Macron’s allies say it plainly: Brexit is why Starmer is weak with Trump. Inside the EU, you have leverage, a market of 460m and a trade bazooka. Outside it, you urge calm while others decide. Brexit left Britain weak and Trump knows it. archive.ph/2026.01.20-1...

Gosh, if only there were a constitutional mechanism for removing a president who is mentally ill and unfit to hold office.

The more erratic the USA becomes, the more useful the UK could be to the EU and vice versa. It's not a case of one needing the other more. There are strong mutually beneficial reasons for returning to being part of one club, even if the terms of membership have changed.

“We have embedded a notorious US military surveillance company whose founder is a close ally of President Trump into the heart of our military at a moment in which the US is threatening to invade our NATO ally, Greenland.” – @carolecadwalla.bsky.social on Palantir https://bit.ly/4sHG9al

Fair point from @adambienkov.bsky.social “When Trump last ran for office, there was no shortage of senior UK politicians and commentators who predicted that his re-election would lead to a new era of peace and prosperity for the world.” Where are they now? bylinetimes.com/2026/01/19/i...

As someone who works daily with Europeans and goes there several times a year, things have already changed. The average European views the US as an enemy now. It’s incredibly sad.

When this is all over, every single person who voted for and enabled him should be forced to pay reparations and make a daily apology to the rest of the world.

Fun Fact - The only other person to ever accept a second hand Nobel Peace Prize was… *Checks notes* …Joseph Goebbels.

This should have been done decades ago.

I'm not saying Trump is a Russian asset, just that I can't think of anything he'd be doing differently if he were.

A real shame if this photo went viral again today.

Suppose Joe Rogan and others like him were German in 1933 with their own radio shows? They would have incessantly bashed the Weimar Republic, promoted Hitler as sensible and ignored all warnings from anyone who read Mein Kampf. Now these same guys are pretending be outraged about ICE? Contemptible!

the actual story here is that labour is too chicken-shit to regulate american tech corporations so they're just going to introduce censorship laws instead.

Or to look at it another way, Gaza faces huge challenges from Trump’s peace panel

The statute says they have immunity from prosecution for their actions “…in the performance of their duties.” That does not allow illegal actions outside of their duties—like murdering an innocent civilian.

JD Vance proclaims that all federal police enjoy "absolute immunity" from prosecution for any crime. In other words, Vance is giving the go-ahead for DHS and others to murder anyone, at any time, and without cause, due process, or regard for the safety of others. www.cbsnews.com/video/jd-van...

Jonathan Ross worked for Border Patrol before ICE

Do the videos go to another school?

The UK should offer to send troops to Greenland as part of a joint NATO operation under Danish and UK command. If Trump is serious about security, he'd agree to participate and drop his outrageous threats. Tearing the NATO alliance apart would only play into the hands of Putin.

yeah, he is. and the complacency of establishment & political voices is astonishing.

This is also a field test. If the press lets them muddy the waters on executing a woman in Minneapolis despite multiple witnesses and video recordings clearly depicting what happened, the message they'll take away is that there's nothing they can't get away with. Nothing.

No sleep last night… Can’t get that video out of my head Can believe the lies being told to betray her even in death Can’t believe the mindless lemmings that swallow them up America is lost.

Horrifying to see an American woman shot dead by an ICE agent on a Minneapolis street, and Donald Trump’s ghoulish response is truly chilling. Britain mustn’t follow America down this dark path.

In "aged like surströmming in a festival portaloo" news.

The obvious implication is that this justifies killing her. These people are simply evil.

A big shoutout to @crustnews.com who identified the executioner who killed a 37 year old woman at a ICE control in Minneapolis Minnesota.

These are apparently facial reconstructions of a 2,300-year-old Pazyryk Scythian male and female from the same kurgan in Berel, Kazakhstan and not - as I first thought - that couple I met at a Spiral Tribe soundsystem in 1992 who sold me E that turned out to be paracetamol.

billionaires shouldn't exist. we should be actively trying to eradicate their wealth. they're the minority that actually is destroying civilisation and trying to bring down democracy. not immigrants or trans ppl. billionaires. we need to get rid of them.

I stand with Senator Mark Kelly. “Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders,” Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ), said in a message to active-duty troops last year. This is not sedition, Secty Hegseth.

I have said this before and will say it again: European members of NATO should send a small (token) multinational force to Greenland, to create a speed bump to what Trump might otherwise imagine could be a fait accompli.

I’d like to see a minister answer on-air “how many more child sexual abuse images does Grok have to produce before the government will consider action?”

U.S. Finds Ukraine Didn’t Target Putin in Drone Strike ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Falling for Russian propaganda demands a spectacular degree of stupidity. "Putin is a coloniser in the real world and in the minds of people. He has successfully and thoroughly colonised Trump’s mind." @warinthefuture.bsky.social

Not neutrality. Hypocrisy. Modi shows concern for Putin’s comfort and talks “peace” while Russia bombs homes. And the war is fueled with Indian money: Modi’s government keeps buying Russian oil, turning it into revenue that bankrolls aggression.
