Raskin to Patel: "In a few short months, how did you go from being a crusader for accountability and transparency with the Epstein files to being part of the conspiracy and coverup? The answer is simple. You said it yourself -- because of who is on that list."

Goebbles or Miller?

Another thought. Who is the real Jabba the Hut? Does he currently occupy a property on Pennsylvania Avenue

Anyone on here noticed the similarity in appearance between Elon Muck and Q in the Star Trek Franchise. Obviously John De Lancie is an actor playing the part of a inter dimensional psychopath. I’ll leave you to decide what Trump is. Sorry Trekies.

I listened to an account of the actions of so called “settlers” in the West Bank broadcast on BBC World Service last night. Burning property, burning olive groves, terrorising people living in the West Bank and beating one resident to death. Why don’t the media call these people Terrorists?

Farage, says he will remove internet child protection legislation from the statute books & is demanding an apology from a government minister who said his plans would promote the interests of Pedophiles like Saville. What do you think? Should the minister apologise or stand firm. Me pro stand firm.

The over platforming of Reform continues this morning but for a change several other parties are being represented - LibDems and SNP for a change. The broadcast media know we have a point but we need to keep up the pressure. Plurality now. Sign and pass on. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

been reflecting on the famous JFK speech where he said “we choose to go to the Moon”. I wonder if today he might have said “we choose to save our planet”. It seems to me that uprated equivalent expenditure driving the moonshots and the science that went with it would make a hell of a difference.

As usual, I’ve nicked this from somewhere else. Sorry

Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy. Please don’t share.

Nigel Farage decides to be honest about Brexit.

Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.

Fiona Hill: The United States is on a path toward full-on state repression.

This 👇🏼 is what I've been screaming. If you're not paying attention... here it is in all its fullness. Yup; we're on 9!

Just reading here that Jeff Bezos has lost an $88 million satellite. Has he checked behind the bins or under the mat?

In reflecting on the economic consequences of the BBB, I conclude that the combination of tariffs, debt, defunding infrastructure projects, inflation, currency instability, normalisation of lawlessness, tax on the middle classes and loss of medical support etc all points to economic meltdown.

Morning America from over the pond. Happy 4th July. I hope you can enjoy the holiday and use the time to reflect and regroup recalling what the 4th represents. Best wishes.

I see the US Supreme court’s latest ruling on lower court powers renders the US federal legal system completely powerless to regulate the abuse of power by Trump and his bully boys. Best of luck with that America. On step closer to a monarchy and a second civil war if I’m any judge.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

In the 1930’s in Germany when Jews, Romany Gypsies, people with mental illnesses or genetic disorders, trade unionists, communists, liberals and people opposed to Hitler were rounded up and “deported” good neighbours at the risk to their lives tried to stop it. USA today is somewhat similar.

I just said this in response to scenes of a woman being arrested by a uniformed police office in the USA for a peaceful protest but here goes - “if you leave your conscience in the closet when you pull on your uniform, you have no right to wear the uniform in the first place. Use freely

I thought this might ring a bell or two so here goes. There are patriots and there are traitors. Patriots act in the interests of their fellow citizens and the others do what their paymasters demand or act for their own benefit.Where do we think America, and others sit on this spectrum

We’ve all met the pathetic drunk ranting in the corner of the bar. Today, he got on the telly.

Reform is a Limited Company Farage owns 53% It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit” It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget It wants to privatise the NHS & invest in fossil fuels Close the BBC & break International law It’s a scam Please retweet widely

Just so you all know. There is a fake DWP text circulating in the U.K. encouraging people to apply for the winter fuel payment. Delete and report the text it’s a scam. Also pass on the information to anyone who might be vulnerable. These scammers should be caught up with and put behind bars.

Thought I’d lighten the mood. Our garden yesterday evening. Well a little bit of it anyway. Not the WH Rose Garden but at least it hasn’t been paved over by the Orange Curse.

Farage is a longstanding supporter of a private healthcare and insurance model with the NHS retained as a low quality bare minimum service for the poor. Anyone old or with an expensive to insure condition would be mad to vote for him.

Waking up in the U.K. I can’t help noticing that a relatively localised protest being contained by local police against illegal action by ICE has prompted Trump to find the excuse to send in the National Guard. America needs to wake up.

I just read Gaby Hinsliff’s opinion piece in the Guardian “At last a vision of Britishness that we can all get behind”. I confess I recognised the very British self deprecating characteristics she described and found it a delightful critique of how we see ourselves. Worth a read.

Credit where it’s due: Scott Galloway cooked here

My beautiful daughter. My other beautiful daughter was at the chalkface all day at a local secondary school. I couldn’t be more proud of both these wonderful dedicated people. Give a ❤️ if you feel you can.

I wonder what would happen if the world’s press, other than Fox News for obvious reasons, decided they were going to stop turning up to White House Press briefings? I imagine they would want to do so to avoid complicity in spreading fake news and propaganda.

been thinking about Trump’s on/off Tariff threats and wonder whether it’s a cunning plan to enrich his clan. Sell appropriate stocks in advance of an announcement. Make the announcement and watch the stock market tank. Buy stock. Announce no tariffs. Watch the market bounce. Maybe the SEC can look

We have a house guest for a long weekend. Dougie’s family are all off to Centre Parks. His grandad & grandma have sole custody. He is a bit sad but by tomorrow he will be OK. lots of cuddles and extra carrots will do the trick. He says high.

Trump's tariffs hit the West's busiest port - with traffic down by nearly a third - Sky News

I’ve been Thinking about the recent spate of Russian attacks on U.K. organisations. At what point does the west retaliate and impress on Russia that state sponsored cyber crime isn’t free from consequences. Maybe the SIS should come up with a plan.

I’ve been thinking. Dangerous I know. But Idi Amin and Donald Trump are remarkable similar. They seized power. Expelled their own citizens well the ones they didn’t kill. Amin shifted from pro western to something else including pro Russian & died of syphilis well kidney failure.

You imagine that those poor souls who have been illegally exported to the El Salvador gulag are casualties of the shift from democracy to authoritarian fascism. But let’s not forget Nuremberg. There are always survivors and there are always witnesses.

If I were in a position to advise the U.K. Govt, I’d strongly recommend this is the optimum time to strike a deal with the EU. Whether that’s a customs union or some form of association or full reintegration would be for the politicians to decide. Just saying.

Just now in our garden in central England

Top 5 signs @jamieraskin saw in DC today: 1. “Elon Musk is the only undocumented immigrant taking your job” 2. “Neuter your Doge” 3. “Donald Trump, Russian-Owned since 1987” 4. “The Emperor has no clothes and it ain’t pretty” 5. “Buy America: Putin did”

I believe Vance and his ilk believe UK has a free speech crisis - and people are not allowed to speak freely, especially in the non harassment zones around abortion clinics. Lucky they don’t know we have rules about silence in libraries, otherwise they might demand their closure - sound familiar?

Here is another thought for all U.K. and EU consumers. If it’s owned by an American company, if it’s made in America, if it’s made in the U.K. or the EU by an American company, don’t buy it or from them. If Trump wants to fuck around then let’s all let him find out what the consequences are.

I did a quick search of American products on sale in uk supermarkets. I urge everyone to do the same and delete them from your shopping lists

A couple of thoughts re Trumps capricious behaviour. Firstly so called “friends” fairly rapidly become enemies as soon as he perceives they don’t agree with him. His reaction demonstrates deep personal sensitivity and untrustworthy behaviour. Trust is essential to any deal I’ll leave you to ponder.
