The US president's landmark tax bill will add $2.4tn to the US deficit by 2034, the congressional fiscal watchdog has warned, in the latest blow to Trump as he seeks to push the legislation through the Senate. https://on.ft.com/4ktGid7

Just look! As Keir Starmer cosies up to the EU, British citizens are being treated like dirt by foreigners. Whilst on holidays poor Susan Edwards was discriminated against & humiliated due to CULINARY BULLYING. This would never have happened in Boris’s day. SORT IT OUT STARMER!😡

💙😳😳😳😳😳O M G ! Someone please take his phone away!!!!💙

1/ To understand Trump, you need to understand that, at the end of the day, he’s a bully. His childhood was filled with violence against his fellow classmates and he was expelled from multiple schools for his violent conduct toward others. That’s why #TACO is hitting hard with Trump…

Reminder that Farage described Liz Truss’s disastrous mini-Budget (the one that sent mortgages spiralling) as “the best Conservative budget since 1986”

The more you find out about the IPP scandal the more shocking it becomes and it’s happening RIGHT NOW in this country. We have to end it

Retiring US Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger tells @CBSMornings - the pardons of 1500+ Capitol rioters were a "slap in the face" to police and his department =====>

UK message to the UN security council today: We call for the hostages' immediate release Let aid in, enable the UN to operate. Now. We reject the Israeli government's intention to take control of the Gaza strip. Permanent forced displacement is a breach of international humanitarian law. #bbcpm

Investors in nations with tax regimes that the US deems unfair would face higher tax rates on income earned in the US if the tax bill that’s making its way to the Senate becomes law

Seriously Who does he thinks believes him? Desperate stuff.

So, have you told the truth about Brexit, immigration, social care, ‘levelling up’, tax, NetZero… about 14yrs abusing power? No. You spend your life on a disinformation hellsite and you don’t call out “the lies and delusions that dominate Westminster” because your party is neck-deep in all of them.

The IEA, the dark money pressure group that inspired Truss’ mini budget, is (finally) under investigation by the Charity Commission

Oh.

Just when you think Israel could sink no lower in it's genocidal attacks! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

This is really pathetic and petty from the government. A simple thing that would help restore nature. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Russia's attempt to seize Kyiv in Feb 2022 failed due to heroic resistance by Ukrainian defenders, many ordinary people. For Trump to say it was because Russia's tanks got stuck in the mud isn't just factually inaccurate, but insults the bravery of those defenders. #FactsMatter #StandWithUkraine

Disgraceful from a Labour government. Labour led the world in moving development aid to 0.7% now it abandons it's own moral stance. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The Brexiters are having a nervous breakdown about the mere existence of a UK-EU summit. It’s like deep down they know Brexit has been a washout and any chance for that to be exposed, even a little, terrifies them.

Police are looking for somebody with taste and sensibility

Brexit did immense damage to European trust in the UK. The summit is a great opportunity to start rebuilding that. Shutting out most European media outlets is an own goal before the summit even starts.

Concern about the future of society is causing some young people to choose not to have children. Climate and environmental impacts definitely raise serious issues for the future of our children and grandchildren. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - ⁠WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank

LibDem MP Max Wilkinson makes an important Point of Order, "A Reform UK social media account digitally manipulated those comments to give the appearance that I had described Nigel Farage using a four letter expletive" "This is misinformation, it is fake news, this is Trumpian tactics"

@bylinesnetwork Can we watch Reform-controlled councils, month by month, for the rest of the country to evaluate?

It's interesting that Reform's councillor gains almost exactly equal Tory losses, and LibDem and Green gains almost exactly equal Labour losses.

Just incredible

This flyer has been going out in Kent, and Reform UK there are getting incredibly grumpy about it. They hate being called out with facts. Let’s share it.

This is kicking off at 5pm BST/12pm ET. There’s been so much about Trump’s first 100 days in politics, but this is specifically about Silicon Valley’s role in all this with some of leading tech experts in the US. Do join & bring your questions..

Reform UK candidate in Cornwall Ollie Williams was on Love Island, people called on him to be booted off the show when it emerged he is a fan of trophy hunting. Ollie is running for the ‘anti-establishment’ party, despite being set to inherit the 2,000-acre estate and become a Viscount.

It used to be a newspaper

Violette Simpson, Reform UK's candidate in #Calne Central, #Wiltshire. Her candidate statement doesn't include her love of this, unsuprisingly.

One of the world’s leading scholars on genocide, William Schabas, on Monday denounced Keir Starmer and David Lammy for refusing to label Israel's actions in Gaza as genocide. “These people are hypocrites… They do not interpret or apply the Genocide Convention in a consistent manner.”

“Far from simply being a beneficiary of short-term frustrations, Reform is capitalising on years of deep-rooted anger… about what millions of people see as the long slide of national decline” Decline that Farage helped cause. Anger that’s made him a fortune. liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/366...

Lib Dems continue to zero in on their anti-Trump message, reacting to Canadian election Ed Davey says:
