles Times, Jessica Roy says the alt-right in the United States pejoratively describes most liberals and those protesting against Donald Trump as “snowflakes”.
I have never seen Mark Easton as animated and happy looking as he was speaking about Sir Tom Moore. Being charitable, maybe he was thinking he was celebrating Sir Tom’s life but it did come over as rather inappropriate.
Investigators are struggling to build a federal murder case regarding fallen US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, vexed by a lack of evidence that could prove someone caused his death as he defended the Capitol during last month's insurrection https://t.co/MBjNOLPrVm
There were literally hundreds of cameras on site and tens of cameras rolling during the argy-bargy.
If there was footage / witnesses / evidence I feel that three weeks later we’d have some stills and statements. There were also some known lefty agitators attending… The MAGA crowd have been involved in some fisticuffs and on occasion gunplay – but usually as a reaction to a baying crowd of AntiFa – throwing Molotovs and smashing stuff up has been up to now the almost exclusive domain of the lefties. It’d be awkward if a MAGA hat wearing AntiFa goon with previous lobbed the extinguisher? – conjecture, sure – but given the number of cameras rolling … it is suspicious imho.
The Dems are desperate to maintain the crisis as repeating the “out of control” narrative legitimises them rushing policies through without scrutiny or debate.
The nervousness of the Democrats is plain weird for a party with the Senate, Congress + POTUS – now Beelzebub is almost vanquished they are having to look at their policies … and pay back all the donors etc… they need a demon – if DJT doesn’t oblige – expect some group of furriners to cop some crap.
The other element this monster left out was his assumption that the UK will fail outside the EU – they needed us more than we needed them and we can adapt to change if needed .
At a time when people are dying for him to come out with stuff like that really is obscene …
I knew that wouldn’t take long. We are now all expected to make a noise for Sir Tom this Friday, like good little citizens. What on earth happened to a quiet appreciation of the man’s efforts? BBC will be cheerleading of course. Mass manipulation of emotions is a very dangerous path to tread…..
These tensions “within the local community” are flagged up by the Sinn Fein Councillor and Group Party Leader on the council, James McKeown. The SDLP Councillor Eugene Reid gives his opinion on the matter and again mentions “raised tensions”.
Neither of these men are from Larne, nor do they represent voters from Larne. Both men are from Nationalist parties who want a United Ireland, both are pro-EU and anti-Brexit and one is an IRA supporter. The Sinn Fein representative is the “group party leader” of a group of 2 within the council, the SDLP Councillor is his party’s sole representative.
Mid and East Antrim Council has 40 Councillors, Larne itself has 5 elected representatives, 3 of whom are Unionists.The people of Larne elected no Nationalist Councillors.
Of those 40, 29 are Unionist, including 2 Independents who I know personally. The rest who are not Nationalist are Alliance Party members. It’s difficult to work out where their loyalties lie although they are pro-EU.
There are 3 Anti-Brexit Irish Nationalist Councillors in total on the council, one of whom represents an area 30 miles from Larne, another 20 miles inland. The BBC asked 2 of them for their opinion on what appeared to be an issue from within the Pro-Brexit Unionist community in a staunchly Loyalist area which voted as a constituency for Brexit in the Referendum, a community they live with but not in.
They were as usual more than happy to give it, however They do not truly represent or speak for the majority of people in Larne. They most definitely do not understand or empathise in any way with this local Protestant, British community. They actually in fact know about as much about the Ulster Unionist mindset as my arse does about snipe shooting. And yet, the bBbc seek them out, give them their say, present their views, their agendas, as legitimate and accepted.
The bBbc pull crap like this in nearly every article that they produce on Northern Ireland and if they do it here I can guarantee that it happens in every article about every other part of the United Kingdom on every single day.

The policy changed because Trump made it a criminal offence – and children were not allowed to stay in a jail for adults. But they key point here is that they were also split under Obama – but these orders are just to reunite those split under the criminal offence. It’s a deliberate attempt to make you think it was all Trump’s fault.
And conveniently enough there is no information available for how many Obama split.

Pugs,
Agree wholeheartedly with what you say, I’ll just add this as an aside.
Larne is in my council area, Mid and East Antrim, and although it’s not my hometown, which is larger, I have connections to it.
The bBbc are happy to highlight “simmering tensions” in the area in their article.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-55895276
These tensions “within the local community” are flagged up by the Sinn Fein Councillor and Group Party Leader on the council, James McKeown. The SDLP Councillor Eugene Reid gives his opinion on the matter and again mentions “raised tensions”.
Neither of these men are from Larne, nor do they represent voters from Larne.
