shorturl.at/AS0ik The US Supreme Court strikes a blow for US and world consumers by ruling #Trump's tariffs have no legal justification. Trump's only concern is for himself., This congenital liar has cost the world much, and will lie and cheat for as long as the US will let him.

bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn71mlmjn5mo New thinking from the #LibDems. The Liberal Democrats have announced they would break up the Treasury and replace it with a new department of growth based in Birmingham if they were in government.

shorturl.at/qGKfS #Starmer delivers the line “we are not the Britain of the Brexit years any more.”, greeted by applause from the audience. #Brexit 'the greatest self inflicted injury in history' is behind us, for sanity's sake UK must get closer to the EU. #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis

Jim #Ratcliffe, a very rich man who doesn't pay his taxes, shows us how bigoted he really is. #Farage, true to form, seeing the possibility for division & hate, leaps in with eyes closed to stir the pot of loathing. These two deserve each other. #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis #StandwithUkraine

#Mandelson's lies always focused around money, back to the Blair govt. The biggest problem that Andrew Mountbatten #Windsor faces at the moment is deciding on the wallpaper for his new home, a manor house on the Monarch's private estate. UK people want Govt that puts the vast majority at the centre.

#Stanley v Cheltenham tomorrow. Our play continues to develop, together with confidence. Now up to 14th position, this was a dream just a few weeks ago when we were around the bottom of league 2. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

A great match today, #Stanley matching promotion chasing Walsall all the way. The manager is correct, there are no teams in League 2 that we fear. Great save by Ollie Wright in extra time. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

shorturl.at/MqiNA Trump's condescending, contemptuous & disgusting comments give an insight into a twisted mind. Any reasonable empathic person knows that a draft dodger should never denigrate servicemen. Of couse Trump has form, in fact he's denigrated US servicemen in the same breath as others.

#Trump's incoherence & irrationality really coming home to roost. He threatens the existence of Nato by pushing for control over #Greenland, even though the people of Greenland don't want US domination. He imposes tariffs but wants cooperation from the same countries on #Gaza!!

#Gaza 'Board of Peace' raises many questions. Put aside the wild delusional rhetoric of #Trump & we have a proposed Board to develop Gaza with not one person from Gaza on it. Such arrangements used to by called colonialism. Trump is more concerned with greed, personal aggrandisement and narcissism.

#Stanley v MKDons tomorrow. The team are rested and ready to go. The transfer window is worrying, but it seems that Ollie Wright and Isaac Heath are staying, great news for the club. To continue the push into the top half of the table we need good players. C'mon #AccringtonStanley.

shorturl.at/VAZdK Nadhim #Zahawi, his peerage rejected by the Tories, predictable joins #Reform, which is rapidly turning into a care home for distgruntled Tories. Zahawi has a history of problems re paying tax, perhaps this is an apt move for him. #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis #StandwithUkraine

shorturl.at/gjhgz The UK is one of the most unequal advanced countries in the world. It is therefore distressing to report that Trinity Hall Cambridge is to favour admissions from elite private schools. This is a dark day for fairness. #ComprehensiveFuture #CASE #fairness #nosnobbery

'We've had enough of this US President' said a Greenlander on BBC Today. No wonder, a narcissist, liar, and an empaty desert isn't an appropriate leader. Greed of course enters here. Formost in current US thinking will be the billions of $ of precious metals that belong to the people of #Greenland.

shorturl.at/f0CRj Forbes says #Trump's wealth soared since he began his 2nd term. Trump rolled back regulatory enforcement of crypto & signed legislation favourable to the industry, ensuring he would personally benefit from conflicts of interest. Many would say corruption. #Truth #Fairness

shorturl.at/scP2D #Brexit Estimates suggest UK's GDP is approx 5.2% smaller than it would have been if it had remained in the EU, with investment being 13.7% lower and goods trade being 13.6% lower. Financial strain on public finances estimated at £19 billion, or £145 million a week. #RejoinEU

WOW. Notts 0 Stanley 1, we're climbing the table like a turbo charged McLaren. We're a transformed team from a few weeks ago, confidence breeds confidence. Passing, shape, balls into the box etc, other teams are taking note. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

shorturl.at/vyqcc PolitiFact named 2025 the Year of Lies. The last 10 years have been an ugly era 4 facts, a drumbeat of untruths and near-constant charges of "fake news" from the decade’s most influential player, President Donald Trump. Exacerbated by the echo chambers of social media. #ReloinEU

A “historic vote” took place in the Commons yesterday, after a 100-100 tie the speaker's casting vote given to begin negotiations on joining a bespoke customs union with the EU . A great victory for Liberal Democrats, for the economy of the UK, for Europe & the world shorturl.at/W75mC #RejoinEU

