Delivery van 'stuck on deadliest mudflat footpath'

15 February 2026

A delivery van appeared to be stuck on mudflats, which locals described as the "deadliest footpath in Britain".

HM Coastguard Southend said it was called out to reports on Sunday of an Amazon delivery vehicle on The Broomway, at Great Wakering, Essex, after the driver had been following a GPS route to Foulness Island.

Man's blue skin A&E panic was just bed sheet dye

4 hours ago

A man was rushed to hospital after his skin turned blue - only for medics to discover it was dye from his new bed sheets.

Tommy Lynch, from Derbyshire, said he had woken from a long sleep in the gifted navy-coloured bedding looking like "an Avatar", in reference to the blue beings from the blockbuster film.

A friend convinced him to head to hospital where concerned emergency ward staff put him on oxygen - but the penny dropped when a medic rubbed his arm with a swab that turned blue.

The 42-year-old said: "I was mortified but they said I'd given them a good laugh. They don't usually have funny stories in A&E."

MAGA Men Humiliated After Being Duped by AI Foot Fetish Model

Thu, March 12, 2026 at 4:33 PM GMT

An AI-generated “soldier” has apparently swindled scores of MAGA men.

The account, “jessicaa.foster,” has amassed 1 million followers on Instagram, funneling massive engagement from fake photos with President Donald Trump and MAGA-friendly captions to an OnlyFans account selling photos of feet, Fast Company and Marca have discovered.

While the Instagram photos appear hyper-realistic, aside from incorrect American flags and bizarre U.S. Army casual wear, there are several telltale signs that Jessica is very much not real.

The supposed everyday soldier, whose account began posting in November, has “met” Trump at least six times this year. She may even be brokering peace in Eastern Europe, snapping “selfies” with Trump and Russia’s Vladimir Putin, as well as with Trump and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky.

Trump administration orders dismantling of the U.S. Forest Service
https://www.hatchmag.com/articles/trump ... ce/7716263

"Late Tuesday afternoon, with the subtlety of a wrecking ball and the morality of a foreclosure notice, the Trump administration announced the most devastating attack on the U.S. Forest Service in the agency’s 121-year history. Not a budget cut. Not a policy shift. Not a “reorganization.” An execution.
They’re ripping the headquarters out of Washington and shipping it to Salt Lake City, Utah — the beating heart of the anti-public-lands movement in America. They’re shuttering every single one of the ten regional offices that have governed this agency since Gifford Pinchot built the system over a century ago — and with them, the career professionals who spent entire lifetimes earning the expertise and the authority to push back when politicians came calling with bad ideas and worse motives. They’re destroying more than fifty research facilities across thirty-one states, labs that house decades of irreplaceable long-term science, the kind you literally cannot restart once it’s gone. And they’re replacing all of it — the offices, the scientists, the institutional knowledge, the professional independence — with fifteen political appointees called “state directors,” embedded in state capitals alongside the very governors, legislators, and industry lobbyists who have spent their careers demanding that the Forest Service log more, protect less, and get out of the way."

Chimpanzees in Uganda locked in vicious 'civil war', say researchers

The world's largest known group of wild chimpanzees has split and been locked in a vicious "civil war" for the last eight years, according to researchers.

It is not clear exactly why the once close-knit community of Ngogo chimpanzees at Uganda's Kibale National Park are at loggerheads, but since 2018 the scientists have recorded 24 killings, including 17 infants.
"These were chimps that would hold hands," lead author Aaron Sandel said. "Now they're trying to kill each other."
