The only thing I can say about Keir Starmer is thank God he wasn't PM back in May 1940. He will go along dutifully with whatever Trump claims. Canadians would be fools to think this punter would have our back in a showdown with Trump. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

I just decided Bob Mortimer is, in fact, a national treasure There will be no debate on this

God bless Canada!

Bluesky is dying?! Really? Repost if you're still actively using Bluesky and not posting on X. www.spectator.co.uk/article/blue...

Disgusting pieces of shit

Lovely toasty start to the day

December 31 1989 found me in Berlin. The wall had just come down, where to go but a drag club?!?! A friend just sent me this. I’m in a grey silk dj ffs with a red bow tie. VERY 80s. Happy days 🥰

Jeff Bezos once mourned Jamal Khashoggi in public—now the Amazon billionaire is making billion-dollar deals with his executioner, which reveals more about his values than any vigil ever could. More in Status: www.status.news/p/jeff-bezos...

Ugh.

Imagine how much the vain orange ass hates this photo of him… You know what we gotta do! 😂😂😂

Barack Obama reads a Trump speech 🤦‍♂️ youtu.be/J4dkLmG098I

The price per 100 sheets is very on brand

Best explanation I have seen.

Trump is a reactionary in the purest sense of the word. Any perceived slight gets instant revenge reaction. That’s his purpose in accumulating power.

This one was new to me.

Tariffs placed on Chinese imports means we might not get fireworks for the 4th of July. Hooray, said every cat and dog in America.

The entire media circus is enabling his delusions until I assume it just can’t be hidden anymore When is that?

An everyday story of performative cruelty. They have created careers for sadists www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/20...

It’s Election Day, Canada. Go vote Canada Strong.

Mark Carney is asked how the lessons of Brexit apply to Trump's tariff policy. "When you break off or substantially rupture trade relations with major trading partners... you end up with slower growth, higher inflation, higher interest rates, volatility, a lower currency, a weaker economy." ~AA

Michael Spicer at his best youtu.be/U5rFjbdi6lc?...

That was an amazing penny drop

Sweet

Virginia Giuffre, a victim of Jeffrey Epstein who also sued Prince Andrew for sex abuse, has died by suicide: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The late genius Spike Milligan only wrote one novel, the achingly funny Puckoon. Its central subject of the madness of borders is wonderfully appropriate to today. I challenge anyone to show me a more stunning first page

It’s Friday so it’s the Death Star canteen I love this. youtu.be/Sv5iEK-IEzw?...

www.theguardian.com/stage/2024/n... Magicians angry about being fooled by an illusion 🤣

Stone Hinge.

Harvard has some of the best scientists inventing new ways to early detect and cure cancer. But Trump’s ICE locks them in a detention center— for 2 months!

He’s a sociopathic monster Disgusting POS electrek.co/2025/04/20/t...

IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! 🤣🤣🤣 The IEA is denying that they ever backed Brexit!!! Me vs Reem Ibrahim on BBC5Live The Institute of Economic Affairs can see the public has turned against Brexit so much that they're re-writing history to avoid the blame!

A little light in the darkness of no consequences

So Trump got his wall, tight around the entire country The Great Wall of Trump the tariff edition

www.reuters.com/business/aut... Musk grifting again.

Great Tariff Wall of the USA I really don’t think they have thought it through. They really think opinion will trump reality.

This is not good news for Musk globally, and behind the Great Tariff Wall of the USA he has eliminated his democrat consumer base.

Oh, and a very revealing comparison from BYD, the huge Chinese electric car manufacturer: BYD have a million employees and ~110,000 of them (can't remember the exact number) are in R&D - research and development. That's more in R&D alone than Tesla's entire workforce. [4/n]

I hope the Republican Party looks at the Tories and sees that once you’ve ejected any talent there is nothing to attract future talent. They should be out of office for generations

Chef’s kiss

I’m glad I don’t have a job that requires me to listen to the orange monster daily l. I just couldn’t stand it

Miranda Richardson’s Queenie in Blackadder is very trumpian. That tiny throne room and the tyrant thriving on fear. Musk is Raleigh, Vance is obviously Baldrick,

Trump, in slow motion

Queen Elizabeth the first could be quite trumpian. After the armada she confined the sailors to their ships while they died of diseases. This seriously reduced what she had to pay them off

A thrombosis is a slow moving clot. I suggest throm as a new name for the orange felon

Two and a half years on and I’m about to get my life back and complete my first novel for publication in September. One of my first resolutions- take Bluesky a bit more seriously..and also have fun on it!

I think Hong Kong closing the postal route to the USA will be the first instant hardship for American consumers. A LOT of items are going to become unavailable in online stores. They’re already spinning that people don’t need cheap stuff
