SERIOUS UPDATE REGARDING DANNY TOMMO - Very concerning news from my dad has just come to light.
His case for the incident where he went into the Dover Immigration Facility was due to be heard in Kent Magistrates tomorrow, this has now been moved to Westminster, less than 24 hours before the court hearing with one of the highest profile magistrate judges in the land overseeing the case.
This causes a major safety risk for my father as he has been told he will not be returning to Winchester but will be held in Belmarsh
My dad and my family have had numerous threats to life many of these are from people in that area of the country or people connected to Belmarsh prison itself and this unjustified legal manoeuvre has major implications and potential life threatening repercussions.
I will update you as this situation progresses
Thank you all Shae.

Mortuaries should check this 👇
I hope the UK is taking note of this and checking whether fridges and freezers here use the same or similar software especially the NHS (including in mortuaries). BBC News - Fridges in French supermarkets hit by cyber attack

Regulation not just for the funeral industry but for everyone involved in care of the deceased and those who have been bereaved....NHS and Local Authority Mortuaries should be included.

Pakistan has its own space programme, yet we send it £133 million a year in aid while shutting down Britain's largest space telescope because we “can't afford” a few million.
This telescope helped inspire generations of scientists.
If we keep cutting investment in our own scientific infrastructure while other nations push ahead, we'll only fall further behind.
I hope this decision is reversed. Britain should be investing in its future, not dismantling it.
This is genuinely sad to see.
The Government can find the money to increase foreign aid from 0.2% to 0.7%, while we already send Pakistan £133 million a year.
Yet we can't find a few million to keep Britain's largest space telescope open.
It helped support the Apollo missions, tracked Soviet rockets during the Cold War, and inspired generations of scientists.
Our priorities are completely backwards.
