(I saw a disturbing video of gunshots ringing off while the TikToker was live streaming). These people are ruining a good thing. Maybe it’s Jah works why plans are underway for the platform to be banned. Sad because so many people are making a living off the platform.12142thetherapistsol08/12/2024It’s not going to be banned in Jamaica but the absence of a US presence will hurt the app for sure11

Related: Woman defends charging family £150 for Christmas Day dinner
SIGN UPI would like to be emailed about offers, events and updates from The Independent. Read our privacy policy
A woman has sparked discourse online after sharing why she decided to charge her family for staying over during Christmas.
In a post shared to the “Am I the A**hole” forum on Reddit, a woman revealed why she planned to charge her relatives after their previous visit left her home in chaos. She explained that she recently purchased her “dream home,” a four-bedroom house with a sprawling backyard and a pool, an upgrade she’s deeply proud of.
As someone who lives alone, she noted that she enjoys keeping her home in pristine condition. However, her sister, husband, and their three children recently asked if they could stay with her for Christmas. She was initially open to the idea, writing: “They live out of state and wanted to spend the holidays with our family without paying for a hotel.”
But memories of their last visit made her apprehensive.
“They stayed with me for a weekend last year, and it was a disaster,” she recalled. “The kids destroyed my sofa with markers and spilled juice on my rug, which I had to replace. My sister brushed it off, saying, ‘Kids are kids,’ and didn’t offer to pay for the damage.”
RECOMMENDED
The ordeal cost her more than $500 in replacements, as she added: “Her husband barely helped with cleaning or watching the kids. I felt like a maid in my own house.”
As a result, the woman decided to set boundaries to protect her space and sanity. While she agreed to let her sister’s family stay at her home, she introduced a “house guest agreement” outlining specific conditions. The agreement required her sister to pay a $100 cleaning fee upfront, immediately cover any damages, and contribute $50 per night for utilities, citing the increased heating and water costs during the winter.
Although she viewed the terms as reasonable, her sister did not.
“She called me greedy and said I was treating my family like ‘Airbnb guests,’” the woman wrote, adding that her sister accused her of ruining the holiday spirit. The disagreement escalated, with their parents siding against her and labeling her “cold-hearted.”
Her sister argued that she was prioritizing money over family, leaving the family divided. The woman wrote: “I think I’m being fair by setting boundaries, but maybe I’ve taken it too far? I don’t know, please help.”
In the comment section, commenters were quick to chime in, with one Reddit user recommending that she refuse their visit altogether.
“Better if you said no,” the commenter wrote. “Regardless of how much money you charge, the kids probably won’t be any better behaved. The husband won’t be any less lazy, and neither of them will be better parents. You’ll be on edge the whole time, and they’ll be resentful.”
“Just say no, dude,” another person agreed. “I mean, she’s gonna be pissy whether you say no or present her with a contract that — come on — you definitely knew was going to piss her off. Just choose the easier option of ‘no’ and move on.”

This video illustrates how many people in the uk see the way in which our country is being run.
Do you have an opinion about the state of our support systems and how they can be improved on.
In the UK approximately 40 years ago we had youth clubs and community centres virtually country wide which dealt with issues in the community at the point of need and in real time.
The point at which these services were axed by governments,
the contact between the ruling parties and community people have declined.
Has many adult have a negative outlook about young people in general, I felt it was a good time to remind the adults that they were responsible for the removal of our community hubs

The writer-star has had a baby, lost a close friend and published a memoir in lockdown. She talks about the trouble with male comedy writers – and why she wants to make a sketch show all about the clitoris
n the day in April that Rachel Bloom finally took her newborn daughter home from the hospital, one of her best friends died. Her daughter had arrived with fluid in her lungs, into a maternity ward that was rapidly filling with furniture as other wards were transformed into Covid wards. Bloom, tired and elated to be home, had a nap. Her husband woke her with the news: Adam Schlesinger – the well-loved musician and one of Bloom’s closest collaborators on the musical-dramedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend – had died from Covid-19 in a New York hospital, aged 52.
For a wild and strange period, it was unclear how to grieve. Schlesinger, like so many of this year’s dead, had no funeral. Jack Dolgen, the third part of the songwriting trio behind the TV show, came to mourn with Bloom, standing 15ft from her fence. Aline Brosh McKenna, the showrunner, stood in the street. “We didn’t know anything, there was no testing, we didn’t know how this thing spread,” Bloom says. “Now we have a Crazy Ex Zoom, where we all talk. But there’s nothing natural about it.”
Scrawny and proudly nerdy (“I sang show tunes under my breath and used words like ‘parlance’”), Bloom attracted bullies, then developed anxiety, which has stayed with her. She shed the bullies for a time in high school, when her talent for performing suddenly made her cool. At New York University, she majored in musical theatre, but was daunted by the competition of her cohort. So, at 19, she refocused on the college sketch comedy group.
There she found herself pursued by two older male members, her comedy mentors, and dated both. But when she decided the dynamic was getting too messy and told both men it was over, they helped to persuade other men in the group to have her thrown out.
Just a year ago, Bloom called one of the men who had helped to remove her to explain the impact this had on her. “He had always known the situation was fucked up, but it took me calling him out. I told him: ‘I’ve been pissed at you. This was terrible and it hurt me and what you did was wrong.’” He did it, she says, “because he was afraid, because he was working on a script with these guys. It was bros before hoes.”

Sex after 50 can be fulfilling, but it may require more planning and thought than in previous years. Some factors that can affect sex life after 50 include:
Here are some tips for having a good sex life after 50:
As you age, some conditions or medicines may put a damper on your sex drive and performance. But don’t think that if you’re in the over-50 crowd, you have to settle for a less-than-fulfilling sex life.
You can still enjoy sex -- you just may have to put a little more thought and planning into it than you did when you were younger.
Here are 7 things you can do to keep sex exciting and fulfilling for you and your partner:
You may think of sex as leisurely, but you can work up quite a sweat during lovemaking. Here are a few reasons why getting fit can help you get it on:
It strengthens your muscles. Nothing can kill a mood faster than hurting your back or pulling a muscle. Check into the best strength-training exercises for you.
It improves your mood. Exercise can release chemicals in your brainthat make you feel better and more at ease. When was the last time you felt blue and also interested in sex?
It helps you look better. Regular exercise can keep your body looking its best and that can help your confidence and boost your sex life.
For women, regular physical activity might help with arousal.
Women may also benefit from what’s called Kegel exercises. They can make your pelvic floor muscles stronger. You can identify those muscles the next time you pee by stopping in midstream. You can practice tightening and relaxing those muscles several times a day.
Men who exercise are less likely to have problems with erectile dysfunction, or ED, than men who are inactive. If you enjoy long-distance bicycling, make sure you have a soft, comfortable seat and a bike that fits you properly. This can help you avoid a potential ED problem.
Be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin any new exercise program.
When you’ve been with the same partner for a long time, you may want to come up with ideas to add a little variety to your sex life.
The answer might be something as simple as changing the time of day you have sex. If you’re too sleepy at night, maybe sex in the morning is right for both of you.
Some other ideas to keep things interesting:
If you or your partner can’t do this anymore, there are other options for you to enjoy closeness and pleasure.
The simple but intimate acts of kissing and touching should not be overlooked. You and your partner may also consider:
If arthritis or ongoing pain makes sex less enjoyable, find ways to feel better. Try a new position that’s easier on your body or use pillows for support.
If you have back pain, for instance, have sex side-by-side instead of in the missionary position, which can make back pain worse.
Plan sex for a time of day when you feel your best. Ahead of time, take a warm bath or some pain medicine if you need it so that you'll be more relaxed.
The side effects of some medications can cause sexual problems. Some that can do this include:
If you have reason to suspect that any of your meds are dampening your sex life, talk with your doctor.
Before you reconnect with your partner, give your body time to recover. Once you have your doctor's OK, start slowly with sensual touch and kissing.
Speak honestly with your partner about how you're feeling, both physically and emotionally.

Your ex broke up with you and were thinking about trying the no contact rule, but they have already moved on to someone new.
You might ask yourself if there’s even a point in trying the no contact rule anymore.
Well, spoiler alert: The no contact rule CAN and does work when your ex is seeing someone else… but only if you do it right.
That’s right; there’s a lot more to the no contact rule than what you might think, so let’s first talk about what the no contact rule is.
The no contact rule is basically the foundation upon which an entire strategy of getting an ex back (or even moving on from them) is built.
I’ve written several articles on it, filmed many different videos, and even done podcast episodes over it.
But what is this elusive no contact rule?
Well, simply put, the no contact rule is a period of time where you ignore your ex on purpose with the intent of making them miss you, while at the same time working on upgrading your life in all necessary areas.

