Am hoping Denmark have outsmarted Trump…what am I saying? Of course they have. He has the IQ of a rotting potato. Am looking forward to details of how this bully is further back than square one!!

I am in the UK and every day I pass a petrol station the price has gone up. It has gone up more quickly in the last week or so. I did some calculations and we are paying, on average, over $10 per gallon of unleaded petrol. Diesel is more expensive.

No member of the royal family should be going to the USA on behalf of the United Kingdom. The people of America are standing up to save their democracy. We should support them not the criminals in The White House.

Because Americans are going to need passports to vote, can people from outside the US sponsor a voter to be able to vote so we can all get off this bloody awful merry-go-round. Don’t want to sponsor a republican. #sponsoracitizen

This was my qualification for signing the petition to award Minneapolis the Nobel Peace Prize “Showing up in situations that should not be dangerous but were. Providing comfort and help to those being persecuted. The whole city is a haven of righteousness and strength.”

July 20th 1969, the whole world watched in awe struck wonder as the US put a man on the moon. The possibilities were without measure. The future looked amazing. It’s been a steep fall.

Listening to someone on Radio 4 yesterday talk about the fact that Russia thought the takeover of Ukraine would take two weeks. They did not expect Europe to rally behind the country the way they have done. It shows what we can do when we work together to fight evil.

Alternatively…I just watched the film Sinners. It is spellbinding. The music is intense and outstanding and the acting is Oscar worthy.

The King of Great Britain definitely cannot go to the USA now after what Trump said about our Troops in Afghanistan. The royals are patrons of many arms of the military. Charles served. He should go to Denmark instead.

I want to live long enough to see the US restored to its core values and to watch a movie about the multiple criminal trials of the fallen Trump administration.

The Oxford English Dictionary added ‘Rage Bait’ to its pages and describe it as online. The Daily Mail has been promoting rage bait for decades. Raising blood pressure for angry people all over the UK. Right wing newspapers were rage bait long before the internet.

Standing on the river bank on Wareham Common in Dorset. Water is so clear. I can see leaves travelling in the current on the surface and along the river bed. Very calming if there wasn’t also a Pointer/Lurcher barking at me for a treat!!

I am so ashamed of Keir Starmer. We all knew that Putin would call Trump pretty and then Trump would be orange putty in his hands. But our PM then saying Trump has helped to potentially bring peace to this region makes me sick to my stomach.

Why do reasonable people have to listen to Scott Jennings spout inflammatory bullshit on Radio 4’s Today programme whilst going unchallenged by the host. So depressing BBC.

Even though this deal is more equal and therefore better for Ukraine. It still feels like doing a deal during a war to guarantee some security for the citizens of that country is war profiteering and absolutely despicable.

Piece of shit Trump and Vance trying to drive a wedge between UK and Europe. Not happy to JUST divide USA. America is a clear and present danger to the rest of the world. My hope is we can learn to get along without you completely. Sorry to decent Americans.

Every country that takes education seriously has a department that oversees schools in their country. How will you even be able to tell how schools are doing without central monitoring. USA will just have a question mark next to it!!

I was wondering if the Christmas trees at the White House this year will, once again, be red? Would that be enough or should they be dripping red and letting it pool at the base?

Would US troops actually take up arms against a NATO member or invade a country unprovoked because Trump wanted it? I have been pondering this as, I imagine, have most of the population of Greenland.

Radio 4, Today programme. Talking about investing in our military infrastructure. Buying Typhoons instead of F35’s in case “Trump wakes up in a bad mood and cancels contract half way through”. Finally the BBC is letting the truth out of the bag.

Am so glad that Z got the reception he did from Starmer. Z is battle hardened hero but still want to give the guy a hug after what he was put through by Trump and his cronies.
