So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.

😡😡

When Trump sent someone with all the arrogance and narrow mindedness of JD Vance to negotiate with a regime run by religious extremists he doomed millions to more war, more death and more economic misery. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

It's quite likely that Israel has compromat on Trump. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/...

Is it just remotely possible that Netanyahu is in possession of the same compromising pictures of Trump that Putin holds? Or does he just know how to flatter the ego of an arrogant fragile man to get him to massage it by killing people?

I’ve known Lebanon for three decades. What’s happening now is an invasion. This is Gaza 2.0 – and the world is barely paying attention. @CaroleCadwalladr for the Nerve Link 🔽

1) Since Starmer became leader, Labour Party membership has dropped by over 50%. And falling. 2) since Zack Polanski became leader, GPEW membership has risen by over 200%. And climbing. 3) Now only 25,000 difference in membership numbers between them. #GreenMenace #HopeIsGreen #GreensAreGrowing!

The brave Hungarians who died fighting for freedom in 1956 would be proud of these people and utterly ashamed by Orban's government.

Why do so many politicians fall for the lie that we need to spend more on defence? It doesn't need more money it needs less waste. Cheap drones are knocking out expensive warships in the Ukraine

@greenparty.org.uk up 26% Reform down 7% Green gains council seat in Kent from Reform Feels a very significant indicator of the national mood.

🎉 Green GAIN from Reform! 🎉 💚 Congratulations to Rob Yates on being elected in Cliftonville ward!

Just as there were people who resisted the introduction of inside toilets, seatbelts, women’s votes, lead free toys etc Tice & his party are similarly reluctant to embrace what most people can clearly see is needed. Unimaginative, regressive, fact averse idiots. Let’s never let them run our country.

My Iranian colleague told me today that the people hate the government, however they are a proud patriotic nation & they will defend their country and support the hated government over being attacked. So there you go.

"What we see far too often with Labour councils is they’re building luxury, unaffordable homes that no one is ever going to live in, while communities are knocked down in the name of regeneration." Green Party leader Zack Polanski on Labour’s record on the housing crisis.

Further evidence, if it were needed that drill baby drill means burn baby burn www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The ships aren't moving through the Straits, Netanyahu is still trying to steal land in Lebanon, the oil companies are still profiteering, the ceasefire is incredibly fragile. The economic war isn't going to be all over before Christmas www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What a deadly and costly mess. Trump is responsible for causing damage that will last for decades. He is desperate to finish what he started but there is no easy exit strategy from impulsive arrogant massive misjudgement. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social has called on the govt to tear up the UK-Israel trade agreement after the Israeli strikes on #Lebanon Polanski also called for Keir Starmer to ban the US using UK airspace and said sanctions should be imposed on Israel #VoteGreen www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The last 24 hours have shown what many have said for a long time. Britain's role as an accomplice to Trump's America must end. We must urgently decouple from a rogue US & seek security with allies closer to home. That starts with suspension of the US bombers on British soil.

Today we launch our campaign for the May elections. Locally and nationally, Labour is cosying up to developers and failing to provide the secure, affordable homes we need. We deserve better. On 7th May vote for council homes, rent controls and an end to leaseholds. Vote Green.

Pride comes before a fall. Trump's utter arrogance can only lead to a giant one.

Brexit leaves UK creatives cut off from EU funding and touring, as rising barriers threaten collaboration, careers, and cultural influence | Robert G Davies @europeanmovement.co.uk @cyfathrebwr.bsky.social @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social bylines.cymru/arts-and-cul...

Each foreign university student brings more money into Britain than selling a car abroad. Yet the Starmer government deliberately reduced the numbers harming our economy and pushing Universities towards bankruptcy. All in a futile effort to please Reform voters. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

So Starmer is offering to send British troops to sail close to Iran to enforce Trump's fragile ceasefire? Trump broke it. It is his responsibility to fix it. The UK shouldn't be drawn into a draining forever commitment in a danger zone. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Another altruistic crypto billionaire donates to Reform to help rebuild public services…. As if. This is pure corruption. Buying power and influence, in a bid to loosen regulation and make more money. For themselves. They couldn’t give a shit about the country. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Where to find the words anymore? What to say when Israel continues to behave like this? And no condemnation at all from the UK Government. They carry on business as usual as if Israel aren't carrying out genocides in both Gaza and Lebanon. aje.news/jf7llm

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

Ex Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting under Obama👇🏽

So the Israeli government intends to carry on invading and seizing Southern Lebanon illegally but what's left of the Iranian government thinks a ceasefire there is part of the agreement. Not exactly grounds for great confidence in a secure peace. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A fragile ceasefire deal is unlikely to get Trump out of the mess he has created. My latest analysis for @yorkshirebylines.co.uk

Reckless optimism meets deadly reality Even the most intellectually brilliant military strategists sooner or later end up badly over-reaching themselves By Andy Brown @andybrown1951.bsky.social

BP not only gives up on responding to climate change in any meaningful way - it now won't even let its own shareholders vote on the strategy. Utterly shameful. Don't do business with them. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

It's now been 3 hours since our supposed "ally" Donald Trump threatened genocide on a country of 93 million people. We've had absolutely nothing from the UK government. This doesn't come in a vacuum either - every day the US & Israel have been murdering innocent people.

How on earth can the trip planned by King Charles possibly go ahead with Trump making statements like this?

This is what happens when you don't spray and do very little mowing. Ladies smock, marsh marigolds, primroses, wild garlic and a few tulips and dafs.

Britain made a huge mistake in leaving the EU. The sooner we wise up and rejoin the easier it will be and the less damage we'll have to recover from

Humanity is wiping out creatures that it can never recreate. Better to put our efforts into preserving nature than trying to resurrect some kind of imitation of an extinct one. www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion...

Why do we live in such a childish, stupid country? A country that wastes its money on useless billion dollar aircraft carriers, when it could be spending those tax dollars to actually help its citizens like sane countries.

The president of the United States increases worldwide respect for America’s calm maturity by telling Iran to “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards.” This is a real Trump social media post. Our country is a disgrace.

We could wait years for any results and then lock ourselves into using oil and gas supplies that could be disrupted with one bomb or Britain could more quickly provide battery storage in homes and use the cheap overnight windpower that currently goes to waste. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

After driving Palestinians out of their homes and stealing long held property the Netanyahu government is now allowing forced removal of Christians from their own land. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

This war isn't going to end quickly and the fossil fuel supply crisis will get worse. So the government needs to act quickly to cut consumption and help Britain become more independent from fossil fuels. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
