I couldn’t stop thinking about this interview for weeks afterwards.
Aminata Conteh-Biger was just 18 when she was kidnapped for months by rebels during Sierra Leone’s brutal civil war. This story is hard to hear, but so very important. Aminata is one phenomenal woman, hear her
Seriously thinking about doing a hardcore straight talking Podcast... Not with Celebs but with normal everyday folk whose voices aren't heard (builders, nurses, office workers, road workers, people who keep the country functioning etc etc... THOUGHTS???
What I have witnessed today has truly saddened me! Extreme groups running riots, threatening the very safety of the country that I’ve fought and sacrificed for! How are we to bring up our children in this country when you are destroying it! Can’t you thugs see what you’re doing?!
That was some sunset you captured there mate! A talented positive man with a good heart. I’m glad our friendship flourished and that I was someone you could confine in. Your turn to look over me now bro! Luv ya and will miss you sorely… My sincere condolences to
@LiamPayne
I've seen some military parades in my time but WOW what a spectacular, hair raising, proud, one in a life time send off! A great show of force from our Defence & security forces but mainly from the people of the UK.A huge confirmation that there is no nation quite like ours!👑🇬🇧
Just goes to show that all the education in the world can’t buy brains! That’s why they second to Oxford University... It’s a gratitude of respect for our fallen which has ultimately granted you the freedom to blow each other off in your fraternities

I hope you enjoyed the first episode... If you think that was harsh then please don’t worry!!! It gets worse 😆 You’re welcome! Only the best will pass

I am willing to put myself in any given situation to get through to someone balancing on a knife edge because I’ve been there and know the end result! When your demons have no where to go, have you got them shackled ready to use to your advantage?

@SadiqKhan
Wow 😮 How you are allowed to continue to openly drive the wedge in dividing our capital is absolutely shocking and beyond words! Action is now needed to remove you from any further abuse of authority! Your toxic words and beliefs are a danger to our capital and country...
You know you’re a true Brit when you genuinely have a heavy heart for someone you never met or knew personally! What an incredible woman to have such an impact! It was an honour to serve you my Queen and for those who now serve our King, do so with honour and pride!👑💂🏼🎖
After 5 incredible years I’ve decided it’s time to move on from SAS Who Dares Wins UK. Big respect to my fellow DS – it’s been a journey I’ll never forget. Thanks to everyone that took part and made the show what it is. Really excited about the future and what’s coming this year.
I talk alot of integrity, acknowledgment & taking ownership of mistakes. I’m doing that now. I’m in NZ on a secret project & the scale of the UK crisis is hitting me. I am taking down my recent Insta videos. Look forward, keep positive & celebrate those keeping us safe & well💪🏻
Good morning my people! Today you can be shit just don’t be turbo shit😂If you are turbo shit then please don’t worry as you can’t possibly be any shitter & can only progress from there onwards. Always flipping negatives into positives. I hope you’re enjoying the series so far 💪🏼
Absurd that Channel 4 fired
@antmiddleton
for his opinions. He's an SBS special forces war hero, what did they think they were hiring - a shrinking violet choirboy? Such a spineless surrender to the PC Police.
Ant's a top bloke - when he's not strangling me.
Thanks

what a great day this was, reunited with

Just had a delivery driver burst into tears on my doorstep. He was in physical pain & having a moment! I gave him a big hug, had a 2 min chat with him & sent him off with a signed book.
I hope that will see him through his day. Give 2 mins of your day to someone, you never know!
To all my supporters/followers... You’re the reason I do what I do and don’t worry, I’m just warming up... Standby standby!

As Chief Instructor I feel it necessary to clear up a small misunderstanding that keeps presenting itself! There are NO WINNERS on my course, NO FINALISTS... You either PASS the course or you FAIL the course! Thank you for your attention 💪🏼👊🏼
#SASWhoDaresWins
Your body will tell you it’s got nothing left when it’s still miles from breaking. The only true war you’ll ever fight is with your own head. Allow yourself to believe you can do it… and you will 🙌🏻Have an awesome Wednesday. Who’s trained or training today?
#WednesdayMotivation
Posting a message in relation to a tweet I took down over the weekend. I took it down immediately but I wanted to make sure I've been clear and upfront about why I took it down...
We are all allowed a bad day. It’s when it rolls into 2,3,4 days that you must make a concerted effort to break that cycle knowing that there is always another day on the horizon- A FRESH DAY! There is always a spark of positivity, don’t waste it, ignite it and nurture it!💥🔥