You might ask yourself if there’s even a point in trying the no contact rule anymore.
Well, spoiler alert: The no contact rule CAN and does work when your ex is seeing someone else… but only if you do it right.
That’s right; there’s a lot more to the no contact rule than what you might think, so let’s first talk about what the no contact rule is.
The no contact rule is basically the foundation upon which an entire strategy of getting an ex back (or even moving on from them) is built.
I’ve written several articles on it, filmed many different videos, and even done podcast episodes over it.
But what is this elusive no contact rule?
Well, simply put, the no contact rule is a period of time where you ignore your ex on purpose with the intent of making them miss you, while at the same time working on upgrading your life in all necessary areas.
How does this work when your ex has moved on?
Does it lose effectiveness in that particular case?
Well, I think to properly answer that question we need to talk about two things:
Let’s start from the top.
When the average person wants to learn about the no contact rule, they Google it and wind up on either my site or someone else’s website and learn about the note contact rule, but they fail to understand the true meaning behind it.
Remember the definition I just shared?
Well, people only read up to the “making your ex miss you” part, and they miss the memo about upgrading their life.
Yes, the no contact rule can make your ex miss you, but it doesn’t necessarily guarantee that they will miss you. Really the secret sauce of the no contact rule is what you’re using your time to do during the no contact rule.
When I interview real-life success stories of people who’ve used the no contact rule to get their exes back, the one big pattern I noticed is that they didn’t sit around, hoping the no contact rule was going to make their ex miss them.
Instead, they took ownership of their lives during the no contact rule and became refined versions of themselves that they could then wow their ex with when they actually started talking.
Sure, there’s been a few cases where the no contact rule was basically all it took for their ex to come begging back, but that’s not the case 90% of the time, so I wouldn’t bet on it.
Usually, people get their exes back because of the growth they experienced during the no contact rule.
Almost every success story I talk to shares the same experience about the no contact rule: feeling absolutely defeated and depressed for the first two weeks but then going on to realize that they are WAY better than this.
That Eureka moment is followed by those success stories giving more time to self-love so they can realize their true potential and basically stop caring about whether their ex comes back.
According to our success stories, getting your ex back when they’ve moved on isn’t just a function of what you do with your time during the no contact rule, but actually the length of time you stay in the no contact rule.
At the start of my career, advising people whose exes had moved on was particularly hard for me, especially because, in my opinion, a breakup is essentially someone admitting that they think that they can do better than you and they’re going out to try to find that.
So, what do you do if your ex has found someone that they think is better than you?
How long are you supposed to stay in a no contact rule?
Well, early on, I believed that the shortest amount of time is probably ideal. My reasoning behind this was that if you can stand the no contact rule for 21 days, you can hop back into your ex’s life before him and the new person have too much time to form deep connections.
New support group for men will be launched in Wolverhampton next week by Adult Education Wolverhampton’s Exams Officer Danny Rice.
The newest branch of Andy’s Man Club will meet for the first time at the University of Wolverhampton Science Park next Monday (25 November) at 7pm and all are welcome.
Andy’s Man Club aims to end the stigma surrounding men’s mental health, help men through the power of conversation, and let everyone know that it’s okay to talk.
Danny said: “Last year, I found myself feeling completely overwhelmed – waiting for an operation and dealing with a lot of other life challenges that were weighing me down.
“That’s when I took the step to go to Andy’s Man Club. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, safe, and supported.
“Talking openly with others who understood made a huge difference, giving me the space to process things and to start seeing a way forward. Through the weekly sessions and the genuine connections, I began to sort things out, regain my confidence, and feel more like myself.
“I was traveling to Stafford as this was the nearest club. After becoming a facilitator, I wanted to establish an Andy’s Man Club in Wolverhampton, and I’m proud to say that many people have supported me and Andy’s Man Club in making it happen.
“There are no fees, no registration, and no pressure to talk, you’ll be welcomed with a brew and a biscuit, and you’ll be able to talk and open up about anything that’s bothering you in a supportive, non-judgemental environment.”
Andy’s Man Club will meet at the University of Wolverhampton Science Park every Monday (excluding Bank Holidays) from 7pm, and is being launched as part of Project 50, Andy’s Man Club’s commitment to open 50 new clubs in the West Midlands by the end of 2025, ensuring there is a club within 30 minutes of every man.
For more information about Andy’s Man Club, please visit Andy’s Man Club.
Today (Tuesday 19 November, 2024) is International Men's Day, a global observance that celebrates the positive contributions and achievements of men while addressing important issues affecting men's health, well-being, and gender equality.

