Oil prices up: Investments down. That’ll be the US prize idiot again.

Wouldn’t it be great not to have to listen to Andre Agassi drawling on incomprehensibly

The idiot destabilises markets …again

Donald’s daily (and deadly) drivel is rightly decried by Macron. Time for the US to show Donald the door… www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Move him out of the Oval office.

Just my opinion, but there should be a constitutional remedy for when the President of the United States addresses the nation and everything he says is either pure lunacy, an unhinged claim or a blatant fabrication. Just like the 25th amendment, but real.

Why can’t the American people see the problem?

“The second Trump presidency was always going to end in disaster. Now it’s happening.” (Simon Tisdall) www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

With US markets are relatively unscathed, while Asian markets are badly hit and European growth forecasts drop close to zero, is US action against Iran to be interpreted as economic warfare?

How can a few arrogant angry men destroy our world? Democracy overtaken by dictatorship. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The Donald forfeited the right, long ago, to have the UK as a close ally. On the Eastern side of the Atlantic we still believe in international law, and therefore won’t be drawn into his warped view of reality.

“Making Trump feel great is the undoing of American greatness. In arrogating power to himself, the president undermines the foundations of his country’s strength in the world and damages its allies.” Rafael Behr www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A special relationship is built on mutual love and respect. An abusive relationship is when your partner belittles you, gives nothing back, threatens you, keeps negatively comparing you to an ex partner and despite it all assumes you'll always be there for them. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Casual, cavalier, gleeful - Hegseth’s description of US brutality in prosecuting an unjust war. Europe is absolutely right to distance itself from its former close ally which is now acting outside any legal framework.

The message is that we Brits don’t want a special relationship with an unethical coercive bully-boy.

Reform looks friendly - it isn’t

No to Reform. We must not tolerate intolerance. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Good - for a decade and more, academics have advocated for the development of measures of “environmental capital” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Duolingo, if you only display half the question I can only give half the answer.

Laughable, or deplorable. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

🚨The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party is now closing on 80,000 signatures! Let’s get it to the 100,000 needed today! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

To Donald, people are things: commodities or obstacles.

It’s going to be a beautiful day - a very beautiful day - when we no longer have to listen to the voice of the idiot.

This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland: "Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

Every imperial power drums up paranoid fears to justify aggression and expansion. If one excuse looks too ridiculous to attempt, another will always be found.

"America is an oil company with an army." —George Carlin

If people admire you, they put your name on buildings. If you have to do it yourself, well… that’s different.

Yes, another empty assertion from someone who cares nothing for justice. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/d...

The House of Commons Library estimates that leaving the EU is costing the Treasury £90 billion a year in lost tax revenue, while other research suggests UK GDP is 6-8 per cent smaller than it would have been.

But… “While the review will consider recent cases, it will focus on contemporary events and threats and not consider previous allegations over interference in the Brexit referendum.” www.gov.uk/government/n...

Keir Starmer needs to stand up for the BBC against Trump's outrageous $5bn lawsuit and protect licence fee payers from being hit in the pocket. Trump wants to interfere in our democracy and undermine our national broadcaster. We cannot let him.

Great! Now do a Customs Union!

The British Government’s “mild disagreement” with a right-wing dictator is an inadequate response. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The evil of our age. The extreme rich/poor divide is “no longer sustainable for societies or ecosystems”. www.theguardian.com/inequality/2...

Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal. We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

🚨BOOM!! The Petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy has now rocketed past 50,000 signatures! Let’s get it to 100,000. If a petition is what it’s going to take let’s get this done! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Rafael Behr on the sobering implications of destroying the BBC… www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

UK universities must remain “committed to upholding free speech and academic freedom”. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Catastrophically, “the next three years of US environmental policy will essentially amount to the government burying its head in the sand.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Brexit truth: “The Office for Budget Responsibility calculates that Britain’s long-term productivity is 4% lower than it would have been if the country had retained EU membership.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Peston (ITV1) along with Crerar - great format for debating current affairs. Better than BBC’s Newsnight and the now useless (since Fiona Bruce) Question Time.

Ah! Good morning, reality. And welcome. We’ve been expecting you…

“The UK government’s continued failure to right historical wrongs.” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

“Peace prizes are earned through sustained commitment, not through social media tantrums and not from intimidation,” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Justice and truth steadily being turned into his justice; his truth. Sounds like Fascism to me. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025

Profits before environmental care. When will we realise we’re cutting off the branch we’re sitting on? www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Yes America, it’s up to you. Get him out.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
