Nicola Bulley police in 'victim-blaming' storm after menopause and alcohol revelation
Police has been accused of “victim blaming” after releasing details of missing mum Nicola Bulley's issues with alcohol and menopause.Nicola, 45, was walking her dog when she went missing on Friday, January 27, near the River Wyre in Lancashire.She had dropped her children off at school that morning before taking the family pup, Willow, on a walk.READ MORE: Nicola Bulley's councillors received 'offensive mystery calls' about her disappearanceThe mum, whose phone was found at the scene of her disappearance and logged into a work conference on Teams, is believed to have approached the river – the search has now stretched to as far as Morecambe and Fleetwood areas.But in a bizarre press conference yesterday (February 15) – which featured Lancashire Police telling everyone to “stop speculating” while hitting out at the media – Superintendent Rebecca Smith divulged another piece of information previously kept hidden from the public.She said that the search for Nicola was made a priority because she was classed as “high risk”.However, when pressed by a myriad of journalists as to what that means, she refused to go into detail.Yet, just a few hours later it was made public that she had been dealing with alcohol issues, as well as going through menopause.The decision to release this information to the public after more than 20 days of searching has been slammed by many, including Conservative MP Alicia Kearns.She said: “I am deeply uncomfortable with the police releasing Nicola Bulley's so-called 'vulnerabilities' on menopause and alcohol.“I struggle to ascertain how this will assist Police in their search and investigations.“I do see how it would assist those wishing to victim-blame or diminish.”And LBC host Nick Ferrari said

World leaders urged to stop shooting down UFOs until we know where they're from
UFOs until they know where they have come from, one of Britain’s top ex air chiefs has said.Air Chief Marshal Sir Michael Graydon suggested blasting suspicious craft to smithereens with fighter jets was not the best way to determine their origin.He spoke out after the US Government was accused of a "cover-up" following the shooting down of three UFOs in three days over the US. READ MORE: Nicola Bulley police search caravan site close to bench where phone was found Asked if the craft could be linked to extraterrestrials US Air Force General Glen VanHerck said he had not "ruled out anything".White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre then tried to reassure the "American people" by saying there was "no indication" of "aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent takedowns".But US defence chiefs have claimed they still had not recovered the wreckage and had no idea what the UFOs were.Sir Michael, 84, a former Chief of the Air Staff who was commander in chief of RAF Strike Command during the 1990 Gulf War, suggested restraint should more craft be spotted.“Until we know what’s actually in them they’re an irritation, certainly, and it’s highly likely it’s got some spy equipment on it,’’ he told LBC Radio.“But it would be very useful, wouldn’t it, to find out what’s in it before we get our knickers to much in the twist on that?’’Asked if similar vessels should be taken out if they entered UK airspace he replied: “Probably the most likely is let it drift out towards sea and then shoot it down there.“But I go back to what I said to start with - it would be very useful to find out what’s actually in them before we get too excited.’’The triple take-downs came after US pilots downed a Chinese spy balloon flying at