She's one of the best known faces and voices in British politics. And Jess Phillips' regular media appearances, newspaper columns, speaking engagements and books have helped her rise through the ranks of Parliament's high earners.
Phillips features in a top 20 of MPs who rake in a 'second income' off the back of being an MP, on top of their £84,000 base annual salary. Since December 2019, according to analysis by Sky News and Tortoise Media, the MP for Yardley has earned a private income of £162,838, nearly all from media and writing work.
Yet that pales into comparison with Conservative MPs locally. Top of the earners is Andrew Mitchell, MP for Sutton Coldfield, who earned £657,796 on top of his MP salary in three years.
This included £30,000 for just five days of consulting work a year for financial company Ernst and Young; £12,000 for two days work a year as a consultant to a wealth management company, Investec; and £9,000 a year for providing advice, eight days a year, to strategic consultants Montrose Associates.
He was also a 'senior adviser on African matters' to SouthBridge, an investment bank based in Rwanda, receiving £39,600 in return for a commitment of nine days a year. He has also been a senior advisor to Kingsley Capital Partners, a private equity and venture capital firm, receiving remuneration as well as shares worth more than £130,000.
When approached today, Mr Mitchell said he had relinquished all outside interests since becoming Secretary of State for International Development. “Since rejoining the Government last year I no longer have any outside interests. When I did have those interests , looking after my constituents of course always came first.“
Sajid Javid, MP for Bromsgrove and former Health Secretary, made £358,017 over the same period. The analysis was compiled by Sky News and Tortoise Media, based on public information shared by MPs who have to declare all earnings.
Theresa May, Sir Geoffrey Cox and Boris Johnson make up the top three, all earning more than a million pounds in addition to their MP's salary.
All told, MPs have earned £17.1m on top of their salaries in this parliament, with around two-thirds of the money going to just 20 MPs. The majority of the extra earnings went to Tory politicians - a total of £15.2m - while Labour MPs earned an additional £1.2m.
All MPs are paid a base salary of £84,144.
A quick glance at Phillips' most recent earnings entries on the register of interests give examples of her income, including shedding light on what broadcasters and event organisers are prepared to pay the ebullient MP to appear on their shows. They included £1,000 for speaking at Bewdley Festival, £400 from New Statesman for writing a diary column, £1,000 from Bristol University for giving a lecture, and £3,000 for appearing on the Last Leg TV show.

