🇬🇧 STV took their ‘SNP Bad’ to hilarious new levels, with their Reporter personally blaming Stephen Flynn for paving over drains in Largs 5yrs ago 🤣 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺😎

Trump betrayed Iranians who crave freedom from their own brutal regime, and Americans sick of foreign wars and high cost of living, by launching a futile forever war on Iran that's made everything costlier and the world even more perilous. Trump the Turnip. edition.cnn.com/2026/10/26/p...

A good day for democracy. Let’s keep this streak going.

The only thing I’m waiting for is Trump to ‘sign out’.

It's the people and politics that are against being a signatory to the ECHR that proves the need to be a signatory to the ECHR.

Trump rejected worldwide. #USDemocracy youtu.be/Eh-TXLORH74?...

After years of obstructing the EU, Orbán is apparently being lined up for a promotion to obstruct the entire world.

Hello again and thanks for joining me on Day 1705 of Russia's attempt to remove Ukraine from the map. Time for another daily thread, with all the fact-checked news of the war in one handy thread, updated throughout the day, every single day, without fail.

❗️POLITICO reports the EU wants a political agreement by year-end on how to cover Ukraine’s 2027 funding gap, estimated at €70 billion. Around €40 billion is for defense and €30 billion for the state budget, with leaders expected to discuss financing options on November 26. #Ukraine

On the Kupyansk axis, the Custodia unit of Ukraine’s 9th Separate Unmanned Systems Brigade, working with the “Legion” battalion of the 33rd Mechanized Brigade, detected and destroyed a Russian Kozerog-1 MLRS. #Ukraine

The poorest people in Ireland, have a standard of living 63% higher than the poorest people in the UK. Northern Ireland has to leave the UK, and pursue Irish Unity.

Leaky Sue strikes again.

A more than 40% risk reduction “would send many researchers over the Moon”. This personalised mRNA vaccine reduced the risk of skin cancer returning or the recipient dying by 42% go.nature.com/4ik3TNr

It is disgraceful that Andy Burnham took an hour out to appear on Gogglebox just to raise money for Stand Up To Cancer. If he's going to do a TV show he should do what I did and pocket £1.5million for eating some kangaroo bollocks.

Trump and Musk have given the best reason why not to buy American. Customers - governmental and private alike - around the globe will take note of this and act accordingly, and I wouldn't be surprised if this won't be limited to US military products only. Alternatives are now national security!

Tonight in 1962, as the Cuban Missile Crisis escalated toward direct confrontation, a sentry on patrol at Duluth Air Force Base in Minnesota thought he saw someone climbing the perimeter fence. He shot at the intruder and activated the base sabotage alarm, which by design automatically triggered ...

Bloody woke, allowing children to grow up breathing cleaner air.

Economic woes of America? Trump's tariffs raise prices of inputs to American industry. Trump's Wars raise prices of oil for American industry and consumers. Trump makes enemies out of rich friends and friends of enemies who'll *never* makeup for Americans' losses. edition.cnn.com/2026/10/25/p...

Two Finnish firms progress satellite plans for Ukraine Ukraine is urgently seeking alternatives to Elon Musk's Starlink internet service which recently capped its connection speed in the country. yle.fi/a/74-20253000

Farage has been creating national emergencies for years. It has to be the right kind, racist is easiest, to justify extreme powers and cruel actions, like Trump, Putin, Hitler, all ruthlessly dividing to conquer, taking livelihoods, lifestyles & lives. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This is how rumours start because we now know that fact checking is as rigorous as Reform's candidate vetting procedure. And as Josef Goebbels once said ''Repeat a lie often enough, People will believe it''.

That the fate of a nation and the lives of it's citizens should depend on Musk and any billionaire corporate "terms", as if protection from being the victim of horrendous violence is a commercial contractual matter. A protection racket? www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Mark Carney on Elon Musk crippling Ukraine’s Starlink: “I search for the right adjective to describe whoever took this decision… against a country that is literally fighting for the lives of its citizens against naked aggression."

"Legal migrant numbers are at a historic low and small boat crossings have halved, yet that didn’t stop anger at asylum seekers spilling on to the streets. "There is no level of migration low enough to satisfy some people. There is, however, a level of migration low enough to make us all poorer."

Russia is well versed in the art of starving the Ukrainians to death. Stalin left plenty of lessons for his heir, Putin, to follow.

Nailed it.

I am longing for my freedom of movement to be returned. It will be almost as wonderful as breaking down the Berlin Wall.

Have you ever looked at a tormented city and wondered how much devastation it takes to kill it? How much more can it endure? Where is the line after which survivors, if any remain, can no longer rebuild? ​We watch russia raze our cities one by one.

And still you stand proud.

Why should I, or anyone, be told about this? How did this story break? Was it precipitated by Meghan or someone else? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"advanced missile-warning technology. “That is something Europeans don’t have, and they don’t have it because we (the US) have told them for the last 30 years not to develop it … because they can rely on us ...America is proving ... it simply can’t be relied upon” edition.cnn.com/2026/10/24/e...

In the United Kingdom, 77 percent of #ActuallyAutistic people surveyed said they "felt too scared to tell others they’re autistic" and that the top three culprits for misinformation are politicians, social media and the mainstream media. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Muslims and immigrants, despite all the lies we're told about them, have never presented a systemic threat to Western security, let alone to "Western civilisation". Instead, the threats come from our governments, especially in the US, and their grim alliances with capital and overseas dictators.

Trump’s speech in Florida today was so incoherent even Fox cut away.

My colleague Chris nailing it again: "We are on a diet where we eat a large kale salad but refuse to give up our daily triple cheeseburger. We are adding renewables, yet global fossil fuel use continues hitting record highs to feed growing power demands." lnkd.in/p/ejeaySMn
