This one gets me every Remembrance Day since 2019. This is Fin Doherty. When he was 6 in 2008, his brother, Jeff a paratrooper, was killed in a Taliban ambush. Young Fin was determined to be a paratrooper like his brother. He did just that and in 2019 earned his red beret. His brother’s red beret was formally handed to him by Sgt Major Adam Ireland who had fought along side Fin’s brother. ❤️💔

Katherine Ryan didn't need a jury. She revealed Russell Brand's true nature a while ago.

Why are you making a career of defending rapists? First Trump then Brand? Now doubling down? Well I guess working for GB News you've let all your moral standards lapse.

I’m not even going to read it but I am going to tell you I am disgusted by your defence of a rapist……. Whilst men like me try to hold our friends to decency towards women it sickens me that some women will defend such behaviour and by doing so you embolden rapists. Aged 22 in the forces I was in Cyprus on a night out. On the way home the two lads I was with decided they wanted to rape a young women leaving work in a hotel near Limassol. They looked to me to see if I was in….that young women never knew what could have been had I not been there and my two ‘friends’ got a piece of my mind and understood why I never went out with them again. Thank fuck my mum taught me right from wrong and I didn’t end up with someone like you for my mum. You’re a disgrace….the man has been found guilty and still you choose his side over his victims. Before I go you’re not helping your cause with that last sentence…. I don’t need five seconds to know rape is wrong or dismiss a rapists victims as attention seekers

Blatant breaking of Section Five (Due Impartiality) of @Ofcom's broadcasting code here. More evidence this gutter trash TV channel should be thrown off air. #GBNews @beverleyturner #BeverleyTurner

Greens - they're the only ones in which such behaviour might be considered a charming peccadillo

Absolutely moronic and sociopathic. Idiotic. Pitiful. Irresponsible. Disrespectful . I had a debate with her at a friend’s party a couple of years ago where I told her about my friend’s firsthand experience with Russell. And she dismissed it and said there’s no evidence - that he’s not being convicted of anything and it’s a witch hunt. And now he has been convicted, apparently it’s still a witch hunt.
If you are genuinely curious and want to think beyond the click-bait headlines ( I realise that will be a stretch for some of you) feel free to read what I wrote 3 years ago. 👇 Warning: it will require more than 5 seconds of your attention. gbnews.com/opinion/russell-b…

📍🇮🇪 Cashel. Tipperary. Ireland. Welcome to The Cashel Palace Hotel one of the most beautiful hotels in Ireland. The art work around the building is stunning, it’s a beautiful relaxing vibe! 💚🤩 I’m looking forward to having a cracking steak in The Bishop’s Buttery tonight.

The great Paul Whitehouse is 68 years old today, which means I am obliged to post this (again!) - arguably the most majestically random but brilliant comedy sketch committed to celluloid for at least the last, what, forty, forty five years? Yes, forty, forty five years. Happy birthday Paul 🤘

Forget all the huge supermarkets and their mawkish Christmas adverts, this was the best Christmas advert - Enniskillen pub Charlie's put out this advert back in 2023. It’s brilliant.

Kemi predicted this, two years ago.
Labour is on track to deliver fewer homes this parliament than the Conservatives in a setback for Angela Rayner, the Housing Secretary. A total of 1.14 million homes are expected to be added to Britain’s housing stock in the five years of this parliament, according to fresh forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) 🔗 telegraph.co.uk/business/202…

Sabrina Carpenter has shared a text message she received from Harry Styles following their breakup, and things are already getting messy between the two. 👀💔

Make sure to refuse treatment from any "foreign" doctors and nurses and you probably won't need to worry about it for long

I agree. I'd much rather you're left to wallow in your own piss and shit every day, you nasty little cunt.

Totally agree. It’s possibly the worst advert I’ve ever seen for anything. Would actively dissuade me from going to @JohnLewisRetail - what on earth were they thinking?
I can’t express how much I hate this John Lewis advert. Spoilt entitled, rude and overindulged children. Useless, weak parents. Terrible mauling of the Rolling Stones. Yet again ANOTHER cliched out-of-touch grandparent we are all supposed to roll our eyes at. Urgh. It’s as bad as that ‘get consent to hug your grandkids’ one. mol.im/a/16259695

Russell Brand says all his friends have abandoned him and he can't find one person who's prepared to provide a character witness statement in Court. Maybe he could ask his old mate Bob Geldof...? 🤔 😂 #RussellBrand #WhataCunt
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
For context; this happened at the NME 2006 Awards. Earlier that year Russell Brand had "dated" Bob Geldof's daughter Peaches. Peaches was 16 at the time. Russell Brand was 31. nme.com/nme-awards/awa… yahoo.com/entertainment/…