For presenting an episode of Have I Got News For You in December 2021 the MP received £15,000. She is also paid for a regular column in The Independent newspaper and received advances and payments for books including 'the Life of an MP', 'Everywoman' and 'Truth to Power'.
The full breakdown of local MPs who financially benefited from earnings totalling more than £30,000 in the last three years, according to the SkyNews analysis, is as follows:
1. Andrew Mitchell, MP for Sutton Coldfield (Cons): £657,796
2. Sajid Javid, MP for Bromsgrove (Cons): £358,017
3. Owen Paterson, former MP for North Shropshire (Cons): £209,227
4. Jess Phillips, MP for Yardley (Lab): £162,838
Spending such a seemingly game-changing sum would face several hurdles and could even hinder the party’s chances
ver the 2024 general election period, combined donations to every UK party totalled about £50m. If reports are to be believed, Elon Musk could be about to give considerably more to just one – Reform UK. Is this a political game-changer? As ever with politics and money, there is no one answer.
One caveat must be mentioned: not only is the prospect of the world’s richest person helping out Nigel Farage’s party still very much at the ideas stage, but the mooted figure of $100m (£80m) is disputed, with the Reform leader describing it as “for the birds”.
That said, and with a final qualification that under electoral law, the donation would need to be channelled through a UK-based subsidiary, Musk does have a clear track record in shifting the political dial using his riches, spending an estimated $250m-plus helping Donald Trump get re-elected.
James LandaleDiplomatic correspondent@BBCJLandale
In Donald Trump's first term, governments around the world braced for his morning social media posts. What policy would be reversed, what insult thrown? Four years on, diplomats are once more getting twitchy when the sun rises on America's east coast.
Back then, they learned to take Trump - as the adage had it - "seriously but not literally". Despite many campaign promises, he did not take the US out of Nato or lock up Hilary Clinton. But can ministers stay so sanguine a second time around?
Trump's latest morning salvo criticised the UK government's decision to increase taxes on oil and gas firms working in the North Sea, in part to help fund renewable energy.
On his platform, Truth Social, Trump responded to a report about a US oil firm leaving the region, saying: "The U.K. is making a very big mistake. Open up the North Sea. Get rid of Windmills!"
Was this merely a familiar defence of a US firm by Trump and a repetition of his pro-fossil fuel instincts? Or was it evidence of a greater willingness by the president-elect to intervene in an ally's own domestic policies?
The main difference - four years on - is that Trump is no longer alone at the keyboard; his increasingly powerful fellow traveller, Elon Musk, is even more prolific, using his own platform, X, to attack the British government across the board. He has criticised its handling of last summer's riots, the running of the economy and now especially its attitude towards child abuse scandals.
Musk has issued a torrent of tweets attacking Sir Keir Starmer personally, accusing the prime minister of not doing enough to prosecute child grooming gangs while he was the director of public prosecutions.
British politicians cannot stem these posts from across the Atlantic. But they can control their reaction. During Trump's first term, governments - and news desks - learned to pause and take a moment before responding to - or reporting - the latest electronic missives from the White House.
Thus far the Conservatives have chosen to engage with and echo Musk's agenda. The party leader, Kemi Badenoch, said a full national inquiry into organised grooming gangs was "long overdue".
But the Conservatives balked at Musk's apparent support for the jailed far-right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson.
Musk has shared several posts on X calling for the release of Yaxley-Lennon, who was jailed in October after admitting contempt of court by repeating false claims against a Syrian refugee.
Alicia Kearns, the Conservative shadow safeguarding minister, said it was "frankly dangerous" of Musk to be "lionising people like Tommy Robinson".
As for Labour, it seems keen to avoid picking a fight with one of the world's richest men who could one day fund a rival political party. Nigel Farage's Reform Party has said Musk is among "a number of billionaires" interested in donating money for their campaigns.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting said Musk's comments about child grooming scandals were "misjudged and certainly misinformed" but asked the billionaire to work with the UK government to tackle online child abuse.
Musk has repeatedly posted in support of Robinson, who is serving an 18-month prison sentence, pinning a post saying “Free Tommy Robinson!” to the top of his page on X and posting or reposting content about Robinson and the U.K. government more than a dozen times on Wednesday alone.
Robinson—whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lemmon—founded the anti-Islam English Defence League and has become a major far-right figure in the U.K., attracting thousands of supporters to rallies and garnering widespread criticism for his divisive anti-immigrant rhetoric.
He was sentenced to 18 months in prison in October after being found guilty of contempt, as Robinson repeatedly violated a court order finding him liable for making libelous claims about a Syrian refugee, which he has continued to repeat despite that ruling.
Musk reinstated Robinson’s account on X, formerly known as Twitter, after the far-right activist was previously banned from the platform, and has tweeted in support of Robinson in the past, but has ramped up his support in recent days.
The posts supporting Robinson come as Musk has increasingly inserted himself into British politics: he met with Nigel Farage, the leader of the U.K.’s far-right Reform UK Party, in December, and Farage claimed Musk is giving “serious thought” to helping bankroll the British party.
Right-leaning British politicians believe Musk’s endorsement of Robinson is a “step too far,” however, Bloomberg reported Friday, citing anonymous sources who said prominent British politicians allied with Trump spent Thursday urging their U.S. counterparts not to follow Musk by backing Robinson.
Do you think Elon musk should stop the gaslighting and stick to his craft. It is clear to see that the worlds richest man is misinformed.

