Trump dropping tariff threats over Greenland 'a good thing' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... It will be different next week. It beggar's belief people pay heed to Trump's fantasies and fairy stories. He spoke to an educated audience as if they were his own sycophants. "..... no wind power in China" 😂

NATO Secretary Rutte said he would use his platform at the World Economic Forum to champion Trump’s work in Gaza and Ukraine. Then he wrote, “I am committed to finding a way forward on Greenland. Can't wait to see you. Yours, Mark,” Can we continue to have ANY trust in Rutte in this role?

“Ministers have failed to grasp the underlying issue which is corporate greed. The only people who will be paying for this are customers and billpayers.” Spot on from Feargal Sharkey 👇

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cp... Clearly this 'Strangelove' mentality takes us into yet another new era of insanity in leadership and empire building. The gloves will be coming off everywhere. Xi and Putin cannot believe how their fortunes have now turned for the better.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c1... Trump vows extra tariffs for UK, Denmark and other European countries until Greenland deal struck. The EU and UK must stand up to this gangster. Not easy but with all bullies it is bound to get worse if we don't. An immediate 10% Tariff reciprocation is required.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr... Robert Jenrick sacked by Tories for 'plotting to defect' News? Dog bites man?

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn... Danish minister says 'fundamental disagreement' with US and Trump on Greenland - BBC News Rasmussen spoke for about 25 mins yet said nothing except clarifying that China had NOT been surveilling Greenland's coast. Another Trump fantasy.

Incredible

Nadhim Zahawi was made Chancellor by Boris Johnson, only to call for a new leader a day later. He backed Liz Truss as PM, before being appointed Tory Chair by Rishi Sunak, only to be sacked over his tax affairs. His defection to Reform UK is another step in an eventful political career.

bsky.app/profile/chri... Now retired after working in Blackpool schools for 20 years, the levels of cyber-bullying, online vioent porn affecting boys attitudes towards girls and social media influences on suicide was off the scale.

BBC News - Tories would ban under-16s from social media www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Labour MUST go with this without making it a political issue. There is massive support for it from all carers of children. Sadly the cons of abuse outweigh the pros of the digital communication benefits intended.

If the US now bars entry to anyone using their free speech critical to Trump, checked by scanning phone-based social media, this will prevent entry to 90 - 95% of potential European visitors and crush their tourism & hospitality industry within 2 years.

This is straight out of Stalin’s Soviet Union: the White House has launched a full-blown January 6 revisionist website, claiming the rioters were “peaceful patriotic protesters,” blaming Nancy Pelosi and Democrats for “security lapses,” asserting that “Democrats staged the real insurrection”

🔎 From February 2025 Trump Isn't Joking About Lebensraum Trump's plans for Greenland, the Panama Canal, Canada and Mexico aren't just idle talk. A senior US insider tells us what to expect www.bylinesupplement.com/p/trump-isnt...

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... The 'Thorny issue' being that Russia don't agree with any of it. Trump returns to his fantasies. Again.

This is the same guy who, as a millionaire made a big fuss and became nasty with staff at the Blackpool Pleasure Beach about 5 years ago because they refused to grant his family free rides. Witnessed by many.

Could the BBC or Sky not create a separate, pay only channel dedicated to Trump? His incoherent, nonsensical ramblings and hatred for everyone dominates most UK news. He is mentally unstable and so dangerous yet our broadcasters give him all that free oxygen.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw... Epstein files released with heavy redactions. I wouldn't build our hopes up for anything revealing enough to trigger further scrutiny. Trump has ensured this will all come to nothing. He's laughing all the way.....

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Again we have another act of shocking barbarism against the wider, innocent jewish diaspora and again the biggest elephant in the room is virtually ignored. Peace-loving jews everywhere should turn to Netenyahu & the genocide he justifies in Gaza for answers.

bsky.app/profile/chri... I'm fairly sure every conversation in the meetings between the major EU leaders will be centred on how effectively we can defeat Russia without US assistance.

I see this too and have to conclude, regretfully we WILL soon be at war with Russia. I wish I was exaggerating or this was all a bad dream. It's also the acid test to finally see if the US military under Hegseth & Trump is really committed to NATO. Or to Putin.

✝️ "An ethnocentric politics legitimising xenophobia, cultural exclusivism and indiscriminate deportations is fundamentally unchristian, as the late Pope Francis repeatedly underlined." https://bit.ly/4rK25Bc

New photos from Epstein estate show Trump, Andrew and Bill Clinton www.bbc.com/news/article... Every time our media try to make this newsworthy it hands Trump the perfect defense of witchunt. These photos imply nothing but wide, socialite associations with Epstein, including King Charles.

Not the cleverest story headline is it? I think only women can have children.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... I find it astonishing so many adults still don't bother getting the annual flu jabs and Covid boosters these days.

BBC News - Reeves speech did not mislead on challenges facing UK ahead of Budget, says OBR official - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... 5th headline down on the bbc news page. Let's see if Chris Mason understands this is crushing to his 'trial by impartial media' approach to real life issues.

Oh. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

Create the narrative, be affronted by the narrative, then denounce the narrative - the circular firing squad nature of journalism now.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Who needs an official Opposition when we have Mason telling us what is right and wrong? We continue to be lumbered with this fusion of opinion being melded into factual reporting.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... We all KNEW this would be the case for years ahead before the last Gen Election. Our media & broadcasters act in shock and horror at the misery most of us face but never grasp how seriously trashed our economy was, following 10 years of waste, corruption & Truss.

Next time you see an account sharing inflammatory posts about Britain, just check they actually live here first 😂

bsky.app/profile/chri... I think it was John Stuart Mill who phrased something like, '..... evil triumphing when good men do nothing'. It has never been so relevant in this 21st Century.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... No, of course he didn't. It's all a political conspiracy between his teachers and over 20 ex-school colleagues. Future PM material? We all wrote off Trump about 10 years ago..........

www.bbc.com/news/article... Will anyone notice any difference? Such a pity. 20 years ago the Telegraph was a serious paper.

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think. New piece from me. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten. "I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

Meanwhile, in Reform's Lancashire CC, the councillor in charge of care homes, owns a private care home, and is closing council care homes. 👀 A resident’s son, a Reform party member, said any move would “kill” his mother. ~AA #NeverThoughtTheLeopards www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd... Many believe BBC News has never been so right wing in it's history, yet here we are being lectured by a convicted rapist, fraudster and modern day fascist about a poorly edited clip of him encouraging an insurrection. There's something very sinister happening here.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

Is it not possible, just once, the BBC can just report on Government plans to improve our lives in dreadfully difficult financial circumstances? EVERYTHING they utter is in perjoritive negative terms, usually in a short term impact tone.

BBC News - Samir Zitouni named as train hero who saved lives during attack www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Perhaps we should insist Farage nominates this gentleman for George Cross.

Incredibly, people still take this bloke seriously when he tells them he'll be terraforming Mars by easter. He's an inveterate liar, a child.

What a sad state of affairs it is when the demands by the far-right online to know the ethnicity and immigration status of a psychopath seem to have been a priority to address, rather than known facts and the well-being of those injured. Sick.

www.instagram.com/reel/DQgaEc7... This is just an incredible first hand testimony detailing what we've been £ supporting over the years.

It must be tough being an ex-Royal you know. Hey, Andy. Get a job. Use your salary and savings then buy a house if you can. You've had your fun so if you don't end up going to jail join the rest of us in the real world. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

BBC News - www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd... Donald Trump lowers China tariffs. In other words, The 100% bullshit from Trump met the calm economic reality from China.
