I mean… How long do we have to put up with this shit? We really do get it. Farage’s greed makes him an insane security threat. And there’s absolutely nothing altruistic or democratic or good for the country that will come from his frenzied corruption. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Aiding and abetting the enemy is...(checks notes)...called treason. Causing innocent civilians to be killed is...(checks notes)...called crimes against humanity and a war crime. Seriously, what the fuck is being done in our name, with our money?

Ten years ago today. In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine...

Democrats need to be ready to hold hearings and inquiries into the assault that Musk, Zuckerberg and other tech bros are making against democratic institutions at home and abroad.

Canvino reposted

This is pathetic. Ukraine tested Starlink speed restrictions in Europe and had no issues - the restrictions only exist in Ukraine. The Trump administration is actively helping Russia kill Ukrainians - and risking the lives of US and NATO advisors in Ukraine.

Why is a retired banjo playing, public school nepo-baby on the BBC's flagship Newsnight commenting on the Red Wall? And why no mention that: Winston Marshall only has a political platform because his Dad is billionaire Paul Marshall... owner of GB NEWS and the Spectator.

The "red wall" is not a term you hear often these days

The core Sovereign Grant for King Charles from public purse will rise to £99.9m (from 2027/28). 93% increase from £51.8m in 2024/25. 65% higher in real terms than in 2016/17. Did your income rise at that rate? 25.3m people live below minimum income standard. We are in it all together, aren't we

Journalist to Hegseth: “Mr. Secretary, are you Vladimir Putin’s puppet on Ukraine? Mr. Secretary, is Vladimir Putin playing you like a fiddle?” Good job, Britain! That’s how it’s done. Video: Sky News

"The social media engagement on posts from Reform UK figures appears to have dropped in the wake of Ukrainian strikes on Russian data centres," according to The London Economics.

The larger public in Europe may miss this. But every diplomat and international relations expert and pundit here sees this and will remember for a generation: after the US promised to protect Ukraine if it gave up its nuclear weapons, it is now openly supporting Russia. The great American betrayal.

The United States is now importing fuel from Russia, per President Trump.

President Macron, "Brexit has cost the UK 8% of GDP.. Brexit is the biggest lie of the last 30 years" My view: Brexit was sold as a route to greater prosperity: less bureaucracy, more money, new trade opportunities Instead, Britain put new barriers between itself and its largest trading market.

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

There can only be one option on the table. Full EU membership. 💷 £92bn for our economy. 📈 £43bn extra exports each and every year. ⬆️ Growth in every postcode, region, and nation of the UK. 🇬🇧 628/632 constituencies in favour. 🗳️ Stops Farage getting to No10. It really is a no brainer.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.

"Now, I know you Chinamen think you're the shit when it comes to tricking your population with stupid propaganda, but—COME ON—you can't touch this beauty here. And there is more where that came from, trust me."

The US president has hired a nazi lawyer to defend his attempt to ban the free press and all I see is like 50 people musing about it on Bluesky. You MFs need to wake up

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”

Waking up after the Brexit referendum - “this has to be the single stupidest thing a country has ever done”. America 2024 - “yet”

I get that people like to clown on Macklemore, but he's quietly done so much good for Seattle. Besides the stuff on his website, he's donated to the music program at my kid's school and sponsors the free summer parks concerts.

“The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you’re someone. You hear them shouting “Heil, Spode!” and you imagine it is the Voice of the People.” Bertie Wooster

Now why would anyone in Dover feel threatened by a couple of patriots, helpfully organised by Danny Tommo, the flag shagger with a made up name who's been to prison for various drugs and violence offences including kidnap.
