Evidence of yet another LGBT/Pride charity lacking financial management skills and possibly worse. @LGBTSheffield has over the years provided Pride events and LGBT network/drop-ins with an annual Pinknic, its flagship event.

In the 3 years from 2021, @LGBTSheffield received a regular grant from @sheffcouncil but spent less than it brought in, amassing reserves of £30,951.

@LGBTSheffield have just published long overdue accounts for 2024 - a bumper year showing an income of £53,770. Shockingly, standard outgoings are dwarfed by ‘loss of misappropriated funds’ of £40,640.

Do you honestly think...someone is out for your best interests? Are you folks really this blind and gullible?
You asked for peace, protection for your children, justice for the victims and those responsible held accountable. You're getting nothing you need or want and everything you don't.
What you received is this...and if you think you have a side in all of this, you do...it's the side of a sleeping slave who thought the good guys......were actually the good guys.
All they know is violence, power, war and control. You're like squirrels; Look a hearing. Look maybe no taxes. Look Olympics. Look space.
I'm not sure anymore that anyone is coming to save y'all. You might just be on your own. Although they will be trotting out their version of Jesus coming back soon. So, there's that. Amen. 🙏

You've been blocking spam calls wrong this entire time.
Every time you decline, you confirm your number is active.
The calls multiply.
Here's what actually works:

Here's what actually works:
First, understand why you're targeted.
When you sign up for anything online, your number gets sold to "data brokers."
They package it with your location, age, income, and sell it to call centers.
Each call confirms you're real.
The cycle intensifies.

Step 1: Register with the National Do Not Call Registry.
Go to DoNotCall dot gov (yes, it's real).
Enter your number. It's free. Government-backed.
Within 31 days, legitimate telemarketers must stop calling you.
But scammers ignore this.

Footage of an Iranian ballistic missile slamming into the headquarters of the US Navy's 5th Fleet at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Bahrain earlier today.

Smoke already rising from the base before the impact seen in the video, confirms multiple hits.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:
"My brothers and sisters, citizens of Israel, a short while ago, Israel and the United States embarked on an operation to remove the existential threat posed by the terrorist regime in Iran.

I thank our great friend, President @realDonaldTrump , for his historic leadership.
For 47 years, the Ayatollah regime has called for 'Death to Israel' and 'Death to America.' It has spilled our blood, murdered many Americans, and massacred its own people.

This murderous terrorist regime must not be allowed to arm itself with nuclear weapons that would enable it to threaten all of humanity.
Our joint action will create the conditions for the brave Iranian people to take their destiny into their own hands.

The Allies' Worst Naval Defeat: The Battles of the Java Sea and Sunda Strait
The 27th of February 1942 marked the beginning of a series of devastating defeats suffered by the Allied naval forces in Southeast Asia, tasked with defending Australia and the Dutch East Indies. It began when Rear-Admiral Karel Doorman’s squadron attempted to intercept the Japanese invasion force of Java, only to be outmatched by its superior escort.
The 27th of February 1942 marked the beginning of a series of devastating defeats suffered by the Allied naval forces in Southeast Asia, tasked with defending Australia and the Dutch East Indies. It began when Rear-Admiral Karel Doorman’s squadron attempted to intercept the Japanese invasion force of Java, only to be outmatched by its superior escort.
In early 1942, Japanese forces swept swiftly through Southeast Asia, driving their invasion of the Dutch East Indies with striking speed. Advancing from their bases in Palau, they overran key positions in Sarawak, the southern Philippines, eastern Borneo, and northern Celebes. Strong naval escorts and air cover from newly captured airfields shielded troop convoys as they pushed south through the Makassar Strait into the Molucca Sea.
Facing them was a modest and largely outdated Allied naval force composed of Dutch, American, British, and Australian vessels, initially commanded by U.S. Admiral Thomas C. Hart under the ABDA command structure, the force's command was later entrusted to the Dutch Rear Admiral Karel Doorman.
This moment -- our declaration of war with Iran tonight to achieve regime change -- reminds me of the beginning of our invasion of Iraq in 2003, but with 4 big differences. THREAD 1/
First, Bush and team tried to convince the UN Security Council to support military intervention. Trump did not try. 2/
Second, Bush obtained support from the US Senate for the invasion. 77 senators voted for the use of force; 23 voted no. Trump did not even try to get a vote of support. 3/
Trump: To Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, military, and police, I say tonight: you must lay down your weapons and have complete immunity.

Bloomberg: "China is balancing productivity gains from AI with labor stability, as automation could displace workers and trigger an economic spiral."
I think this whole AI-will-cause-unemployment argument is very confused.

Getting workers to become more productive doesn't cause workers to be fired. In fact that's the only way to make them richer.
What really matters is whether or not wage growth for the overall economy keeps pace with productivity gains.

If they don't, growth in production will outstrip growth in consumption, and while this can temporarily be resolved by rising household debt, ultimately it means that production will be reduced and unemployment rise.

Israel said it launched a pre-emptive attack against Iran, pushing the Middle East into a renewed military confrontation and further dimming hopes for a diplomatic solution to Tehran's long-running nuclear dispute with the West reut.rs/3N9KHGD

Maruti has never designed a single engine in forty years. Tata's "indigenous" Revotron was optimised by Austria. Mahindra's new electric SUVs run on BYD cells and Valeo powertrains.
After seven decades, India's $118 billion auto industry still rents the technology at its core — and the EV transition is reproducing the same pattern with different suppliers.

Over five years, Maruti remitted 46 per cent of its pre-tax profits to Suzuki as royalty. Per-car royalty payments grew four times faster than car prices over fifteen years.
At every level — national R&D spending, OEM investment, supplier intensity, and patent output — the gap between India and its global peers is not incremental but structural, often measured in orders of magnitude.
