All the signals here - EU unity, solidarity with Ukraine, £ for re-armament & boost for UK defence sector in doing so - are bang on. Starmer’s played this well so far & worth thinking about why No 10 isn’t always this sure-footed on domestic policy www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn...

This will be my go-to response from now on.👏 “You’re raising the volume of your voice, but not the logic of your argument.” -President Zelenskyy

“If Roosevelt had told Churchill to sue for peace on any terms with Adolf Hitler and to fork over Britain’s coal reserves to the United States in exchange for no American security guarantees, it might have approximated what Trump did to Zelensky.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/o...

Zelenskyy is my hero. A true anti-fascist. A man with more bravery and dignity in his other finger then most of his detractors will encounter in their lifetime

The team and I have been out again this morning and afternoon, knocking doors in the Cinderford East. Lots of issues we're raised including poor local offers for transport and SEND. We don't just campaign and door knock at election time we are out all year around. #labourdoorstep #forestofdean

What's happening in Ukraine is both tragedy and travesty. If the U.S. withdraws from NATO and it can't step up without our support, it will also be disaster and atrocity. And all of it can be laid at the feet of the traitor, Donald Trump. More in my latest: www.marytrump.org/p/at-the-ful...

Trump doesn’t give a shit about peace just plundering the natural resources of bombed, raped and pillaged lands. He’s a common thief stealing from corpses in the wreckage whilst siding with the perpetrator and there’s not enough words in the English language to describe how much I hate the bastard.

Trump fired 400 FAA senior officials, the TSA head & 3k air traffic controllers. Now there’s been a fatal accident. He was supposed to be updating the public but instead gave an incoherent, shameless rambling speech blaming DEI hires and politicised a tragedy. He truly is a despicable waste of piss

@mindcharity.bsky.social who have 508k followers on X have just announced that they will no longer be posting there. This is one of the first loud quits from a really big charity I have seen. They hadn't posted on X since November. They are here instead and building up from their 2k followers.