Anne Puckridge is among half a million pensioners living abroad missing out on state pension increases
Rupert JonesSat 30 Nov 2024 07.00 GMTShare
This weekend, a few weeks before her 100th birthday, a former wartime intelligence officer will set off on a new mission: to meet with the UK pensions minister and persuade her to end an “injustice”.
Anne Puckridge is travelling 4,400 miles from her home in Canada to ask the UK government to change rules that campaigners say penalise almost half a million pensioners living overseas and leave many struggling financially.
Many of them, including Puckridge, receive a state pension that is a fraction of what they would get if they had stayed in the UK or moved to one of a list of other countries.
This is because although the UK state pension is payable overseas, it is not “uprated” annually unless there is a legal requirement to do so – for example, where there is a relevant reciprocal social security agreement in place
About 480,000 older Britons living abroad are affected by this “frozen pensions” policy. Their state pensions do not increase each year, but stay at the level reached on the date the individual moved away if they had already retired, or became entitled to the payment if they were already living overseas.
The rules apply to the old basic state pension and the new state pension introduced in 2016. The full basic state pension is now £169.50 a week, and, for many pensioners, will rise by 4.1% in April to reach £176.45.
But those Britons who emigrated or retired to more than 100 countries including Australia, Canada and South Africa will not benefit from the increase.
I can’t remember when I bought anything new, and I have to limit even essential purchases to thrift and similar stores
Some “frozen” pensioners have missed years of rises and, as a result, receive as little as £20 a week.
Puckridge says she has been punished by the British government for deciding in 2001, at the age of 76, to move to Canada to be close to her daughter. She served as an intelligence officer during the second world war, and worked on codes across the army, RAF and navy. Puckridge then returned to the UK and brought up her family, working in administrative jobs and, later, as a lecturer in Stroud, Gloucestershire.
Despite the fact she lived and worked in the UK for most of her life, making national insurance contributions throughout her career, her UK basic state pension is frozen at the 2001 level of £72.50.
Since then Puckridge has received £50,000 less than had she spent the last 23 years in the UK. She says the pension freeze has affected “virtually every decision in my life”.
She adds: “I can’t remember when I bought anything new, and I have to limit even essential purchases to thrift and similar stores. Social activity and entertainment are mainly only memories, and festive seasons such as the approaching Christmas or birthdays are embarrassing rather than exciting events.”
The End Frozen Pensions campaign says the current regime is “cruel and unnecessary”.
Puckridge is due to arrive in the UK on Sunday and had formally requested a meeting with Keir Starmer.
Her call was backed by the actor Joanna Lumley and more than 30 UK parliamentarians, including the former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

In the 60s, long before Trevor McDonald and Moira Stuart became household names, a 26-year-old from Jamaica was a regular on the news. Then the racist letters and calls started
Ellen E JonesThu 7 Jan 2021 06.00 GMTShare
In 2008, Barbara Blake-Hannah sat down to write a letter of admonishment to the Guardian. “I must put history right,” she wrote, explaining that a poster issued by the paper was incorrect. It contained, she noted, the common misconception that Trevor McDonald was the first Black person to report the news on British TV after he joined ITN in 1973 and that Moira Stuart, on BBC News from 1981, was the first Black woman. In fact, said Blake-Hannah – an author, film-maker and former Jamaican senator – in 1968 she was one of three Thames Television on-camera reporters for the current affairs programme Today, presented by Eamonn Andrews. (The BBC had hired a Black trainee reporter, Eric Anthony Abrahams, a few years earlier.)
At the time her appointment made every daily newspaper, bar the Daily Express. Blake-Hannah claims the Express held out only because “they had a rule: no Black people on the front page”. “Shirley Bassey sang regularly and there were comedians, but we were allowed in an entertainment capacity, not as serious news people, delivering serious stories.”