To think just over 5 years ago I was preparing to leave prison! Never let anyone define us on our weaknesses and past (we all have them), transform what you can’t change into positive life experiences. My 3 key ingredients for this: POSITIVITY, SELF WORTH & EXTREME HARD WORK!💪🏻👊🏻
A huge thanks to
@RangersFC
for being outstanding hosts today.
When I asked if it would be ok to bring
@antmiddleton
to the training ground they couldn’t have been more helpful.
Great day & video clips coming soon including SG & Ant removing me from the building 😂😂😂😂
You can’t trust your body. It tells you it’s got nothing left when it’s still a hundred miles from breaking. And when it does actually break, it heals. The only true war you’ll ever fight is with your own mind. Have a positive week 👊🏻💪🏻

After flicking through the news and reading about ‘Master bedrooms’ 🤦🏻♂️ and the majority of the nonsense that’s going on in the world. I sat back and for the very first time realised how god dam normal I am 😁... Feel’s good!!! Have a positive Sunday peeps
#normal
You know when there’s a fox and an ant on the prowl, mischief is just around the corner! Soon we’re back to testing those who think they have what it takes to be in our gang! Keep pushing, keep thriving, keep believing in yourself and keep testing life’s boundaries 💪🏼👊🏼
#backatit
When you’re at your lowest and you think there’s no way out... You’re wrong, there is! Take a good look around you and find that one small starting block to simply stand on. Use it as your foundation and overtime elevate yourself block by block 💪🏼👊🏼

#overtoyou
This country is f**ked! So sad that I fought for a country that has lost it’s identity, it’s direction and that has absolutely no leadership at the helm! However I believe that it’s ‘the people’ that makes a place ‘great’ so there’s still hope! More power to the people I say 👊🏼
Every Brit in the UK (children included) should be obligated to watch the Queens funeral as it will forever be a huge part of British history and further education! As sad as Queen Elizabeth II passing is, it has really united the people which I thought was an impossible task 👏🏼

This is an episode that you don’t wanna miss! I’ll be on Instagram live straight after the show to talk through what we expect from the recruits from day one! To all our key workers, keep grinding & stay positive
#thankyou

Straight home, straight into the school run... Now the school run is a hugely important part of the day and it’s absolutely crucial that it’s done with a smile on your face!
I strongly believe that positivity is the key to life! Go out of your way to surround yourself with positive people and also go out of your way to put yourself in positive situations! It’s more contagious than negativity so where are you going wrong? Work for it!
#zeronegativity
Happy Saint George’s day! Always stand proud with your head held high for there is no enemy too strong, too big nor too invisible that we won’t stand up to! Thank you England 🏴 Make this day the most positive yet 🙌🏼Enjoy everyone!

In the Special Forces, I was point man, the first one in you've gotta just pile in & get the job done 👊🏻 It's been really hard to keep this under wraps, BUT, I've written a book called 'FIRST MAN IN'...
Tonight... the pressure is ramped up and it’s going to be even more intense 💪🏻 Let me know what you think of the second episode. Enjoy!

To anyone having trouble finding their way. Stop, be honest & listen to yourself! Negative people may try to defer you but slowly stamp out their negativity with small positive footsteps. You might not know where the path leads but if it feels right FOR YOU, f**king go for it! 🙌🏻
Hold yourself accountable for your actions! They may not be your fault but they are your problem! Never pass blame for something you’ve done... We all make bad life decisions! Own what you do, that way you will acknowledge it, allowing you to process it, learn & move on!💪🏻👊🏻
If you see someone in distress as I witnessed today, please don’t ignore it! We’re all suffering somewhere and somehow and just a small acknowledgement, chat or a hug could potentially safe a life…

#keepaneyeoneachother
It’s not a case of passing or failing! I don’t see ANY benefits or advantages that women will bring being in the SAS or SBS... All I see is exceptions and special allowances which will only weaken a force! That’s my opinion... Prove me wrong!

Sadly it’s the final Episode of

No matter how much trouble I’ve got in, I’ve always said to myself ‘I’m in this moment and it is a negative one, if I think negatively in a negative situation it’s only going to go 1 way.’ The cure is a positive mindset. It recasts life’s most difficult problems as challenges 💪🏻
