DISCLAIMER: DISTRESSING IMAGES

Here we see a Russian plane firing a missile into a well populated residential area!

To the brainwashed people of Russia that defend Putins actions, we say to you, open your eyes and see the truth for what it is.

This is nothing short of an territorial invasion and war against the Ukranian people!

Putins last days as Russian leader must be numbered and he must be made to know as much!

RUSSIAN INVASION

In light of what we are all seeing today in regards to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, do you think the UK and other ally nations are doing enough to protect and support the Ukrainian people?

We've heard this afternoon that the UK have placed troops in strategic positions of neighbouring countries from 45 Commando and other regiments. Those troops are ready to act as and when they're ordered to do so!

We've heard a lot of talking about economic and financial sanctions but sanctions won't stop missiles, bullets and artilary shells from striking innocent Ukranians.

Tell us what you think and what you'd like to see from the UK and other allies of Ukraine.

A grieving daughter was left shocked after council workers dumped a huge pile of earth on her father's grave.

Siobhan Smart was visiting her father's unmarked grave at Kingsdown Crematorium in Swindon on his birthday when she discovered the 4ft pile of soil.

The family said the council "should be ashamed to disrespect somebody's resting place like this".

Swindon Borough Council apologised but said the soil was from a neighbouring plot and it was a "standard practice".

Ms Smart, who lost her father, Andrew Kill, to bowel cancer five years ago, was visiting the crematorium on 7 December, when she discovered gravediggers had dumped earth over his grave.

"I went to take things there to make my dad's grave look presentable over Christmas," she said.

"And the digger man ran up to us and said 'sorry were you visiting that grave?'."

"I asked why he didn’t use the other empty pitches instead, out of respect."

She said the mound of earth that had been piled up on her father's grave was "that big" it was shocking.

"I wasn’t given any notice," she said.

"They should inform families, before they travel all the way to see their loved ones and experience what I did."

A spokesman for the council said boards are placed on top of graves to protect them when soil is being moved.

"We completely understand it can be distressing for relatives when soil is placed on neighbouring graves in this way," he said.

"We know it can appear unsightly but it is standard practice in working cemeteries and is set out in our cemetery regulations."

He added: "We are sorry to hear about the offence caused to Mr and Mrs Smart and we will ensure we follow up their complaint."

They're hoping an extra day off will give their staff a much needed rest which they will undoubtedly appreciate.

Do you work in retail?

We'd love to hear how much time off you'll have over Christmas and what you'll do with it.

A man who held a knife to a woman’s throat and threatened to kill a police officer before attempting to hijack a car has been jailed for six years.

James Tallon, of no fixed address, carried out the series of offences as he attempted to evade arrest for other offences.

On 14 December last year in Specsavers in Frome he grabbed a woman from behind and threatened her with a knife when officers came into the store. Using the woman as a shield, he managed to flee via a fire escape as officers deployed Tasers to no effect.

Shortly after, the 28-year-old was tackled to the ground by a member of security staff and a struggle ensued. Police officers deployed PAVA spray but Tallon managed to run off. He then tried to hjack a car containing two young children, demanding their mother get out the vehicle. The woman’s partner, who was in the passenger seat at the time, intervened and Tallon once again fled.

Concerted efforts were made by officers throughout the night and following day to arrest Tallon and he was eventually detained on 16 December.

An officer recognised him driving a vehicle and moved his police car to block it – resulting in him running off once more. He again resisted arrest, violently struggling with the officer before a colleague came to his assistance.

Following a trial at Taunton Crown Court last week he was convicted of false imprisonment, threats to kill a police officer, affray, possession of a bladed article and assault by beating. He was sentenced to six years in prison with an extended four years on licence.

Detective Constable George Pettingell said: “While thankfully no one was seriously injured as a result of Tallon’s violent behaviour, the events of 14 December will undoubtedly stay with all those involved for some time to come. I’d like to praise the victims for the bravery they’ve shown and thank them for supporting the prosecution of this dangerous man. The public are much safer with Tallon behind bars.”

Tonight at 7.00pm, why not join the Cathedral Choir, as churches and choirs across the city provide music for a CAROLS FOR BRISTOL service.

This has been one of the most challenging years in our nation’s living memory and for some, unbearably so.

In any other year, thousands of people would make their way into churches across Bristol, to sing their favourite carols and hear the timeless story of Christmas. Sadly this year, that will not be possible.

Instead, some churches in Bristol are coming together to create an online service namely CAROLS for BRISTOL.

With contributors including: Pat Lam, City Primary Schools, Charities, Agencies and Individuals serving Bristol, Lady Nade & Elles Bailey, NHS Staff from the BRI and Southmead, Bristol Cathedral Choir.

A major cannabis-growing factory, believed to be worth more than £270,000, has been discovered by police at a house in Swindon.

The discovery was made yesterday after officers were tipped off to suspicious activity at Wheeler Avenue by an electrician working on a neighbouring house, he reported an anomaly with the amount of electricity being drawn by the property which was 24 times the amount of a normal household.

Officers searched the suspect house and found the entire top floor including the attic, was full to the brim of mature cannabis plants ready to be harvested.

Police are appealing for information to find those responsible for the crop.

Wiltshire's PC Adam Tape, from Swindon's community policing team, said: "This is a significant find of around 360 large mature cannabis plants, and a significant drugs operation that is no more.

He continued "Quite often criminals 'doctor' the amount of electricity going into a property to enable these factories to operate. This can have potentially fatal consequences for neighbouring homes, should something go wrong. We will always robustly pursue criminals who produce and distribute drugs on our streets.

"We'd like to thank the electrician for his actions and reporting his suspicions, solid intelligence is key to beating these criminals. Anyone who has information should call 101 and quote crime reference 54200122507.
People can also speak anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."

With covid vaccination rates increasing amongst the elderly and to be rolled out to everyone next year, how would you feel if you were asked to carry around a Covid card as proof of vaccination?

Well that may be a possibility according to some expert sources.

It is not yet known whether entry into mass indoor gatherings will require a vaccination card or not but that certainly seems to be a possibility in the near future, even if that's a short term measure until Covid-19 reaches miniscule infection rates.

Would you pay more council tax to support Avon and Somerset Police?

PCC Sue Mountstevens is encouraging local people to fill out our survey to share your opinion on an increase in the policing part of the council tax.

She said: "I know that any increase in household bills is felt by local people and after this extraordinary year, an increase in any bills is an even bigger ask."

"A 6.6% increase on the police funding part of council tax would cost a band D household just £15 per year, or £1.25 per month" she continued.

Have your say by taking part in the short survey: http://ow.ly/q7EC50CFGls
