British Prime Minister Theresa May wins a no confidence vote by 19 votes. Just yesterday, she lost a vote in Parliament on the #Brexit vote. This woman has many lives, she keeps clinging on to power even when she looks set to lose it. #IronLady

.@Abbas_Gullet tells @KoinangeJeff that the death toll from #RiversideAttack could change. Also spoke of the bodies of 4 terrorists. Was that the total number of attackers? Others have reported there may have been up to 6 of them.

BTW, has everyone who was at the scene of #RiversideAttack been accounted for?

retweet