X owner and Donald Trump ally accused of spreading “poison” after he backs jailed activist.
LISTENSHAREFree article usually reserved for subscribers
JANUARY 2, 2025 3:36 PM CETBY NOAH KEATE
LONDON — Elon Musk is facing fierce criticism from British parliamentarians after he called for far-right ringleader Tommy Robinson to be released from prison.
The X owner and key ally of Donald Trump tweeted Thursday morning that authorities should “free Tommy Robinson.”
Robinson, the controversial English Defense League founder whose anti-immigration rallies in the U.K. attract thousands, was jailed for 18 months last October after breaching a court order.
Musk's comments come amid an ongoing feud with the U.K.'s governing Labour Party — and just days after the tech billionaire spoke out in support of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
"Musk's support not just for Tommy Robinson, but also the AfD in Germany, shows just how big a problem he is for democracy as well as the reputation of those who cosy up to him like Nigel Farage and Liz Truss," Labour MP Stella Creasy — whose constituency saw a major counter-demonstration against the far right amid riots last summer — told POLITICO.
Truss, the former British prime minister, has previously expressed support for Musk and said his proposed Department for Government Efficiency, set to feature in Trump's second presidency, was "needed in Britain."
Reform UK Leader Farage meanwhile met Musk at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in December and has talked up the prospect of receiving a donation from him. Reform — which has been at pains to distance itself from the far right as it takes on Labour and the Conservatives — declined to comment on Musk's latest statements Thursday.
Robinson was imprisoned last year after he admitted to breaching a court order relating to false claims about a Syrian schoolboy he had made in a documentary. Musk on Thursday approvingly shared the documentary to his hundreds of millions of followers on X.
A second Labour MP, granted anonymity to speak candidly, called Musk's language "dangerous," warning that "at a time when communities need to come and work together, we have someone with a lot of influence sowing divisions and spreading hate."

Culture is the characteristics and knowledge of a particular group of people, encompassing language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts.
The Center for Advanced Research on Language Acquisition goes a step further, defining culture as shared patterns of behaviors and interactions, cognitive constructs and understanding that are learned by socialization. Thus, culture can be seen as the growth of a group identity fostered by social patterns unique to the group.
"Culture encompasses religion, food, what we wear, how we wear it, our language, marriage, music, what we believe is right or wrong, how we sit at the table, how we greet visitors, how we behave with loved ones and a million other things," Cristina De Rossi, an anthropologist at Barnet and Southgate College in
By the end of 1865 the "Governor Eyre Case" had become the subject of widespread national debate. In January 1866, a Royal Commission was sent to investigate the events. Governor Eyre was suspended and recalled to England and eventually dismissed. The national government changed that of Jamaica. The House of Assembly resigned its charter, and Jamaica was made a Crown Colony, governed directly by Britain.[9]
The "Eyre Controversy" turned into a long and increasingly public issue, dividing well-known figures of the day. It may have contributed to the fall of the government.

BBC Radio 2Trevor Nelson's Rhythm Nation
As a pioneer in the urban music scene, he set up his Madhatter Soul Sound System in the 80s. Nelson started his broadcasting career on the fledgling London's Kiss FM, originally a pirate radio station. Nelson helped the station become legal and gain a licence in 1990. Nelson was both a daytime DJ and director. In 1996, Nelson moved to BBC Radio 1 to present the first ever national R 'n' B show, The Rhythm Nation[1] and a year later began the first ever R&B Chart Show on a Saturday afternoon. Nelson stayed at Radio 1 until 2013.
From 2007 Nelson presented the Breakfast Show on the newly launched BBC Radio 1Xtra and in 2008 launched a weekly soul show on BBC Radio 2 whilst also presenting shows on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 1Xtra. July 2019 Trevor Nelson’s Rhythm Nation began broadcasting four nights a week on BBC Radio 2, replacing his Wednesday evening soul show.
Nelson currently broadcasts across two radio networks. Trevor’s Soul Nation airs Mon-Thurs 10pm-12am on BBC R2. He also has a weekly Sunday show on BBC R1 Xtra from 11am-1pm. He previously presented weekdays, Monday to Friday 10:00am until 13:00 show on BBC Radio 1Xtra between 2008 and 2016.
In November 2016 it was announced that Nelson would be leaving his weekday 10 am – 1 pm show on 1Xtra[3] and moving to Saturday and Sundays 4 – 7 pm, showcasing the best in new and old R&B music, with DJ Ace taking over his slot. He had held this slot since 2011 after leaving the 1Xtra breakfast show which he presented with Gemma Cairney and previously Zena McNally.
In 2010 he was awarded with the special gold lifetime achievement award for his services to broadcasting, at the Sony Radio Academy Awards.
On 21 March 2017 he was a presenter for Sara Cox's Red Nose Day danceathon from 2 am to 5 am.

