  1. I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw…The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967716638472 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/-~«««~-♡~♡~♡~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡♡~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|……..

  2. Curious that the BBC announce this simultaneously with an announcement that Labour are taking money from vulnerable pensioners? Coincidence? I think not…

  3. In my personal opinion we need very long sentences for offenders of CSA which includes images. He's only been charged at this stage. No doubt the trial will be a hot potato for the media.

  4. Savile, Harris, Edwards. Has any media organisation in the world done more to endlessly enrich and promote perverts and paedophiles than the BBC? And even after it emerged Edwards was DMIng teenage boys, they carried on paying him 440k a year and gave him a 40k pay rise!!

  5. Former BBC News presenter Huw Edwards has been charged with three counts of making indecent images of children, London’s Metropolitan Police said Monday.

    The charges related to images allegedly shared on WhatsApp, a police spokesperson said.

    Police charged Edwards, a former anchor of the BBC’s News at Ten bulletin, last month, the statement said. He was arrested in November last year, police revealed.

    “The offences, which are alleged to have taken place between December 2020 and April 2022, relate to images shared on a WhatsApp chat,” the statement said.

    “Edwards was arrested on November 8 2023. He was charged on Wednesday June 26 following authorization from the Crown Prosecution Service.”

    Edwards is accused of having six category A images – the most serious classification in English law – 12 category B pictures and 19 category C photographs on WhatsApp. If found guilty, he could be jailed for up to 10 years.

    The 62-year-old is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London on Wednesday, police said, reminding media and members of the public not to publish information on social media or elsewhere that could prejudice future court proceedings.

    Edwards stepped down from his role at the BBC in late April after a 40-year career during which he became one of the most recognized faces in British television news.

    The BBC’s annual report, published last week, revealed that Edwards was paid between £475,000 ($610,000) and £479,999 ($616,000) in the period from April 2023 to March 2024. He was the BBC’s third highest-paid employee in that time.

  6. Oh no , how on earth did he get to this? I have been watching since I move to this country and to hear this now? It saddens my heart for the victims and his family as well. Very very sad

  7. Fall from Grace. He is a nice man but as every one of us is not perfect he has also skeletons in his closet. Unfortunately he is in public eyes so there is no way back.

  8. It's been scientifically proven that women use far more frontal lobe than a man, which is one reason why women should be in charge of running this world and not men. Almost every species on this planet is ruled by a Queen. Even in tribes women are often rulers.
