How low can some people go. Can you help? Lead Theft at St Peter's Church, Staines, Middlesex We are saddened to share that St Peter's Church has recently been targeted by thieves who have stripped lead from part of our church roof on the west porch river entrance, leaving the building exposed to the elements and causing significant damage. Whilst churches may not be places that everyone regularly visits, they remain an important part of the community. For 132 years, St Peter's has been here for people in times of joy, sadness, celebration, and need. Our building is used not only for worship but also as a place of support, friendship, and community activity for people from all backgrounds. Like many churches, we rely heavily on the generosity of our congregation and local supporters to keep our historic building open and maintained. The cost of repairing damage caused by lead theft places an additional burden on already stretched finances and ultimately takes resources away from serving the community. We would like to make local residents, businesses, and owners of historic buildings aware that those responsible may still be operating in the area. If you have noticed any suspicious activity around churches, schools, community buildings, or construction sites, please report it to the police. We are incredibly grateful for the messages of support we have already received. At a time when many individuals and organisations are facing financial challenges, any help, support, or sharing of this message would be greatly appreciated. If you can support in any way possible, please contact the office or message here. Despite this setback, St Peter's remains open and committed to serving our community. Thank you for standing with us. God Bless @churchofengland

Now would be a good time to remind everyone of these Trump facts, because apparently some people still need the refresher. Please meet the President of the United States: Flew on Epstein’s plane at least seven times. Just friends, I guess. Pleaded the Fifth more than 400 times in a single deposition. Nothing says “innocent” like refusing to answer a single question about your own business. 34 felony convictions. A record most people would call disqualifying. And 91 criminal charges. Accused of sexual misconduct or assault by at least 26 women. But sure, tell me again how he’s a great guy. 6 corporate bankruptcies. The self proclaimed greatest businessman alive somehow keeps running out of money. 5 draft deferments. Funny how the toughest guy in the room never actually showed up for duty. He said "not for me" when asked to defend his country. 4 criminal indictments. Not two. Not three. Four . 2 impeachments. A club of exactly one president. 2 of his own companies convicted of criminal tax fraud. Convicted. Not accused. Convicted. 1 fake university shut down. 1 fake charity shut down. Even his charity was a grift. Paid 25 million dollars to settle the Trump University fraud lawsuit because scamming people who believed in you costs money eventually. Ordered to pay 5 million dollars in the first E Jean Carroll sexual abuse verdict, then hit with 83.3 million more in the second. A jury said it twice so nobody could pretend it was a fluke. Ordered to pay 2 million dollars for looting his own so called charity. Stealing from a charity with his own name on it. Found liable for business fraud and originally slapped with a penalty topping 450 million dollars, later thrown out on appeal while the fraud finding itself stuck to him anyway. First president in modern history to increase the deficit every single year of a full term. Fiscal responsibility, apparently, was always just a talking point. HE PERSONALLY OWNS 30% OF THE NATIONAL DEBT. Kept the debt to GDP ratio above 100 percent for his entire first term. Presided over the largest single day point drop in Dow Jones history at the time. So much for the guy who claimed to be a genius with money. Set the record for the longest government shutdown in US history in his first term at 35 days, then couldn’t resist beating his own miserable record in his second term with a 43 day shutdown, followed by yet another shutdown just months later. Encore nobody asked for. ONLY PRESIDENT WITH THREE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS. Added roughly 2.25 trillion dollars to the national debt in his first year back in office alone, pushing the debt past 39 trillion dollars. Somebody remind me who the party of fiscal discipline is again. Pushed through the largest defense budget increase since World War Two while the debt kept climbing anyway. Purged more than 300,000 federal employees in his first year back. Efficient, if your goal is chaos. Pardoned nearly 1,600 January 6 Capitol rioters on his very first day back in office, including Oath Keepers and Proud Boys leaders convicted of seditious conspiracy. Law and order, except when it’s inconvenient. At least 400 of those pardoned rioters have already been rearrested, charged, or sentenced for new crimes since walking free. Shocking absolutely nobody. His family’s crypto ventures, including a meme coin and World Liberty Financial, pulled in more than 1.4 billion dollars in disclosed earnings while he sat in the Oval Office. Draining the swamp was apparently code for filling his own pockets. Sent the National Guard into American cities at a cost of nearly 500 million taxpayer dollars in 2025 alone. Then bragged about lower crime rates in said states. His own tariffs are projected to cost the average American household more than 2,500 dollars this year. You’re paying for this. Not China. You. No more foreign wars. Peace deal with Russia and Ukraine on Day One. Now sitting at one of the lowest approval ratings of his second term, stuck in the high 30s while inflation and gas prices make everyday life harder. None of this is a conspiracy theory, a rumor, or something you saw in a group chat. It is the actual, documented record, sitting in plain sight for anyone willing to look. So the next time someone tells you to relax and give him a chance, ask them how many more indictments, judgments, and shutdown records he needs to rack up before that chance runs out. Robert S Warner

