Insincere & I guess bereaved families won't find this good enough. I agree. However Starmer got that out of Trump. Weak leaders don't get Trump to back track. Not a popular view, but I think Starmer is a great PM & gets a bad deal from the press. Many are underestimating him, including Mr Burnham.

I simply don't understand all this fawning over Andy Burnham. Personally I don't like him. All I think he cares about is himself. He's been at the centre of Govt before & tried to be leader twice. Not particularly successfully. If he's doing ok at being a Mayor, good, keep at it & support the Govt.

Starmer could not have made his outrage & call for Trump to apologise over his insulting words re the UK's contribution in Afghanistan, any clearer. He was very blunt. Yet BBC News spent 20 minutes trying in every possible way, to heap some blame on the PM! That is as disgusting as Trumps comments.

Trump praising countries that join his "board", while insulting the countries of men & women who actually gave their lives, "on the front line", after a NATO call for assistance from the US. Do regular Americans realise how insulted the people of these countries & the bereaved families feel today?

Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen's note to Starmer after visiting Chequers yesterday.

Of course all decent Americans know Trump is totally wrong, out of order and making disgusting, inaccurate comments. However, these false assertions from him, bring shame to all of the US.

To Trump and his fellow liars, the last and only time NATO was asked for help, it was the US asking... Now he insults the nations and their sons and daughters who gave their lives...

Yep... and they are the ones who always claim the patriotic title. Starmer is for the country, they are for themselves, nothing more. I so wish people could see that.

We're With John and Norway......

How can all the news channels report on Trumps Davos speech, as if it and he were normal? The world press didn't even do that with Hitler? The man is a raving lunatic, totally off his rocker. For all our sakes, report it as so.

If the US Constitution, it's politicians, lawmakers & people can't recognise that their President is totally unhinged & deranged & remove him from office immediately, then individual decent countries should cease all trading, defence & intelligence sharing & communications, until sanity returns.

Don't they have tomatoes in Switzerland?

NATO countries need to get rid of Mark Rutte with a vote of no confidence, or whatever the process is, ASAP. At a time like this we need a strong NATO chief. Rutte is without doubt, not that.

All those that voted for Trump, enabled him and failed to scrutinise him are to blame. Also, all that comment and report on him, as if he and all this were normal, are to blame too. The man's a very dangerous maniac. It's time he and his voters and enablers were treated as so. It's time for truth.

A message for the UK Government and Buckingham Palace... Do we really send our King to be hosted by Governments that threaten us and call us stupid? If so, then he might as well be sent off to Moscow after his USA/ Trump visit next year.

I reckon Farage's nicotine stained fingerprints are all over Trump's sudden obsession with the Chagos Islands. Farage may wear Union Jack socks but he ain't no patriot.

The UK people don't like bullies and ultimately we stand up to them, no matter how big they think they are. The time has come to cut ties with Trump and face the consequences. We can't go on pandering to his every tantrum. Let's go it alone, along with those that are brave enough too.

MLK Jr. said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people." Remember this.

I'm not saying Trump is a Russian asset, just that I can't think of anything he'd be doing differently if he were.

I’m not a royalist, but we have a “real” King here in the UK and he needs to tell Trump his visit to the US next year is off and then the UK royals should visit Denmark ASAP. Our King doesn’t visit countries that threaten us, but we do support our Danish and Greenland friends.

Trump is an idiot and a madman, we all knows that. Yet somehow he got elected US President twice? He will be gone soon enough, but the consequences will be with us for generations. When he is gone though, remember the faces of those that enabled and did his dirty work. They must be held accountable.

There comes a time when you choose sides. It's arrived. If we don't choose our friends and neighbours in Denmark it will be shameful. Sod Trump and those indulging him.

Donald Trump "Denmark only owns Greenland because a boat arrived there 500 years ago." Does this stupid POS know the USA's history?

We watch brave Americans standing up to Trumps ICE thugs & we in the UK & Europe now have economic war declared on us. The danger is not just from Trump, but from others like Putin taking advantage of this mayhem. We need to fully unite & step up our defense, as if we were at war, because we are.

As Trump imposes additional tariffs on the UK and Europe for their support of Greenland (and Denmark), what a wonderful time to counter act Trump totally and rejoin the EU. We would be stronger and better off, so would the EU and Europe itself. It makes so much sense. Swivel on it Trump...

