I think this would suit Trump and his enablers "If the United States decides to militarily attack another Nato country, then everything would stop - that includes Nato and therefore post-second world war security,"

Marina Hyde takes aim at Jared Kushner…🎯 “Perhaps we should think of it as a hybrid doctrine: dealpolitik. Money, power, carve-outs, carve-ups – as the classic EA Sports slogan used to say … it’s in the game.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The recruitment of spies has come a long way. Nowadays you advertise openly. Would love to see the stats on applications. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Tip of the iceberg I fear. For every such admission there are likely thousands of other instances where police & security services in Western democracies have illegally surveilled journalists. An important concession nonetheless. 💪 www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/art...

America is sliding inexorably in to civil war. It is the logical end point of a toxic process where up has become down and bad has become good. Voices like Karen Attiah need to be heard, not stifled. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/s...

Look, I absolutely detest Charlie Kirk and his appalling opinions, but I extend to him and his family all the courtesy that he has denied others and hope he recovers. Shooting people in cold blood is bad. Always. Evil and bad. And none of us want to live in a world where that's celebrated.

In a world dominated by doom and gloom - a good news story. www.thetimes.com/sport/boxing...

Five things to remember about war:

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Given Russian aggression this just makes a whole lot of sense www.ft.com/content/f71b...

We didn’t forget about journalist Jamal Khashoggi, did we? Murdered inside a Saudi consulate. Dismembered. Then a full-on coverup, sanctioned at the highest levels.

Elite status doesn’t excuse war crimes. The honour of a regiment isn’t preserved by silence but by confronting its darkest chapters. Britain like Australia must face this head-on. Not with spin. With truth. When you unleash the dogs of war… www.thetimes.com/uk/defence/a...

🇺🇦📞 Zelensky spoke with Australian PM Anthony Albanese, thanking him for continued support and discussing Ukraine's needs, including air defense and strengthening the AFU. The leaders also focused on the importance of releasing prisoners and agreed to stay in constant contact.

🇦🇺🇺🇦 I spoke with Prime Minister of Australia Albanese. Strengthening air defence remains our key priority to protect our people, and we count on our partners’ support. We also discussed ways to further enhance Ukraine’s security and defence capabilities.

Who else is just LOVING THE SHIT out of Australia today?

Bravo, Australia! Another Labor win. Like Canada, their conservative leader lost his seat. Kicking the right wing to the curb one Commonwealth country at a time. 🇦🇺🇨🇦

Some really good insights here on how Australian democracy differs from American. It reinforces my belief that we need to have a close look at the way Australia does these things.

Nice job, Australia!

🗣This is the leadership the world needs right now—two nations standing firm against extremism, division, and disinformation.🙏 🗣Canada🇨🇦 & Australia🇦🇺 are proving that unity, compassion, and shared democratic values still have a place in this world🌍. ✔️Together🫂, we protect democracy. #cndpoli #auspol

Australia’s centre-left prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has won a second term with a crushing victory over the opposition, whose rightwing leader, Peter Dutton, failed to brush off comparisons with Donald Trump and ended up losing his own seat.

A thing of beauty….🇦🇺👌

Here we go!

Tension is mounting… 🇦🇺

Australia 🇦🇺 goes to the polls today. We currently have a Labor government and, with the common decency of the Australian people permitting, we will continue to do so after today. We will rebuff everything Trump stands for and be a beacon for democracy and the rule of law in the Pacific. 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇬🇧
