Oh look far right terrorists

This is the littermate of Tasselhoff and Lucy. She is the identical twin of Tasselhoff. The only way to tell the difference is that she has a slightly more pronounced maw and the end of her tail theit tail you can feel, but not see, a tiny fleshy bit at the end.

She will let you know if you are not delivering a sufficient amount of attention to her. She sleeps on that unused pillow on your bed and the moment she detects you are awake she will start pawing at you to let you in she needs petting.

She also doesn't have as many freckles as her twin Tasselhoff despite the fact that Charlie actually goes outside and gets sun.

MPs will vote on plans to limit jury trials this week.

Supporters say it will cut the enormous backlog of cases clogging up the courts, while critics argue it dismantles a centuries-old safeguard.

The bill that writes the Budget into law finishes its Commons journey.

The chancellor will also give evidence on the Spring Forecast to the Treasury select committee on Wednesday.

And the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill comes back from the Lords.

Peers made 13 amendments for MPs to consider.

TUESDAY 10 MARCH

Domestic Abuse (Pets) Bill
Extends domestic abuse law to cover pets. Abusers often threaten or harm animals as a way to control victims, and fear of leaving a pet behind can stop people escaping an abusive relationship. Applies non-molestation orders and occupation orders to behaviour involving pets, updates the legal definitions of controlling behaviour and economic abuse to include harm to animals, and extends Domestic Abuse Protection Orders to cover pets. Ten minute rule motion presented by Ruth Jones.

Courts and Tribunals Bill – 2nd reading
Applies to: England, Wales, Scotland (part), Northern Ireland (part)
A wide-ranging justice bill. Removes the right for defendants facing a likely sentence of three years or less to have their case heard by a jury in the Crown Court. Instead, a judge would hear the case alone. Removes a rule in family law that courts must presume a parent’s involvement in their child’s life is beneficial – a change aimed at better protecting children from parents who pose a risk. Reforms the leadership structure of the tribunal system, among other things.

WEDNESDAY 11 MARCH

Lord Advocate (Removal of Dual Role) Bill
Allows the Scottish Parliament to split the role of Scotland's Lord Adovcate in two. They are currently head of the prosecution service and chief legal adviser to the Scottish Government. This means they advise ministers while also making independent decisions on prosecutions, which some argue is a conflict of interest. Ten minute rule motion presented by John Cooper.

Finance (No. 2) Bill – report stage and 3rd reading
Applies to: England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland
Writes into law the measures announced in last October's Budget.

(Beirut) – The Israeli military unlawfully used artillery-fired white phosphorus munitions over homes on March 3, 2026, in the southern Lebanese town of Yohmor, Human Rights Watch said today.

Human Rights Watch verified and geolocated seven images showing airburst white phosphorus munitions being deployed over a residential part of the town and civil defense workers responding to fires in at least two homes and one car in that area.

“The Israeli military’s unlawful use of white phosphorus over residential areas is extremely alarming and will have dire consequences for civilians,” said Ramzi Kaiss, Lebanon researcher at Human Rights Watch. “The incendiary effects of white phosphorous can cause death or cruel injuries that result in lifelong suffering.”

Belka came as part of a three pack from the shelter. Free barn cats. We were just starting our homestead and we had a problem with field mice, cotton rats and voles because of the 34 acres of habitat surrounding our one acre.

Her name means squirrel in Russian. Just because.

As much as orange cats get mocked for their single brain cell Belka is here to prove that there are less intelligent cats. She spent the first year on our screened in porch because she could not figure out how the cat door works.

But once she did understand the cat door she proved to be the best mouser ever. In the seven years since she figured out the cat door she has never failed to bring home a rodent a day. She is the all time champ for confirmed kills.

Which also means that despite her extremely accepting nature and general brainlessness she has learned to recognize a syringe full of panacur and try to run if she sees it. She is not a fan of it but is constantly in need of it because the tapeworms love her.

She is old. We got her seven years ago. We don't know how old she is now but she is missing an eye tooth so she is probably at least 9 years old. We are making efforts to bring her inside so she can enjoy retirement. She gets wet food almost every day. But she still wants to go out. She craves the rats. She would have been a god in ancient Egypt.

When not out hunting she can be spotted sleeping above our dishwasher.

On 9 September 2022, Lucia Osborne-Crowley flew from London to Miami and caught a Greyhound bus north to West Palm Beach. The writer and journalist had arranged to meet Carolyn Andriano, who was abused by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell from the age of 14 until she was 17, starting in 2001. Andriano had been a crucial witness in the trial against Maxwell in 2021.

When the two women met, Andriano said she had just been visited by a private investigator – a man in his 60s, who had heard she was talking to someone about a book. In a restaurant that afternoon, Osborne-Crowley was approached by a man in his 60s. What was she writing, he wanted to know. He offered her drugs, cash and a meeting with one of Epstein’s pilots, then put his hands under her skirt. When the manager asked him to leave, he waited in the car park; Osborne-Crowley had to escape through a staff exit.

She had been following the Epstein case for six years by then and had written a book about the Maxwell trial, The Lasting Harm; this was just a taste of what others had experienced. In November 2025, 28 Epstein survivors released a statement saying many of them had received death threats. They all asked for police protection.

With Epstein dead and Maxwell in jail, who was paying these men? “It could be any of the people who are not yet facing charges,” says Osborne-Crowley when we meet. “Firstly, they can afford it. The weekend I was in Miami, there was a person following me, a person following a survivor in South Africa who was in my book, and a person following a survivor in the UK. Just so that we all were aware.” Two women withdrew from The Lasting Harm after receiving threats. “Ghislaine used to tell them: ‘If you ever tell anyone what’s going on here, no matter how far into the future, we will find you and we will stop you.’ And in a lot of ways, that promise was kept.”

Andriano died in a hotel in May 2023, eight months after Osborne-Crowley’s visit. The autopsy recorded an accidental overdose of methadone and fentanyl. It was a shock to those who knew her. “She’d been clean for so long and I spoke to her the day before,” says Osborne-Crowley. “It didn’t feel like she was about to relapse for the first time in 10 years.”

I been playing Les Paul for many years, but then I found this beauty.

I bought it 2'nd hand for about 240Euro (1800Dkr), and despite being one of the cheapest guitars in my collection, it's my absolute favourite.

It's such a relief for my back (my Les Paul weighs around 4.8Kg while this is only around 2.8Kg), it plays like a dream and the fretboard feels just like a Les Paul, just a little bit thinner.

I been using my LP when playing songs in drop-D tuning, just so I can make a fast switch and don't have to tune the guitar, and the difference in weight is very noticeable, it's like wearing a thin summer dress instead of a heavy winter coat.

I have only tried it a couple of times with the band, and I already noticed that I move around a lot more on stage when using the Ibanez.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Sunday would not commit to blocking any additional funding for the war in Iran, saying the president has so far failed to justify the war but “we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.”

Jeffries said the administration has so far “failed to make its case … for this war of choice in the Middle East,” and unless President Donald Trump provides a “compelling rationale,” he’s “going to have a difficult case to make on Capitol Hill.”

Congress last year approved a $900 billion defense spending bill as part of routine annual budget appropriations, and the president signed the bill into law in December. But since the U.S. began its military operation in Iran, lawmakers have been considering the need to pass additional defense spending to bolster the U.S. military.