Mary J. BligeNeed You More (feat. Jadakiss)
sponsored
Mary Jane Blige[1][17] was born on January 11, 1971, at Fordham Hospital in the Bronx, New York City, to nurse Cora and jazz musician Thomas Blige. She has an older sister, LaTonya Blige-DaCosta, a younger half-brother, Bruce Miller, and a younger half-sister, Jonquell, both from a relationship Blige's mother had with another man after divorcing her first husband.[18][19]
Blige spent her early childhood in Richmond Hill, Georgia,[20][6] where she sang in a Pentecostal church.[21] She and her family later moved back to New York and resided in the Schlobohm Housing Projects, located in Yonkers.[22] The family subsisted on her mother's earnings as a nurse after her father left the family in the mid-1970s.[23] Her father was a Vietnam War veteran who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and alcoholism.[22]
At age five, she was molested by a family friend; as a teenager she endured years of sexual harassment from her peers.[24] She would eventually turn to alcohol, drugs and promiscuous sex to try to numb the pain.[25] Blige dropped out of high school in her junior year.[26]
Influenced by the music of Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan and Gladys Knight,[27][28]she began pursuing a musical career. Blige spent a short time in a Yonkers band named Pride with band drummer Eddie D'Aprile. In early 1988, she recorded an impromptu cover of Anita Baker's "Caught Up in the Rapture" at a recording booth in the Galleria Mall in White Plains, New York. Her mother's boyfriend at the time later played the cassette for Jeff Redd, a recording artist and A&R runner for Uptown Records.[18] Redd sent it to the president and CEO of the label, Andre Harrell. Harrell met with Blige, and in 1989 at the age of 18, she was signed to the label as a backup vocalist for artists such as Father MC,[29] becoming the company's youngest and first female artist.[21]

Raised in extremely religious Pentecostal families, K-Ci and JoJo – then known as Little Cedric & the Hailey Singers – originally performed and recorded as a gospelgroup, releasing three albums; Jesus Saves, I'm Alright Now, and God's Blessings.[11][12] K-Ci would later draw comparisons to Michael Jackson during his gospel career.[13] Separately, Mr. Dalvin and DeVanté Swing performed and toured in their own family's gospel group called the Degrate Delegation. The studio is where the duos later made acquaintances through relationships the members were in at the time. In a 2011 interview, Dalvin stated, "there was this girl gospel group called UNITY and then the Don DeGrate Delegation, which Devanté and I played in. So we met some of the girls from UNITY and [one] was dating K-Ci before we even met [and she] would always tell us that we need to meet K-Ci and JoJo."[14] A short time after meeting, the brothers started living together after leaving their families to pursue musical careers.[15]
At 16, DeVanté Swing traveled to Minneapolis, hoping to visit Paisley Park in order to audition to Prince.[16][17] Swing would later say, "I was up at Paisley Park every day begging for a job, asking people to listen to my tape. The receptionist kept saying she couldn't help me".[18] The rejection motivated Swing to relocate back to North Carolina, and work to improve his songwriting and production skills.[19] Upon arriving, Swing continued to record with the group's additional members, eventually forming Jodeci, and began work on a demo tape to present to label executives. The name Jodeci is an abbreviation of all the members names. "Jo" comes from JoJo, "De" comes from the last name of the DeGrate brothers, and Ci comes from K-Ci.

The roots of lovers rock lie in the last days of the rocksteady era and early days of reggae, with Jamaican and American singers such as Ken Boothe, Johnny Nash and John Holt enjoying international hits with versions of well-known love songs.[2]
A style suited to the London reggae scene, lovers rock represented an apolitical counterpoint to the conscious Rastafarian sound dominant in Jamaica at the time, a continuation of the soulful and commonly love-themed rocksteady style, based on singers like Alton Ellis, who were not very optimistic about the rise of Rastafarian reggae.[1] It combined the smooth soul sounds of Chicago and Philadelphia soulwith rocksteady and reggae bassline rhythms.[3][4] Rooted in the sound systems of South London, the style had particular appeal amongst women and produced many female stars including Carroll Thompson. Louisa Mark was aged 14 when she had a major lovers rock hit with her version of Robert Parker's "Caught You in a Lie" in 1975. This spawned the distinctive young girl female sound associated with early lovers rock.
