A 5'8" history enthusiast has been spotted around the Manchester area, soliciting locals for reasons. If you happen to see him, call the police and let them know that 'e really needs a loicense to be walking around being that sexy. @dubs you're under suspicion of the law 😉 for being a cutie

Don't get me wrong. It's really sad that this person, who's existence I learned of today, has clearly lived a troubled life and died when he was heavily intoxicated and in no mind to make decisions for himself. That's terrible. It was super weird walking home and seeing the flags at half mast. I used to have a job where part of it was to raise and lower the flags and the only time I can remember putting it at half mast, it was the day of Sandy Hook. The prime minister, who apparently is a Sir because he was knighted by the King or Queen at some point, has released a public statement and the filming of Britain's got talent has been halted until further notice.

That said, I think Harry Styles is super talented and this is one of my favorite unreleased songs, which he wrote about Taylor Swift:

And unlike Liam, his One Direction isn't down.

Police are seizing cars from men for catcalling women out jogging who were undercover female officers in disguise in a crackdown on harassment.

Four cars were taken away by officers as part of an initiative to help women feel safer when out exercising, after a survey found 60 per cent of women feel intimidated when they go for a run.

West Yorkshire Police, in partnership with other bodies, has undercover female police officers posing as runners.

The hope is to make men 'think twice' about cat calling and making inappropriate comments to exercising women, especially from cars as they drive past.

The council said the JogOn initiative had run six operations since March to catch men, and said it is 'clear' that many don't even think the behaviour counts as harassment.

One of the men who was stopped even tried to give the excuse that he was 'encouraging the females to run'.

Many women feeling scared and intimidated and seek out alternative running routes or changing the times they go out to avoid cat calling, offensive comments and physical harassment.

Runners said they had come to accept it as the norm and did not report it to the police, as they did not feel it would be taken seriously or that no action would be taken.

The police have sent female officers out in plain clothes to run or jog in 'hotspot' areas.

Bradford Council can also enforce its Public Space Protection Order which bans the anti-social use of vehicles and includes 'shouting, swearing at, or abusing, threatening or intimidating another person – including using sexual language or making sexual suggestions' from a vehicle.

Offenders can receive a Fixed Penalty Notice or a £1,000 fine.

When the police can seize your vehicle:

The police can seize a vehicle if they think it's being used in a way that causes alarm, harassment or distress, for example careless or inconsiderate driving.

They can also seize a vehicle if they think it's being driven by someone who does not have a proper licence or insurance, is dangerously, illegally or obstructively parked or is broken-down or abandoned.

If your vehicle is seized there's a 'release fee' of up to £200 plus a storage fee of £20 for every day or part day.

King Arthur has been included in a local council's LGBTQ+ history timeline because he was once mentioned to have wore women's clothing in folklore.

The Welsh ruler, frequently mentioned in the Welsh mythological book The Mabinogion, is most renowned for his bid to find the Holy Grail.

However in a recent LGBTQ+ timeline as part of work to celebrate 'local stories of sexual orientation and gender identity', Denbighshire County Council included the folk hero because 'he wore women's clothing'.

There are no stories to suggest King Arthur was LGBTQ+, with his most famed stories centering around his marriage to Guinevere.

Referencing the legend, the timeline's first entry says that Arthur had dressed in women's clothes in order to visit a woman in the market town of Ruthin.

But the ruler was recognized by his rival Huail ap Caw, who mocked Arthur's injured knee as he danced in women's attire in a bid to get close to a love interest.

Following Huail's lack of tact, Arthur summoned him to court where he bitterly sentenced him to death.

The King took his arch nemesis back to Ruthin, where he mercilessly cut off his head on a stone now known in the market town as Maen Huail.

The earliest references to King Arthur say he was a successful 'dux bellorum', or warlord.

Despite no definitive mention of Arthur's sexual persuasion, he has still been included in Denbighshire council's LGBTQ+ timeline.

The timeline was created as a result of Welsh Government commissioned training in LGBTQ+ Language and History for local libraries, museums, and archives.

The training was done in a bid to raise 'awareness and understanding' on Wales' diverse population.

The Action Plan created by the Welsh government hopes to tackle inequalities experienced by LGBTQ+ peoples and challenge discrimination.

It stated that: 'Welsh LGBTQ+ history, culture, and heritage in Wales has contributed to our legacy and experiences as a nation and these stories need to be told.'

An outcome of this training has also meant that every county in Wales is to create a timeline on their respective LGBTQ+ history.

It comes after a town hit out at a Labour councillors for deciding to spend public money hiring a controversial drag queen for children's story time.

More than 1,100 residents signed a petition protesting about Aida H Dee's Drag Queen Story Hour, due to take place during Pride celebrations in 2023.

Locals in Brecon, South Wales, were angered at a decision by the town council to spend £300 hiring Aida, played by Sab Samuel, 28 .

The performer and children's author had been accused of being friends with late paedophile drag queen Darren Moore, who was sentenced to three years' imprisonment in 1999 after being convicted of raping a boy under 16, while himself a teenager.

Mr Samuel said he is friends with Moore's husband, also called Darren Moore, and raised money to help him following Moore's death, aged 39, in January 2023.

Brecon Town Council said at the time: 'Drag Queen Story Hour has been hosted across the UK and has received very positive feedback from both parents and children.

'The performer has provided four years' worth of DBS (disclosure and barring service) history, has completed a risk assessment in relation to their performance and has insurance in place.'

Denbighshire County Council has been contacted for comment.

There is only one surviving pilot who participated in the Battle of Britain left.

John Hemingway turned 105 in July and was shot down four times during WWII.

His generation will fade into history soon. Let us remember all the wisdom they can impart.https://t.co/bMTUfx14BP pic.twitter.com/TpmAgAsisi

Hezbollah is a proscribed terrorist organisation. Promoting it in Britain is a criminal offence.

Extremism has no place on Britain’s streets. The police have our support in pursuing those breaking the law today.