Breaking: The US lost 32,000 jobs in November, far worse than expected. Small businesses were the hardest hit.

tinyurl.com/3fazb75v Trump plans 2 meet Putin in a few days. Europe needs 2 be there too, a Europe ready to use its economic power to ensure that there is no appeasement from Trump, that Ukraine was invaded and that it has the right to self determination. #StandwithUkraine #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis

shorturl.at/VqtyR Morgan Stanley relocated hundreds of bankers & billions of pounds 2 Frankfurt 2 sidestep UK’s shock EU departure. Over 440 City companies followed suit, moving almost £1tn between them – roughly 10% of the entire UK banking system. We must fight, fight & fight again 2 #RejoinEU

getting-out-of-the-hole.uk Trade growth with distant countries cannot make up 4 Brexit losses. Trump’s chaotic trade policy, China’s turn towards import substitution since 2017, & dysfunctional World Trade Organisation make a trade policy reliant on non-European markets a bad bet. #RejoinEU

Nigel Farage wants to turn Britain into a version of Trump's America. The Liberal Democrats won't let him. We will stand up for a decent, tolerant and caring country.

the liberal democrats have once again outflanked Labour to the left. incredible things are happening in the UK.

The BBC isn’t perfect but it belongs to all of us and plays a key role holding the powerful to account. The Liberal Democrats will keep defending the BBC against those who want to destroy it, both from the inside and outside.

Bit of London (but maybe also national) politics: former Lambeth Mayor and longstanding Labour Councillor Tina Valcarcel has defected to the Liberal Democrats, citing disillusionment with her former party.

"Trans Awareness Week: Liberal Democrats reaffirm support for trans rights" www.scenemag.co.uk/trans-awaren...

Eastbourne MP Josh Babarinde has been elected President of the Liberal Democrats.

The irony of Danny Kruger accusing the BBC of left-wing bias when Reform UK - with just 5 MPs - gets more airtime than the Liberal Democrats, who have 72 MPs. The BBC doesn't have a left-wing bias.

If Labour is boasting about making the UK as hostile as possible for refugees then they’re basically saying they agree with Farage. That mainstreams his views, mainstreams his party’s open racism & will push voters towards him, not bring them back towards Labour. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

#Stanley v Bristol Rover tomorrow. Last week's match should give us confidence. We created chances, and dominated the first half. Former Stanley player Gary Roberts paid tribute to Stanley's fighting spirit, which says a lot for the way we played. C'mon #AccringtonStanley.

“In its first formal review of UK trade policy since Brexit, the WTO found that UK trade performance had weakened since the 2008 financial crisis, with Brexit named among the chief causes of a marked slump in goods trade since 2018” God, failure is tedious… www.ft.com/content/8f4d...

Even Elon Musk's biased Grok estimates the cost to UK of Brexit at about £300bn a year (about £60bn in tax). All the 'black holes' we have are just Brexit. Stop filling them in with tax rises and Public Service cuts and just get rid of Brexit.

Fine definition

Chesterfield 3 Stanley 3 A great fighting draw from Stanley. Stanley dominated the first half, leading 2 - 1 at half time. Second half more even. . Chesterfield were awarded a penalty in the dying minutes. Wright executed a superb low dive to deny Chesterfield.

write.atspace.cc/writers-cramp Take a look at Wittgenstein's Brown Book (Eminent Writing Two from main menu), then the Guestbook. Interesting that #Wittgenstein begins the brown Book with Augustine.

The UK was instrumental in creating the ECHR. Now the Council of Europe is ready to reform it we should be leading that conversation, not walking away from it. Leaving the ECHR now would be a profound mistake.

I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

#Stanley v Chesterfield tomorrow. Our FA Cup performance should give confidence. Keeping shape seems to be an important element in Stanley's success. This enables sound defence and balls into the opponents box. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

shorturl.at/lzJOq Would you believe it? Well, yes, you would. The controlling Reform group on Lancs County Council has plans to close five council-run care homes and five day centres and moving residents into the private sector. This is a heartless policy. Pecuniary interest also suggested?

shorturl.at/Dp6dZ YouGov poll shows UK voters back closer relationship with Europe as UK & EU reset relations. Recent surveys reveal most Britons think that Brexit has been more of a failure than a success (62%) & that it was wrong to vote to leave the EU (56%). #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis

shorturl.at/hxUeJ The Andrew Mountbatten Windsor settlement shows a disgusting level of inequality. Mr Windsor will receive an initial payment to cover his relocation to Sandringham, plus an annuity many times more than his £20K navy pension. A Republic based on morality must be considered.
