DECISION TIME FOR CANADA ON FUTURE AIRFORCE PROCUREMENT Last week Canada took delivery of the first two of its order of F-35A’s, which will be based at Luke AFB in the US as the RCAF trains its first pilots and maintainers. There’s only one person now left to determine if the order stretches to

GRAPH SHOWING RUSSIAN LOSSES FOR GAINS This shows you the devastating casualties in the sloping upward line and the bottom how much ground they gained or lost over the same time frame.

BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

TRUMP & NETANYAHU IN BATTLE FOR WAR ON IRAN Netanyahu faces an election in the next day, and he's losing to a former Army Chief of Staff, Gadi Eisenkot. The current Army Chief of Staff is refusing to attack Iran only on verbal orders - which have apparently been given. He wants signed orders from

US-EU DECOUPLING IS NOW A BOOMING OPPORTUNITY Every time Musk, Trump or some other regime flunky does something that harms European interests, largely because they can and it promotes their pro-Russia credentials to make their master happy, it has an impact.

Here I am with the winner of Clacton's annual 'Point At A Twat' competition.

Nigel Farage’s attack on the RNLI and co is a new low even for this bottom-feeder. He wants to prosecute anyone who saves lives of people that he doesn't like. Desperate Farage diverts attention from investigations by pledging laws that can't work. archive.ph/5UYnG/

Danny Tommo's 'patriot platform' vigilantes were refused service in The George Inn, Portsmouth. They demanded to know why, despite the fact they do not have to be given a reason. Always make bigots feel unwelcome. Show the pub some love for doing the right thing. Things you love to see ✊❤️

The Beeb VS Trump: Part The Next #PolitiZoom

AMAZING NEW INTERCPTOR KIT ON UKRAINE HELICOPTERS The F-7 Litavi anti drone launcher entering service. Advantage includes they are already travelling at speed so that increases range. 12 of these on a single chopper is a good start!

Jamal Khashoggi writes articles criticizing Donald Trump. Jared Kushner pays a hitman (for what, we do not know, but probably not to babysit his kids). Jamal Khashoggi is murdered and cut into pieces. Donald Trump's response: "things happen"

A new UN report says the U.S. was the only major economy whose emissions rose in 2025. America accounted for 70% of global emissions growth, driven by rising electricity demand and a rebound in coal power. While others cut or slowed emissions, the U.S. dragged the world backward. Trump did it—again.

Your weekend reminder that Nigel Farage wants to - leave the ECHR - repeal the Equality Act - Strip back workers rights - Lift restrictions on exploitative zero-hours contracts - repeal Renters’ Rights Act which abolishes “no fault evictions” He is not on your side youtu.be/KxOQRt8PQys?...

Yep, E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G.

Mark Carney on Elon Musk throttling Starlink: "I search for the right adjective to describe whoever took this decision or group of people took this decision against a country that is literally fighting for the lives of the citizens against naked aggression."

The bird even realized he had won Original post

The growing realisation that full official mobilisation is not just unwise, its unachievable, faces a state sponsored kidnapping and coercion policy that cannot deliver anything but crude numbers, let alone a victory.

NEW: A bird flu outbreak has been raging uncontrolled on a Utah mink farm for two months. Flu experts fear it could spark a devastating human pandemic. But officials haven’t acted — instead prioritizing the financial interests of the fur trade.

Perfect.

UKRAINIAN ADVANCES CONTINUE AS RUSSIA KEEPS ATTACKING GRID Ukraine has advanced in the Lyman area while Russia continues its campaign against the energy grid. Russia is trying to get Trump and Xi to meet in trilateral format to create some kind of authoritarian conference where they carve up zones

THE END OF THE LINE FOR AMERICAN MILITARY TECH The regimes choice to kill Ukrainians in their homes by disabling Starlink and preventing defensive drones to intercept incoming Russian weapons, has to be a line crossed, a step so far over what can be considered acceptable behavior by a supposed ally

STARLINK DID NOT STOP A MASSIVE UKRAINIAN RAID ON ST. PETERSBURG Ukraine may not be able to defend itself from Russian drones as Musk/Trump continue to help Russia strike by reducing the speed of Starlink. Ukraine made it clear to Russia yesterday that wasn’t going to stop it hitting back. Over

“NATO DOES NOT GET IT” Caoran Robertson was interviewing a Ukrainian commander on the front lines near Kramatorsk. He asked a senior commander what did he think NATO understood about modern war? “They don’t know anything. They pretend they do, they think they do, but they haven’t got a clue. They

The Global War is in many ways already here, we just don't see it or understand how deep its already gone. But it can be stopped. We just have to hold on and ride the wave until the main protagonists exit the stage.

THE UKRAINIANS ARE IMPROVING THEIR JET DRONE INTERCEPT RATE These jey powered drones are seriously difficult to shoot down. Each week they get faster with newer models detected at up to 700-800kmph. Even so the speed Ukraine is catching up is very positive. 78 jet drones yesterday with 49 shot down

THE RETURN OF THE 31st MOTORIZED This unit had been slowly destroyed under relentless Russian pressure around Lyman. Retreating was all they seemed to do. The brigade was chronically undermanned and had fewer drones and operators than neighbouring companies. Men vanished overnight to go home

STARLINK/STARSHIELD RESOLVED AND BACK TO NORMAL There’s no doubt it was a warning shot from Trump. Perhaps more of a punishment. The White House’s statement that it doesn’t control Starshield is flatly disingenuous. The result was 859 shaheed drones over 24 hours that were not intercepted as easily

PLEASE REPOST FAR AND WIDE SO EVERYONE KNOWS WHERE TRUMP STANDS

MUSK SAYS ITS TRUMP THAT DID IT Desperate to avoid blame for the slowing down of Starshield - the militarised version of starlink operated by the Pentagon, Musk threw Trump under the bus by saying it was him who most likely ordered the slow down in service. Since then some are claiming its been

RUSSIANS IN RETREAT AT KUMAR Lunar is north of Velika Novisilka and west of Odradne in the SE section of the front. Russians say they're fighting to hold their ground but Ukraine has taken back a slaient about 15km deep and 18km wide at its base. Their left flank is up against a river so they

TRUMP & ELON MUSK ARE MURDERING UKRAINIANS #ukrainianview Let's be in no doubt, on Trumps orders ballistic missile warnings have been stopped leaving hundreds in harms way. Civillians died last night because Trump let it happen. Musk slowed Starlink down deliberately because Musk disagrees

THE BOTS ARE ALIVE BUT CAGED I might know what a bot is, I know what a web crawler is, but the intricacies of how they function in relation to servers and in this case Yandex, required new understanding. My educator has in essence tried to explain it thus: The bots are not dead, they cannot get out

AMERICANS SEEM NOT TO BE GIVING EARLY WARNING DATA OF MISSILE ATTACKS TO UKRAINE The US ballistic missile early warning system uses several satellites in geosynchronous orbit to detect the heat blooms of launching missiles. Even short ranged missiles are quickly detected at launch, and while

🇺🇸 Mike Johnson: “Of course, everyone is frustrated with fuel prices, but it’s not related to policy. It’s related to the Strait of Hormuz.” Interesting. Very interesting. Because Trump blamed Ukraine for rising fuel prices.
