The USA is no longer a reliable ally for Europe. We must build a European defence capability which is totally independent of the Americans. It will cost European taxpayers to do so, but we must stop fooling ourselves that Trump would ever honour the NATO article 5 commitment.

Kushner took a $50 mn bribe from the Emiratis to orchestrate the firing of Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, according to Matt Cole's new book, Princes and Thieves, out today. To be clear, this is a serious felony, if true.

Stolen valour fits with her lifestyle and relationships.

🚨 NEW INVESTIGATION: A British drone manufacturer that has benefited from Ministry of Defence-funded development work has been acquired by an American company involved in developing attack drones for the Israeli military.

Wow. The scariest part of this is that the felon-in-charge is not above stating or doing this. The MSM has normalized a demented, man baby in the highest office doing the most outrageous and inconceivable things that would have put anyone else under the prison.

Since 1950 the average person person has got 4.4x wealthier. The richest 0.1% have got 80x richer. The richest 0.001% 200x richer. The billionaires 2000x richer. These people were tens to thousands of times richer than you in the 50's. Now it's thousands/millions times.

Wesbite sounds like a knock off brand of Weetabix that you might pick up in a German or Austrian supermarket

@mwuerker.bsky.social

the markets have essentially become a gauge for how much corruption the government in power is going to let the business class get away with

Ukraine now knows this regime knows nothing about reciprocity.💔

🇷🇸♥️ A huge victory for democracy and for the people of Serbia!

At this point, the case that Pete Hegseth is a Russian stooge is pretty strong. And there's no shortage of folks in upper echelons in the Pentagon who are persuaded of that, too.

Putin: “Russia is exploring the possibility of cooperation with the US in the Arctic.” Just a reminder of Trump’s lies that he wanted Greenland to keep Russia out of the Arctic.

@samiraahmeduk.bsky.social The Farage love-in at BBC News is, yet again, all over social media and BBC News' reputation sinks further every day. That's what they want, isn't it? Drive the rational away, shrink the audience and justify the cuts.

Watch this documentary on the rise of Idi Amin and you'll find yourself puzzling over the many striking parallels between Amin and Trump. They really are two peas in a pod. www.thetimes.com/culture/tv-r...

This argument is made generally in Western politics. The assumption is that it is possible to win over the ignorant and bigoted and that it can be done without pandering to their prejudices and penalising minorities. This is a mistake. One third do not vote. They are a better group to focus on.

A Palestinian won the Nobel Prize last year

LEAD the voters don't just follow. Some in Labour are frightened of their own friggin' shadow.

WTF is the point of Lisa Nandy? Why are the BBC still blatantly promoting Reform? 🤬

Farage makes clear that liking a post by Tommy Robinson would not exclude somebody from being a Reform candidate The mask has slipped They are white supremacists and fascists #BBCR4Today

If there are Choc Hobnobs in the house, I'll eat the lot in one sitting. So the last time I bought a pack was 3 years ago. They cost £1. Yesterday, in the same shop: £2.50. Inflation is 5% Not 150% Should cost £1.16 Not £2.50 Sometimes you lose sight of just how badly you're being ripped off.

Europe is working on several plans to break the dominance of tech billionaire Elon Musk’s satellite communications service, Starlink. The moves come as the world's richest man expands his grip on space. 🔗 vist.ly/5q5zj

Trump’s presidency is a wealth transfer from the bottom to the top

Another boycott I can't participate in because I don't patronise any of these "restaurants". I might have bought something from Taco Bell on the motorway once.

Good for your physical and emotional health to avoid!!!

Democrats call for special counsel to probe Trump's ties to Epstein

Conspiracy Coles Reform UK’s new Leader in Staffordshire, Hayley Coles is a chemtrails conspiracy theorist. When does the council start handing out the tinfoil hats? More here: hopenothate.org.uk/2026/04/02/r...

Together with Cameron, Johnson and the rest of the Tories, this man is to blame... #BrexitDisaster

I think the Nazi with the brain worm is in search of a "final solution".

Both false and racist

Response of Jackie Lederer "Freepost Plus RUHS-YGAJ- TKBL, Reform UK, Millbank Tower, 21-24 Millbank, London, SW1P 4QP • Note: Address the envelope as 'membership application'" to "The Royal mail just posted this through my door. Can I send it back where it came from at their expense?" meme

BBC Today programme "Brexit is a success" says Nigel Farage. This is now no longer a joke. The BBC is still spewing out propaganda and the government does NOTHING!

The nodding fascist nods once for every lie:

Can we please make him pay for lying? It's the only way this nonsense stops.

Left: President Trump insults Norway calling it a sh*thouse country Right: Visit Norway, the tourism board, trolls President Trump, displaying some of their best toilets on their Instagram 😅

Fuck off #Farage. You have stated on the record that you wouldn't have accepted a loss in the referendum and would have continued to campaign for the UK to leave. #R4Today

Super-rich get ‘double dividend’ from causes and costs of climate crisis. They profit from polluting industries, and through the ‘adaptation economy’. Super-rich buy govts, control means of production and think tanks. Victims pay higher prices for food, homes, relocations. Who governs?

Yesterday, I was barred from entering the West Bank by Israeli officials, as part of a @progintl.bsky.social delegation.

Oh look it's the Far Right rioting in Spain. Over what you ask, "Something very important?" No of course not, never is. They are rioting because their racist Far Right 'leader' cancelled his '''speech'''

“Malevolent leaders” thousands of miles away with a grip on our energy bills. Perfect Halloween material, if only it were made up. Tomorrow’s Budget decides the future of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), the government grant that knocks thousands off the cost of a heat pump. (1/5 🧵)
