Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.

There is 0 doubt in my mind that if in power in 1940, Trump would have said that Hitler wants peace and that GB should get rid of the war mongerer Churchill to make way for peace.
Nah. It was stolen. They admitted to it. They stole the election the same way they insisted that democrats did. Except, narcissists have a tell, they can’t imagine anyone behaving differently than they would. No empathy. So they project their failures onto others, telling on themselves.
2,284,296 votes was the difference between Trump and Harris. Trump received 49.95% to Harris 48.4%. Non voters an 3rd party voters made a huge difference.
So did millions of voter roll purges and bullet ballots. If you believe Trump got 77 million legitimate votes, then I have oceanfront property you might be interested in.
Unfortunately, I do think 77 million voted for him. Three million more than last time. Voter roll purges and extreme gerrymandering are huge problems that disenfranchise the voters in the US.
Who are you talking to? There’s nothing he has to do to be the final straw. The final straw was November 8, 2016. As a matter fact, the final straw for me was 1989. So I don’t know who the fuck you’re talking to. I’m not the representative of the entire United States. Jesus wept.
There is no manner in which you could ask that question of me personally without me getting pissed off. Good faith or not. That question is wholly inappropriate.
If you mean by fake and hate News, I‘m with you…
And don’t forget the white Karens who vote him, because they are full of shit: „farmers who hoped Trump is hurting others and now they realize, nope he will destroy the whole western world, but they even can’t get to this point, because of stupitity.
No. I mean by Elon Musk and republicans purging voter rolls in key states. But sure, the media didn’t help with their capitulation and knob bobbing. And the joke votes and the many many many manymanymany no empathy having white people. They didn’t exactly help. But I was referring to Musk there.
The good ones want out. I hope some stick it out and help those of us who can’t leave. If midterms happens, if they don’t get messed with, we might have a chance. Otherwise France 1793 will have an encore.
It's a trend I'm seeing across the globe, this "right-wing" movement. I hope it stops in Germany. This really shouldn't happen to us here again. But take care of yourself.
No, 1/3 voted for 47, but I don’t think this is what they expected. Those who didn’t vote may just be regretting that decision. The awakening is just beginning.
He's not apologizing, he is letting the whole world know, especially trump, that Ukraine has friends, lots of friends.....
And trump (and us by association) is fucked
Since the puppet government won't, it makes sense that an allied partner would say democracy to democracy, sometimes America chooses every other option until we finally choose the right one. They've already staged an intervention with the felon in Trump 1, I doubt we are going to get another one.😢
The only silver lining here is that Europe is more unified tbh since now they're more aware of the fact that a racist in Michigan has an outsized amount of political power compared to hundreds of people in NYC
Sometimes silver linings matter because targeted boycotts can change American politics. Canada to the midwestern red states American economy (not buying booze or cars) drop dead. It will have an overall effect, but it is enough to get their attention.
That guy staying in our White House and his side-kick should be required to watch this. Maybe they can learn how to speak to a real leader of a country.
So wonderful to see professional diplomats in action, truly caring about what is said and without putting each other on the defensive!
Prime Minister Starmer and President Zelenskyy know how it’s done!
Just wonderful! Loved the hug too! 😎
It also speaks a lot to Zelensky’s character that he is not out making public statements about what he is probably feeling right now. I cannot imagine the depth of his fear for his people and utter betrayal by the US.
Very soon Europeans will have to stop applauding Zelensky and paying tribute to the Ukrainians. They must no longer stand alone. The weapons supplied by Europe will have to be delivered one at a time to the shoulders of men. This is the price of wanting to live on the side of the free world. Courage
Glad this is being seen in America.
I've not known anger ever towards the USA (Trump) amongst everyone I know as I did last night. I really sense something has changed after that. 🇺🇦🏴
Watching this, makes me want to be a British citizen. So ashamed and ANGRY to have fascist, corrupt, clowns as leaders of our country now. Truly a dark day in the USA.
Sorry, was trying to be diplomatic on a touchy subject for Democratic leadership and too many of their fellow elected representative and senators. Rapidly needing to grow a pair would be more appropriate in their case.
Precisely. Less than 30% of the vote went to Kamala, therefore the vast majority of voters either voted for Trump or didn’t care enough about your democracy to vote against him. So quite frankly the rest of the world is getting tired of people pushing the bs line that “most” of you didn’t want this
That doesn’t account for the number who didn’t vote. More people didn’t vote than voted for either Trump or Harris. A minority of a minority is not the get out of jail card you apologists seem to think it is.
Starmer a spineless suck-up. Canada needs to examine our relationship with the Pommies. Apparently the sacrifice of our soldiers defending GB in two world wars does not count for much. Up the Republic!
Yesterday your Prime Minister was asked about Canada while meeting with Trumpler. He castigated the reporter accusing them of trying to create a wedge between him and Trumpler. And said nothing about Trumpler attack on our sovereignty and the tariffs. That is what I am on about. Starmer is a git.
The British people have more moral standing and courage in the imperceptible flakes of skin they shed every day than the orange cunt and his pathetic eye-shadowed dweeb have shown in a lifetime.
Until November, 2024, when too many Americans stopped thinking for themselves and voted on soundbites. And it will bite them, is already beginning to bite them but most are still not aware of that.
