The addled minds at Sky, who feel they can write such a misleading headline.
Give your heads a wobble, and perhaps get off the ACAB bandwagon.
Man dead and boy injured after being approached by police

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The headline implies the police killed or injured two. This is not the case according the body of the article.
Officers walked towards a moped on foot. They rode off and crashed. Despite first aid from the police, one died.

Do you know who apologises for things they never did?

As we have learned from the Chagos débâcle, ‘structured dialogues’ are a disaster for Britain. 1) The minute you’re in them, everyone thinks you’ve conceded the principle and are negotiating over the terms; 2) the Foreign Office seems incapable of negotiating Britain’s position because *they agree with the other side*; 3) once you’ve started then to stop makes you look like the bad guy and you lose all that valuable ‘soft power’.
While Burnham has ruled out paying lump sums towards reparations, he will offer to open structured dialogues and listen to calls for funding

Nicola Sturgeon can recount every detail of a conversation 10 years ago with Donald Trump, but apparently has “no knowledge or memory” of a £124k motorhome her ex husband bought with SNP money and parked at her mother-in-law’s for two years.

Today Labour MPs have:
- said employers aren’t workers so they can tax them more (Reynolds)
- refused to commit to the 3% defence spending target (Healey)
- said we should rejoin the EU after campaigning saying we shouldn’t (Reeves)
- opened the door to slavery reparations by talking up an official apology (Burnham)
Are their priorities your priorities?

The greatest consequence of social media is that people like you have had your influence reduced to dust.
You are the DVD player of modern media.
Utterly obsolete.

This may be the most damning statement ever uttered by a Labour minister. It's so revealing of the attitude of a government that thinks that employers are a class that don't work for their profits but somehow exploit others for them - rather than understanding the nature of small and medium-sized businesses and how bloody hard most employers work to create wealth and employment.

Have they considered letting people produce energy using the various industrial processes discovered over the last 200 years? Crazy idea, I know.
Europe’s energy ministers are running out of ideas to protect citizens from surging energy prices as winter approaches.

A Prime Minister furious with his own government, who doesn't think his own policies go far enough and wasnt impressed with his own budget certainly is doing things differently.
He's exercising a rather odd detachment, as if he's a political voyeur who has no say in outcomes.
Thick as mince.

Finally, I would like to issue a formal apology for the 100 Years War. I am especially sorry that it happened before I was born and was therefore unable to influence it in any way. You have no idea how formally sorry I am.

Ieri sera, profittando del viaggio presidenziale in Africa del presidente Nawrocki, il premier della sinistra europeista Tusk ha mandato la polizia a bloccare i lavori della corte costituzionale, impedendo al suo presidente, al vice e ad alcuni giudici di entrare nel palazzo. Il presidente della Repubblica ha fatto invertire la rotta al suo aereo, è tornato a Varsavia e si è diretto con la sua scorta al palazzo della Corte dove ha dovuto aprirsi fisicamente la strada a gomitate tra gli agenti di polizia mentre la folla lo acclamava. Una volta giunto ai cancelli ha ordinato la loro apertura, consentendo al vicepresidente della Corte di entrare nel palazzo.
Ora Tusk batte in ritirata raccontando di aver chiesto l'intervento della polizia per proteggere i giudici.
Il presidente della Repubblica ha convocato per oggi consultazioni urgenti con tutte le forze politiche.
Una breve spiegazione per coloro che non hanno conoscenze di politica polacca:
Un anno fa, il popolo polacco ha eletto un presidente della Repubblica conservatore, Karol Nawrocki.
La Polonia ha attualmente il governo Tusk di sinistra-liberal-woke-europeista che vuole frontiere aperte e altre stupidaggini europee ma che non controlla ancora la corte costituzionale.
Il governo Tusk sta tentando di prendere illegalmente il controllo dei giudici al fine di minare l'elezione del presidente Nawrocki.
Solo in questo modo l'europeista Tusk può assicurarsi il potere assoluto per sé. Tusk sa che perderà le elezioni del 2027, quindi sta tentando di minare l'ordine costituzionale dello stato e di rimuovere un presidente amato dal popolo polacco.
Preghiamo per la Polonia e il presidente Nawrocki.
PS. non credo che sentirete questa notizia. Facciamo girare.
PPS. immaginate se una cosa del genere la facesse la premier Meloni....
