‘Gie it laldy’ folks

Scots are prepared to vote tactically for independence parties to block Nigel Farage from Holyrood, a new poll has found Read here: www.thenational.scot/news/2...

Well, there have been a lot of memes making fun of it.

Remember the US military budget is mostly funded by debt partly held and funded by... European countries. Time to go in reverse... bsky.app/profile/grac...

These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all. They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America. They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Farage picked his side a long time ago … and it isn’t the UK. That journos are slow to this realisation is really quite worrying. We’ve been screaming it for years.

Busted🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Putin's little tool Farage is all over our TV screens, so I think this deserves revisiting. Farage squirms as Rep. Jamie Raskin obliterates the "Putin-loving, free speech imposter, Trump sycophant". Please share. The news media seem all too keen to forget about Farage's service to Russia.

I think the White House badly underestimates the strength of the pan-European folk memory of 1930s appeasement, and how deep it still cuts. I suppose this is what happens when you learn in school that WW2 started in 1941 in Hawaii.

Sovereignty was never the issue. Tax-dodging and maintaining a lack of transparency regarding their financial dodgy dealings was the issue.

President Trump imposes tariffs on UK & others because they oppose the US taking over Greenland 👇

The British far-right aren't making any secret of what they want for the UK. They're literally printing it in headlines.

Letting this happen to the mother of one of your many, many many children seems like next level misogyny

The Fayed/Harrods case bears the hallmarks of sex trafficking At least 400 women have come forward in the wake of the Harrods abuse scandal so why aren’t they being referred to the National Referral Mechanism?

Farage and Trump are both bullies and cowards. This idea of them as courageous patriots is a blatant lie. They refuse to own up to the misery that they caused, just spouting out lie after lie. Truly evil men.

They are just the fronts for the big money! Farage is Chritopher Harborne's puppet, and below is a list of Trump string pullers! www.forbes.com/sites/leokam...

Feels like something cracked today in the transatlantic alliance. Europeans have been swallowing their pride, bitting their tongues, and bending the knee. That strategy may have bought them time but it has now clearly failed. It also had a major cost - it has made the WH think Europe will cave. 1/

This is why Trump dislikes the EU. Together this group of countries could deal some serious damage against the US in ways that don’t need military might. But alone that damage would be reduced The EU (hopefully with the UK) need to stand together against him, and not give an inch in anything

Trump is threatening new tariffs on the UK and seven other European countries unless we give in to his plans to take over Greenland. The thought of our us giving in to these threats makes me so angry. So I've just signed this petition calling for Keir Starmer to stand firm. 38d.gs/trump_gl_df

Bloody hell. After disarming Ukraine’s air defences so Putin could strike its critical infrastructure, it now looks like Trump’s administration is feeding intelligence to Russia on Ukraine’s forces

Macron wants to pull out the big guns.

UK Conservative MP Simon Hoare: “The upcoming State visit of HM The King to the US must now be cancelled. The civilised world can deal with Trump no longer. He is a gangster pirate.”

This IS the best one yet...

Oh and another set of damning letters today, Mr Jenrick. Seems your claim that you’re sidling over to Reform to ‘fix broken Britain’ is ringing very hollow. Trying to claim some kind of nobility for your shabbiness is just not going to fly.

Richard Tice agreed to replace me on the Laura Kuenssberg show after I had a sudden attack of not wanting to be questioned about my support for the orange turd who is treating NATO allies worse than he treats Russia. #BBCLauraK

This opens up wider questions about how far the UK and Canada in the 5 eyes intel sharing framework as well as other former allies of the United States can still provide the Americans with any sensitive intelligence information at all

Perhaps yes. Because it involves non-Americans. Domestically, it seems he can do anything. It really is incredible that establishing his own private, masked, Gestapo hasn't been an over-reach. Nor transferring the stolen oil money from Venezuela into a private off-shore bank account! 🤷‍♀️

‘I looked exceptional but I was out of breath’: the bodybuilder who switched to mindful movement

This all seems obvious, and Monbiot backs it up with stats. Feels a bit like watching someone in an abusive relationship (our leaders and the billionaires) and feeling the same sense of helplessness and hopelessness about it all.

A thing which always makes me cringe - a 'created by' credit for a scriptwriter who adapts a novel for TV/streaming. I instinctively shout 'you didn't CREATE that, Agatha Christie (or whoever) did'. Retroactively pretending the original author barely did any work is disrespectful.

James Schneider outlines why the special relationship with the US is over and that the UK should be looking elsewhere "The United States is acting in a bullying and gangster-state like way and we are the victims of it"

And while we’re recommending YouTube films, here’s the inimitable @petergeoghegan.bsky.social doing the Lord’s work. Because nothing says ‘free speech champions’ like, erm, going to Court to keep who funds your payroll secret. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP0O...

Just saw it noted that 100% of the world’s Ozempic supply comes from Denmark, as does a somewhat smaller percentage of the world’s insulin. Almost as if it’s really quite a small world!

It’s a real shame that Nigel Farage is too unwell to do interviews the morning after Donald Trump threatens us with sanctions. Here he is with “the bravest man he ever met”. He campaigned to make Trump President, and has spent the last year enjoying all the chaos he has caused.

🇬🇧🇬🇧Just to remind the UK🇬🇧🇬🇧 🇬🇧USE YOUR VOTE WISELY🇬🇧 we could end up with tRump lite

This — THIS — is the tweet on X that brought two Secret Service agents to the woman’s home to interrogate her about her political leanings and activities. Outrageous.

Starmer can’t because he’s not got the safety net of the EU trading block. Yes, another Brexit consequence that has weakened the U.K.’s standing and power in the world (thanks to Trump & Putin puppet Nigel Farage).

So Nigel Farage, who turned up to 1 out of 43 Fishing Ministery meetings as an MEP, who doesn’t hold constituency surgeries, who frequently doesn’t attend PMQs today doesn’t attend his leaders interview on Kuenssberg. It seems he loves contentious shit stirring but not accountability or democracy.
