Trump is a petty child.

Donald "Hot Air" Trump wasted a LOT of people's valuable time being completely dishonest about renewable energy in front of the UN on behalf of his oil baron friends yesterday. He claims renewables "don't work", yet the UK has been powered entirely by them recently. abcnews.go.com/Politics/fac...

I think of the fascinating things I've found about the cult of the rapture, is how convinced certain people have been that they've met the criteria to be included. www.newsweek.com/rapture-theo...

The more Trump gets people to argue about medication or migration, the less attention they are paying to his convictions, Epstein, the tanking US economy and his dangerous undermining of the constitution and mechanisms of democracy. Go back to the real topics. www.factcheck.org/2025/09/trum...

Sorry deluded conman, your snake oil isn't wanted here. The only countries currently going to hell are the USA, Russia and Israel. This is what happens when you allow tyrannical would-be dictators to bully and cajole the weak. You all deserve to be stomped on and thrown behind bars.

I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

Who do we think better represents true British values? The Gurkhas, who have loyally fought & died alongside British troops for 200 years from the NW Frontier to Gallipoli, Imphal Kohima, the Falklands? Or Farage & his "blame it all on Forrinahs' skin head shout abouts who do nothing but divide?

One of the greatest ironies of the rapture is that none of the people who keep banging on about it are going to be on the list.

People say "autism never used to exist" and then you go to the Natural History Museum and the exhibit has a caption like "Born in 1762, The Revd [name] was famously irascible, steadfast in his routine, and dedicated his life to collecting 25,000 rare beetle specimens".

Who the hell is allowing this to go unchecked? I do not pay my licence fee to have the BBC become a party political propaganda machine for Reform and effing Farage. 🤬

Lib Dems pass motion to push for full UK/EU Customs Union by 2030 The most certain way of ending the cost of living crisis and of boosting the economy

None of these people should be anywhere near government or any decision-making body. Disgraceful. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Reform - in all of the many guises as the Anti-Federalist League, Ukip, Brexit, is and always has been a ranty shambles that hates Europe and anything foreign but has never had any facts-based policies or proposals. Completely unsuitable for government. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ref...

All conmen's tricks get found out eventually. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Well this is YET ANOTHER REASON why a vote for Reform would be hugely damaging to the economy. Reform & Farage see this as yet another way to attack immigration, yet another easy scapegoat for their blame foreigners policy. But IDLR is skilled city workers and lawyers who make £££ for the economy

You guys, I’m not an economist I didn’t even graduate from college, though I do have an advanced degree (but not a fancy one) and even I know this is not a good sign

GOPers too ⬇️ "Historian Lawrence Britt studied the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) & Pinochet (Chile) and found they had 14 elements in common. He calls these the identifying characteristics of fascism" voxpopulisphere.com/2017/08/23/l...

In addition to their attacks on free speech, shut downs of satirists such as Colbert and Kimmel, & closure of websites which don't suit their false narratives around climate & immigration, Trump's government is now proactively censoring fact-checking on their lies. www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

America, your convicted felon occupying the Whitehouse is desperate to steal your democracy purely out of his own self-preservation. Your freedom and self-determination depends on electing a congress in the mid-terms who will impeach him. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I don't know how all of you feel, but Charles Windsor hosting a convicted felon and lavishing pomp and ceremony upon him makes me wonder why we put up with them. airmail.news/issues/2025-...

BREAKING: Trump says he is designating “Antifa” as a “major terrorist organization.” Such a step being taken this way would be concerning enough, given what it actually is, but, given that Trump sees “Antifa” hiding in every corner of opposition, this could be an extremely alarming escalation.

That's all anyone needs to know about the Trump "state visit".

Seems like quite a moment. This morning, the UK was powered entirely by low-carbon energy, it seems. Yes it's windy and sunny. But it's still a milestone.

Liberal England does seem to be losing the puff from its sails. Cartel Politics and the deceit and dirty tricks of the right mean those who seek fairer and more open democracy are being undermined at every turn. We are sleep-walking into neo-feudalism. www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...

So much for "UNITED" the Kingdom. Robinson's 100,000 hate thugs, many of whom were paid to fly in from overseas, and criminally incited to violence by Musk, could not have been less about unity. www.standard.co.uk/news/london/...

Oh that's right, only megalomaniac murderous dictators feel the need to put up cult of personality banners todesperately try and address their negative popularity rates.

Where have we seen the imposition of the cult of personality before? America, standby for compulsory gold lapel pins with an effigy of your supreme leader. newrepublic.com/post/200469/...

Trump's wild claims about renewables just don't stack up, nor does his advocacy for the fossil fuel industry. Renewables are cleaner, cheaper and increasingly more efficient. We need to loudly reject calls to return to oil and gas and press forward with supporting the renewables industry.

Reform, with 0.6% of all MPs, featured in 25% of BBC’s recent 10pm news bulletins The Lib Dems with 18 times as many MPs as Reform has received one-third less coverage on BBC News at 10. Reform was also allowed to 'make many claims without scrutiny'. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/how...

Elon Musk's comments were actual incitement to violence, why are the Met Police not investigating this with a view to laying charges? www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday. As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.
