Basically form an 800 mile buffer zone between Russia and Ukraine, policed and paid for by European forces. America will not send troops or pay for this buffer zone, entirely a European responsibility.
Russia to keep the part of Ukraine they occupy at negotiation time.

Ginger Nut on Trumps Hit List (Edited)
Despot Prince Harry who dumped the UK for a life of luxury in California is on Trumps hit list for deportation. The ginger haired little craphead will have to slink back to the UK and sponge off the Royals Sovereign Grant and King Charles's kindness.

Yumove warning - genuine - off F/book
Please delete if not allowed. An urgent recall of Yumove for dogs due to counterfeit product inside box.
Please check your box if ordered from Amazon.
·
‼️ FOR THE ATTENTION OF ANY DOG OWNERS THAT GIVE YUMOVE ‼️
This is very important so please read 😣
*Update*- Zac deteriorated further and attended the vets but sadly had to be put to sleep this afternoon 😢💔 he was so incredibly brave and loved by so many 🥺
For the past week our family dog, Zac, has been severely unwell. He’s had constant sickness and diarrhoea, loss of appetite completely and not eaten for days. He was so unwell we took him to the vets to have blood tests and it came back he had Liver Disease 😲 He then deteriorated rapidly and was scheduled to be Put To Sleep 😢
Yesterday we recieved an email from Amazon saying the YuMove tablets had been recalled because they’re counterfeit and hazardous 😡 we worked out zac has had 36 of these tablets and has potentially been poisoned 💔
We are absolutely heartbroken as he was due to be taken to the vets that day to say goodbye 😢 and after finding out the awful truth we can’t believe it has come to this.
He has now been given antibiotics and anti sickness form the vets and has perked up slightly but is still very very poorly 😔
IF YOU GIVE YOUR DOGS YUMOVE, ESPECIALLY FROM AMAZON PLEASE DISCARD STRAIGHT AWAY AS THEYRE HAZARDOUS POTENTIALLY FATAL
⭐️ Even if this doesn’t affect you please share far and wide to make other dogs owners aware 😔
In our case the box was real but the tablets inside were fake, we also noticed the expiration dates didn’t match up on the sleeve compared to what the box said.
If you’re worried about your dog please take them to the vets straight away 😔

Up early this morning I saw a news item about the rise in drive off offences at the fuel pumps
https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/driving/2024-09/petrol-station-drive-offs-see-double-digit-increase/
I know this has always occurred as a relative of my husband accidentally drove off without paying many years ago and hadn’t realised until he was contacted by police. Embarrassed he went straight back to the garage and not only paid for his fuel but paid extra to help them recoup, what was then a crime that occurred just a few times each week.
Now it appears it’s a regular occurrence which seems quite bizarre when fuel is some 20-30p lower per litre than it was a year or so ago.
I try not to take sides (Edited)
But I’m re-training 😅
This really is ridiculous as it’s on top of their normal salary. I have worked New Year’s Eve as usually my sons visited their father’s family then but all I got was a glass of fizz and £5 an hour and then I had to get a taxi home!

Send black children to jail longer...
Say councils. In the game Monopoly, white children should start with more money and spend less turns in jail than ethnic children to show white privilege.

Conservative Leadership Contest (Edited)
Kemi Badenoch has won.
I know she is still part of the recently departed Tory party but I'm glad Jenrick didn't win.
Not often I recommend products but I've ordered these . I received the boy one and immediately ordered a girl one for my granddaughter as the books look so good.
One tip..upload four or 5 photos to be able pick the favourite one. You can see the preview before buying.
I did the paperback but it's actually quite large!