What a pathetic world we are living in, when world leaders and figures behave like small children. Please bring back the adults.

What a freak show that Farage/Jenrick press conference was. Creepy "politicians" & even creepier reporters. Not one cutting, telling question between them. Racists lined up in front of them and yet they pussyfoot around the edges so as not to offend "Nige". Just like Trump & his press. Useless.

Hear hear! 👏 @martinsandbu.ft.com tells Europe to shed its fear for Trump’s wrath and to plot its own course. “Truly strategic thinking for Europeans is not ingratiation but making clear what they are willing to fight for”

Strange that the media are more interested in what a party might do in several years time, about social media problems, if it were in power, than what the actual party in power are actually doing about it, now.

This Is 👇 Also True......

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

More horror in the US. America needs to sort itself out. Not just Trump, but the system, the laws, guns, the poor... so much. Meanwhile the rest of the world needs to shun the US. No world cup, no Olympics, no tourists. Only the people of the US can sort this. You have a madman in charge. Good luck.

You can see it coming... Trump will want Greenland as the price for Ukraine security It's time for the UK & Europe to really step up. Europe can be a superpower too, but for good. Never mind 3% or 5% defence spending, we need 10% & people need to be told why. We should never depend on America again.

Does Trump really want a war with Europe, because that is what this will lead to? Will good Americans allow this to continue? America, what the hell have you done? This is crazy. You have a mad man and crazies running your country. This is no different to Putin and Russia.

Dear decent people of the US, please know that when we in Europe criticise, or insult the US, we refer to the "Trump US" not the good people of the US. Here in the UK we criticise, doubt & insult our own country, especially when have leaders like Boris Johnson, who was no more than a Trump wannabe.

Marco Rubio says "Cuba is in the hands of incompetent seniles... " Has Trumps US taken over Cuba too?

Time for Europe, including the UK, to disown Trump & go it alone? Perhaps make friends with China? How would that be worse? The US in under the control of a maniac bully & Europe's leaders need to stand up to him or they are cowards. Both are bad. I'm sick to death of Trump. Dear President Xi...

Well there you go, we all knew Trump was Caracas.

Dear (Trumps) America, Who the hell do you think you are? "The best military" "The supreme warriors" "Nothing like this ever seen before" "The greatest President" All that "power and glory", but absolutely shit scared of Putin. A typical bully, a typical coward, a sad nation.

Merry Christmas everyone.

“We have sacrificed our national success because of our fear of immigration. And now, if Farage has his way, we'll do it all over again” Superb, important analysis of the profound harm Farage does to our country in his rabidly racist and egotistical bid for power liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/407...

Much-needed advice for some. "A little festive advice to those in Reform UK." "If mysterious men from the east appear bearing gifts, this time, report it to the police."

Not sure how on earth the US survived the first 4 yr term of Trump, but I just can't see how they, or indeed the world, are going to survive this one. The first yr is not even over yet, the real US is dead in the water & Putin is getting more dangerous every day. Every Trump voter is responsible.

Not true. Became an MP last year after years of trying. Each time he fades, starts a new party & calls himself "God Almighty". Oh and you lot fawn over him for some peculiar reason. He's no political survivor, he just resurrects the same old racist bile from times gone by & the gullible cheer...

Are Western leaders really defending us when Trump is clearly not engaged, with allies, NATO or even sanity? Its time our leaders spoke the truth & admitted we're on our own. The West minus the US is still formidable, we must just face up & pay for it. Without security, the rest means very little.

Whether it’s dealing with Trump or fixing our relationship with Europe, the PM needs to start listening to Parliament and the public. If he doesn't he may not be in the job for much longer.

All reasonable, decent people & those with at least half a brain, know that Putin wants to divide & defeat Europe. He promotes far right loonies & other extremist views to enable this & destroy our democracies. Trump, Brexit, Farage, it is all Putin. This is a war. Europe needs to treat it as so.

We may not be perfect in Europe, but we are still democratic, still civilised, still compassionate, still loyal to our allies & friends. Qualities, the US under you, cannot claim at all. The Europe you falsely predict is the USA you have now created. Moron.