I can't tell you how comforting I find this, as a Brit I was sickened and horrified at the events yesterday and I'm pleased Starmer has shown Zelenskyy decency and respect.
I kept hoping Zelensky would punch Vance in the face.
It was the most disgusting display I’ve ever seen with scumbag trump, and that’s saying something.
We need to take back the house and senate and impeach both of them. I’m so ashamed of being an American. 😞
Rest assured, many of us in the U.S. also are buoyed by Starmer and the U.K.'s steadfast support of Zelensky (and Ukraine), and are disgusted by our present administration's craven abandonment of Ukraine and embrace of the Russian despot.
My husband is actively looking for a job outside of the US.
Canada would be a great option. A bit cold but at this point idc. We live in a very red town inside a very red state. And it sucks. Our neighbors know we’re democrats too. We don’t feel safe even with security cameras and guns. 😏
Oh my goodness! That's awful! I'm 💔 that millions of decent, honourable Americans have to be tormented by these terrible, degenerate people on a daily basis😥. Sending hugs from 🏴.
They remind us every day that we’re in the minority and they “have the power.”
It’s like my ex-husband who always had the cards in his favor until I met my husband who helped me, because he had a powerful lawyer too. My ex changed real quick after that.
Fué una vergüenza, un despropósito indigno lo de Trump. Orgullo y respeto por el Reino Unido, me quito el sombrero! lo de hoy (o ayer) con Zelenski. Tenemos que ir todos juntos. Gracias!
A much different scene than what we saw in the Oval Office. Trump/Vance tag teamed Zelenskyy while Rubio sat by with an OMG look on his face. Trump/Vance sold out the American people so he could settle a score because Zelenskyy wouldn't do as he asked and find dirt on Biden in Trump 1.0.
From the outset, the meeting was not a negotiation - it was an ambush. Trump and Vance did not approach the discussion as allies working toward a common goal, but as political figures looking to undermine Ukraine’s position.
Zelensky has broad support in the UK. Sadly there are some Tories hell bent on grovelling to Trump that will follow his rancid path.
And then of course that utter disgrace Farage.
It wasn't long ago that Europe was in the throes of WWII. Canada and the US eventually came as reinforcements and Germany was defeated. It was a coalition that was able to suppress the axis forces. Today, Ukraine needs just the same support.
A declaration of war by Canada against Germany was made by order-in-council signed by George VI, King of Canada, on 10 September 1939, seven days after the United Kingdom and France had also entered a state of war with the Nazi regime. published in the canada gazette
TIL, I knew Canada joined the battle much earlier than the US, but not that early. It makes sense with the monarch being our head of state. Thanks for the information.
Canada was there at the start, just like India, Australia & NZ.
The US came in only when Germany declared war on them. Loans to be arranged and weapons to be sold. Business is business. Some things don't change.
That said, there were plenty of US citizens that joined up
Even if he is not being truthful about this, he at least had the sense to be reassuring towards Zelensky. Trump just talked as if Putin had his hand up his ass working his mouth. He has no decorum or subtlety or sensibility or self-awareness.
Not sure vancehole is skiing, reception in VT was overwhelming unappreciative of him enough that even FOX covered it, reporting he left to an undisclosed location.
Waitsfield, VT peaceful protest this morning. People lined the street on both sides- more than a mile. This is a few miles from where Vance was skiing. I hadn't heard that he left?
Vermonter here. Vance and family had to “move to an undisclosed location”. I imagine some Vermonters will be disappointed if they cannot mogul slope bust this mogul asshat.
I suggest his Intelligent open minded and classy wife cold him for what he did.. and she should be ashamed and embarrassed for what her Vancehole husband is doing and done to PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY 💙💛💙💛
I keep telling my dad that the best way to deal with Trump & Musk is to convince them to make the history books by landing on Mars. If the rocket makes it, they'd end up killing each over who gets to be first.
Please ... don't tease me with this. Is it real? Vermont is an ass-kick state who resists. They held out against Wal Mart for so long. I can see them showing how they feel.
I'm googling now.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Besides the anger and shame I feel. Zero confidence in our security. This double standard they possess is ridiculous. Left and right people are losing their jobs and healthcare. And these asses are vacationing. Again. They really don’t give a shit. And to all that still support the T/V team. ⬇️⬇️
The UK showing how it’s done. I didn’t think it was possible to hate the Maga cult losers any more than I already do, but because of that ridiculous show they put on in the oval office, I‘ve reached a new level of hate for these idiots.
Did you pick up the part no one is talking about? Cheeto Hitler said a bomb could land on your head right now , to Zelensky. That is a threat . Cheeto is disposable... Whoops , typo
despicable.
I’m so deeply ashamed of our country. For maybe the first time ever, I literally can’t find words to express how horrified I am to be an American in this moment. We use to be the pinnacle of integrity, respect, valor, honor. We are none of those anymore.
It’s telling that Starmer points out the public support for Zelenskyy. Starmer is happy not to be the centre of attention but with Trump the only person that matters is Trump.
That's how you treat someone who's country has been attacked by a murderous dictator like Putin and is asking for your help you help them and don't ask for anything in return or attack them for what they wear or think they haven't thanked you enough
Very good to hear this. But where was this kind of resolve when he was at the White House? He couldn’t even come to Canada’s defence when asked about the disrespectful comment about the “51st state!
Impeach! Putin is celebrating his hold on Trump and Vance!!

