We don't have a problem with immigrants, just those who are criminals... We don't have a problem with immigrants, just those who entered the country illegally... We don't have a problem with immigrants, just those who don't speak English...

CAT ADVISORY: Today is the first day of Autumn in the northern hemisphere. Ensure your human servants procure extra snacks to see you through until the Spring, then eat them all this weekend.

The most important news from today's reshuffle:

Pride without prejudice x

Putin and Poochin

It's not ideal that the one person in the entire world that Trump is willing to listen to is Vladimir Putin.

Artist's impression of Trump's proposed extension to the White House:

Today Angela Rayner is meeting the victorious Lionesses in London, while Keir Starmer is in Scotland to see Donald Trump. Sometimes being the boss has its downsides.

What do you mean the nearest McDonald's is 20 miles away?! Isn't Scotland the home of McDonald's?!"

Horrible migrants are killing Europe, says horrible migrant arriving in Europe

"Accept certain inalienable truths: prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders." (Words by Mary Schmich)

Wasn't even my first breakfast!

Me think he doth protest too much...

Macron: "He's a very clever cat" Merci monsieur le président x

Twenty years ago, Islamist terrorists murdered 52 people in London. Those cowardly acts of hatred have been followed by two decades of compassion by the families and friends of the people killed: t.co/Zmy5aKjqAt

Wishing all of my friends in the United States a happy Independence Day. Only took you 249 years to go back to having a King... 🇺🇸

Have I accidentally fallen asleep in an airing cupboard?!

There are some days when the news can be overwhelming and leave you feeling sad and afraid. Today is one of them. Try to remember that the good in the world has always outnumbered the bad, stroke a cat and enjoy the sunshine x (Pic @imageplotter.bsky.social)

Translation: Targetting actual foreign criminals is hard work, so Trump's troops have detainee working immigrants. They do tough, low paid jobs that US citizens refuse. Rich people soon notice when these roles aren't being done and the very richest of them have text Trump to say they're angry.

I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it...

What did immigrants ever do for Los Angeles, besides settle it, name it and work to turn it into one of the world's great metropolises?

This is an image of British Commandos on a approaching Sword Beach on D-Day, 6th June 1944. War is a horrific thing; these men left their loved ones to enter its hellish cauldron. Some never returned. We remember their immense bravery and sacrifices so that they should never be necessary again.

June is LGBT Pride Month. Love is love. Be your fabulous selves. A good piece here for any of my friends that want to learn about its history: lordslibrary.parliament.uk/pride-in-the-u…

Quite the shiner that Musk was sporting today; surely Trump could have lent him some make-up?

The X-Ray from Trump's last medical just leaked #TACO

Today is #NationalBiscuitDay - what biscuits are politicians most similar to: Keir Starmer = Malted milk - not as popular as they used to be Angela Rayner = hob nob - often in hot water but emerge unscathed Lee Anderson = party rings - turn up at a lot of different parties

There's no place for gender ambiguity in Shakespeare!

They are not considering the offer; they are laughing at it

Is there a big red button on his desk that randomly raises tarrifs whenever he hits it mid tantrum? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Why would Walmart need to eat the tarrifs when Trump said they weren't being paid by Americans? Was he lying?

First rule of MAGA: It's only OK when we do it:

Scorn in the USA...

40 years ago a horrific fire at Bradford City's Valley Parade ground claimed the lives of 56 people. It took less than four minutes for a small fire to become a raging inferno. Warnings had been ignored.

A Leo from Chicago who annoys Republicans you say?

Donald Trump is no longer the most powerful American in the world... #LeoXIV

80 years ago Britain declared a national holiday to celebrate the surrender of Nazi forces in Europe. Today we celebrate their victory and remember the countless sacrifices they made to deliver it. The London Museum has this excellent piece about that day: londonmuseum.org.uk/collections/lo…

The designs for a memorial to Queen Elizabeth II have been revealed. Each would see a new bridge across the lake in St. James' Park. My favourite is this from @JLG_London - its understated elegance is most apt. You can see all the designs here: competitions.malcolmreading.com/queenelizabeth…

Wishing a happy Cinco de Mayo to my friends celebrating in Mexico and the United States today x

The 8th May has been marked as VE Day since before Trump was born. VE stands for Victory in Europe. As for the First World War, the idea that some Yank who refused to serve in the military, will command people around the world not to call it Rembrance Day is laughable. Sod off.

The message from yesterday is clear: Vote Reform, get Tories