This handsome lad is still waiting for a new home. Can you please share? Teddy is a 5 year old male Mastiff mix - he is available and looking for a new home. He eats Ava sensitive skin and stomach mix from Pets at Home. Teddy is good in the car but only use to short journeys. He sleeps in the kitchen at night but would sometimes also sleep in his owners bed. He is registered with the vets and can be left on his own if you need to go out. Teddy is a big boy, he may knock small kids over, so he would suit a home with older dog savvy kids 10+. He loves people and is good once he gets a clap, but he is wary of men wearing hats. Teddy walks well on the lead and he use to go walking with a dog walker and was fine. Teddy loves a ball rope, he likes to chew on the rope until it's untied. He likes treats. There isn't much that Teddy doesn't like, however he doesn't like the sound of metal/shutter noise as he got a fright when he was a puppy. Teddy loves lying in bed under the covers. He would be best in a home with no other pets or cats. He isn't really fussed by other dogs when he is out walking. Teddy knows basic commands. For more information or to offer Teddy a new home please email [email protected] Sorry we are unable to accept messages to the page regarding pets for rehoming, please email the address above.

Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage, who thrive on anti-immigrant rhetoric and Islamophobia, must find this rather inconvenient: A Pakistani Muslim doctor receiving national recognition for saving thousands of British children's lives. While some build careers spreading fear of immigrants, others dedicate theirs to saving British lives. What a contrast!
World-leading cardiac surgeon Asif Hasan was surrounded by the children who received the gift of life thanks to his unerring skills at the emotional climax of another memorable Pride of Britain ceremony. 🥹 Now 70 years old, Mr Hasan has just retired after 35 years of service at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle upon Tyne, but just after receiving his Lifetime Achievement Award, he had an extra special surprise: a cast of patients who would not be alive without him. ❤️

Tonight, my family and I experienced something no family should ever have to go through. Our restaurant, Singh’s Dining Restaurant in Hammersmith, was attacked by a group of Islamists. We had been receiving death threats every single day, including one that specifically warned us that 28 October would be our last day. We raised our concerns, and the @metpoliceuk were aware of the threats. Yet tonight, we found ourselves facing the very nightmare we had feared. My daughter had to close the shutters just in time. I cannot even begin to imagine what might have happened if she hadn’t acted so quickly. We could have lost someone in our family tonight. The attackers reportedly tried for a long time to break through the shutters to get inside, leaving shortly before the police arrived. We have serious concerns about how the attackers knew when to leave, and whether they were alerted before the police arrived. These concerns deserve a thorough and transparent investigation. Tonight, I am left facing a heartbreaking decision, Do we keep our doors open and risk our lives, or do we shut down the business we have worked so hard to build because I don’t serve Halal food. No family should ever have to choose between their livelihood and their safety. No one should have to live in fear in their own place of work. I am angry. I am heartbroken. I am frightened for my family’s safety. I am calling on the @metpoliceuk to take these threats seriously, investigate tonight’s attack thoroughly, and ensure that my family is protected. Please share this post. Let our voices be heard. We should not have to wait for someone to lose their life before our safety is taken seriously. Enough IS Enough. #Justice

Please don’t give animals away online. This isn’t safe. If you need help to rehome, please contact a rescue or a rehoming place, such as us, if we can’t help, we can often sign post to help. We’re seeing so many dogs and cats being advertised “free to good home”. We understand from years of experience that some people do this to “get rid” of an animal quickly, while others don’t realise the dangers and think there is no help available. Please be the animals voice, if you see a pet being given away online, a kind mention or word to highlight the dangers could potentially save a pet from falling into the wrong hangs - often these messages are sadly ignored, however if it reaches the right person, they can then make an informed decision of whether to ask for help or not. Not everyone is kind and caring and some people will want to take pets to breed them or other purposes. Please be careful and don’t give animals away online. For advice or if you need help to rehome in a safe and responsible way , please email [email protected] We’ve also attached our website in the comments below.

A Welshman walks into a ‘Spoons. Tells the barman he's got a great joke about Reform voters. The barman tells him that he's a Reform voter, so are the 3 big guys at the end of the bar and the 2 woman sat next to him. 'So do you still want to tell it', the barman says. The man says. 'No. Not if I'm going to have to explain it 6 times"... 😆
