“Whether it be Farage flying to the USA to call for sanctions that would hammer Britain’s economy, or his party treasurer jetting off to Nicaragua to do business with people sanctioned by the British state, they’re incapable of acting in the national interest.” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

I think the U.K. should review all contracts with Palantir.

This is just brilliant on Trump’s inconsistency.

There’s a climate crisis causing mayhem across the world so of course Trump decides now is a great time to blow up energy facilities. Apart from the moral issues, it’s the stupidity that gets me. Please stop electing elderly men with no stake in the future.

Has the world finally decided to stand up to Trump? Have they realised the Emperor is wearing no clothes? This latest war has exposed him. Pity it took something so awful. And shaming for America.

"A government that can’t make the case for labour mobility with its closest neighbours and biggest trading partner is a government without a model for economic growth" Punchy words from @stellacreasy.bsky.social in Brussels, ones greeted with quite some interest by EU folk.

I cannot find words to express how angry I am with Trump for his idiotic war. And now the anger at Vance and Trump for their relentless insults towards their allies just makes me determined that not one British serviceman or woman should sacrifice their lives for this imbecile. Not one 😡😡😡

I mean everyone had heard of the Straits of Hormuz, apart, it seems from Trump and his band of morons.

When Trump, Vance and Rubio were busy slagging off their allies and cosying up to Putin, they didn’t think they might need help did they? Maybe ask Putin to help.

Reform is too thick to hide their real motive for power. It’s not to make us wealthier. It’s not to improve our public services. It’s not even to manage immigration. It’s to wildly enrich themselves by dumping the rules and regulations that protect us from exploitation, discrimination and risk.

Mary Trump on Iran: “This is a nightmare of America’s own making. This is what happens when you put in charge people as incompetent, greedy, corrupt and quite frankly stupid as Donald Trump. Those who have never learned from history because they’ve never learned history” #cdnpoli

The sheer imbecility of the Trump administration beggars belief.

Can anyone explain Trump’s love affair with Putin? I do not buy kompromat theory as what could Putin possibly have on Trump that’s worse than what is known or that Trump wouldn’t flat out deny as ‘fake’. So what is it?

FACTS: Net Zero barely nudges your bill. Fossil‑fuel wars send it through the roof. So when Farage and his ilk slags off renewables while fanning conflict, remember who actually hikes your costs.

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

How demeaning for the USA to have such an inadequate man in this position. Appalling.

I completely agree with Alex here.

Will Iran’s ally, Russia, come to their aid against Putin’s friend Donald Trump 🤔

Oh Tom Tugenhadt she didn’t ask you to mourn Khamenei, she asked if the action was legal 😡 as usual no challenge from BBC. Soft approach to Tories again #bbcbreakfast

Exactly. What is the attraction of elderly crooks?

Well, looks like Hillary and Kamala were right.

The problem when you have leaders like Netanyahu and Trump, both with past crimes threatening to come back to bite them, is they use war as a distraction from their own crimes. Which is very bad news for world peace. Let’s stop electing these people.

People in Clacton are calling Nigel Farage: Nigel Mirage.

The guy who told Americans that injecting bleach into our bodies may cure Covid is now offering to help Greenlanders with their medical care.

Canada vs USA in ice hockey final at the Olympics- a sport I know nothing about and usually don’t care about- but COME ON CANADA 🇨🇦!!!!!!

Very good from @verybrexitproblems.bsky.social

This👇👇👇 we need to grow up and face up to the complexities of our world. British voters and media want ‘personality’ politics where a big character waves a magic want. Lazy, greedy Farage would be 1000 times worse.

Starmer is not a politician. He came to politics late. I think this should give pause to all who criticise professional politicians. IMO the world is getting more complex, massive challenges face all western countries. People who think there’s an easy solution are deluding themselves.

Ads during scrums are so annoying. The Americanisation of sport 😡 #sixnations

Trump wibbling about windmills- the guy has lost whatever marbles he ever had.

When even mild mannered Starmer rebukes Trump you know he’s really gone too far. The Europeans have had enough. The US is beyond stupid, it’s strength was its alliances and it has blown it big style.

“…and so the human race suffered a worldwide economic collapse and then a global conflict that wiped out their species, just because one ruler went to war because they did not win a peace prize” - Cautionary Tales from around the Universe, updated edition.

President Trump is 80, has anyone told him he can’t take his money with him. Normal people in old age usually think of legacy but not Trump, no, his greed knows no bounds.

Trump is now so far off his rocker it’s beyond a joke. Putin must be delighted with his work.

1️⃣ He didn't say that. 2️⃣ He said it, but you misunderstood him. 3️⃣ He said what you understood, but he was just trolling. 4️⃣ He was serious but he's just negotiating, not going to do it. 5️⃣ He's going to do it for grand strategy reasons I've invented. 6️⃣ Look what you liberals made him do.

I am assuming that as European and Canadian leaders met to discuss Greenland that Starmer’s statement was what was agreed? Am I wrong?

Hard to see how more wrong the geopolitical case for Brexit could have turned out

Right America, it’s time you got a proper President. This joke has gone on long enough now.

Anybody else fantasising about the whole of Europe having a Love Actually moment with this US President? The only trouble is it suits Putin.

This👇👇👇 💯

Trump is just a thief. He steals oil, land, Nobel medals. What an embarrassment to the USA. At this rate America will be Billy no mates. But then he’s pleasing his idol Putin by breaking up NATO.

I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.

Thousands of brave patriots in Iran take to the streets to protest the lawless, authoritarian regime riding roughshod over their rights. No, wait. This is thousands of brave patriots in Minnesota taking to the streets to protest the lawless, authoritarian regime riding roughshod over their rights.

I’ve been thinking about why the hatred of Starmer is so extreme. I have concluded it’s a backlash for tax on private schools/farm IHT. He’s made a very modest attack on wealth and the wealthy are mobilising the masses through their media control. That’s it. Britain is owned and controlled by rich.

By the end of this term Europe will be so sick of US we will have moved on. He’s trashing America’s reputation for a generation.

America needs another Revolution and get your constitution right this time. You have messed up big time with Trump.