This is what a statesman does! Bravo Starmer and the UK. I am ashamed of our leaders and the MAGAS that support them. Americans do not side with Putin!
Not a fan of Starmer, but he played this perfectly and deserves a lot of credit for it.
Anything that brings out the humanity in people is a good thing.
Only half of America.
The other half, the side I am on, are educated and in no way fooled. Millions of Americans, including me, have been screaming from the rooftops about this con man for nearly a decade. Fighting like hell to keep felon47 out of the WH today America is Germany 1933.

Not suddenly… decades of Fox News’ “caravans are coming” “the mooslims” “thugs looting footlocker” “blue hair ladies”
and “tha gaaaays” = metastasized into mediocre white male fragility overcompensating their small dick energy through greed, authoritarianism, racism and all the other ‘isms. & Obama!
Racism, some of the more disturbing phobias, too.
Somehow people have been fooled into thinking immigrants and poor people are leaching off the government. It has been the rich this whole time.
As above with a good dollop of complacency thrown in. ‘It’ll never happen here’ There’s not that many racist misogynists ‘. Waiting for a mythical someone else to save you won’t work this time - you are the someone else and you can do it. In fact, you are the only ones who can.
The GOP has been trying to dismantle public education since the 90’s. This is the end result of it. Think of the dumbest people you went to school with and go check their socials. Bet you they voted for Trump and think he’s done nothing wrong
I don’t think they believe he’s on hitler’s side. They just like the chaos and drama felon47 brings and how mad he makes everyone. Their lives are full of chaos and that’s all they know.🤷♀️
That to me is so important and the rot has been setting in for decades - it is the outcome of a series of choices to not invest in quality teaching regardless of people's family or geographical background. We have a similar lack of investment in our youngsters in the UK, and the results are there.
Nothing suddenly about it. The Tea Party turds joined forces with the racist birther to get the Chump Train rolling. Picked up a lot of dunces along the way.
And THAT's how it should have been done here in the U.S. but we now have a dictator-wannabe who is a sociopath (a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience).
It was a BS act to show daddy putin he is listening. Can't have putin showing the naked pictures of Melania on Russian TV for the next 24 hours , again.
Now that cheeto Hitler is in the office, the world would report on that. We need to show those on TV from the floor of the House. Moscow marge?
Of course Ukraine said thank you to the people of the US, to Biden, to Congress over and over. Trump's pissed because he wants a 'thank you' specifically to HIM. Because it is always about flattering and being obsequious to HIM.
Trump tried to withhold aid to Ukraine during his first administration and Vance,as Senator, voted against aid to Ukraine. Zelenskyy has thanked the American people many times. He certainly does not owe any thanks to tweedle dee and tweedle dumb.
It was just so crass and cruel and stupid and shameful. To bully a heroic man who has been going through absolute hell for years, watching his people die, is unforgivable. The world is disgusted.
The subtle thing I picket up on.. look at the flags. Compare the environment of both meetings. One is more inviting, and the other was more intimidating.
The entire "America First" was to screw our allies and align ourselves with those who could give us something, not necessarily security. So here we are and are surprised?

The EU and Britain are posed to become the leadership for democracy in the world. The Orange Felon has aligned America with its kleptocratic authoritarian dictators.
Putin's Russia has possibly never been in a weaker position than right now. The master deal maker Trump says Ukraine has no cards, but in fact, so long as it has allies' support, Ukraine is in a much better position than Putin. Russia should be forced to accept a peace deal on Ukraine's terms.

Nobody likes to be reminded of their sordid past.
Mitterand even warned the Ukrainian President, that Ukraine would be betrayed once they had handed their nuclear arsenal over to Russia.
Fast forward 20 years and Obama Peace Prize obliged.
I used to think of France's position on NATO as wayward and uncooperative, but I'm coming to respect their approach.
"There are no journalists left. There are only opinions makers."
