The EU Council will discuss suspending Hungary’s voting rights under Article 7. The charge is serious breaches of European values including judicial independence and minority rights. The date has been set for May 27. If it passes it’ll stop Hungary blocking Russian sanctions and Ukraine aid.

Little known fact that Grover Cleveland used to ride around the world in the Statue of Liberty and have sensitive national security discussions inside it, before taking possession of it himself after he left office.

Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around. They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway. It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

Despite the fact I have immediate family in 🇺🇸 and I really want to continue visiting them I’m not prepared to put my freedom & safety at risk so I won’t be setting foot on US soil until the current criminal administration is gone, preferably behind bars.

I’ve been racking my brains trying to think of a fascist dictatorship that ever ended well for the perpetrators. Can’t think of a single one.

Perhaps someone should inform the ignorant peasant that Pakistan didn’t even exist until 1947 so this little cerebral jewel belongs with the “USA and Italy have been allies since time of the Roman Empire”. If he gets any denser he’ll form his own black hole.

After the disappointment of Middlesbrough’s performance today I needed comfort food. A Vineleaf Taverna (my local) mixed meze fits the bill perfectly.

That’s a bit rich. No European country should be taking lessons in political morality from a country that just voted to DEPORT IT’S OWN CITIZENS. www.bbc.com/news/article...

In light of Trump’s latest attack on US citizens who have the temerity to actually voice disagreement with him maybe it’s time to place sanctions on 🇺🇸? Does 🇬🇧 or 🇪🇺 really want to do business with a dictator? What’s good for Putin should be equally good for Trump.

As I understand it, the desire of the “tech bros” is to kill democracy & replace it with an “Executive board” to run 🇺🇸 like a corporation. But corporate boards are answerable to their shareholders & I guess the shareholders here are the taxpayers. Sounds like a failure to think this through to me.

@torstenbell.bsky.social @darrenpjones.bsky.social @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social Trump's and Bukele's WH presser promoting gulags in El Salvador for US citizens whom the régime does not like has shown us the true face of repressive US fascism in the making. Starmer must NOW ACT to speak out.

Hmmmmmm…. Yesterday, Marjorie Taylor Greene said that people panicking over tariffs are "losers and failures." Today, she disclosed over a dozen stock purchases, purchasing hundred of thousands of numerous stocks. She bought when the market was deeply red. Hmmmmmmmm…..

In a "Fact Sheet" published alongside his tariffs, Donald Trump made clear that Britain would have to accept hormone-raddled beef and chlorine-washed chicken as part of a deal to remove his punitive tariffs. Starmer better not roll over and surrender! www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

Here’s a totally off the wall thought. What if Trump’s insistence on annexing Canada to remove it as a possible destination for refugees escaping his new fascist regime. Planning ahead?

Surely if Drumph imposes punitive tariffs of UK exports to the unUSA then the first action MUST be to withdraw the invitation for a 2nd state visit. He’d absolutely hate that. So damaging to his ego.

IMHO Alaska constitutes a threat to Canada’s national security so perhaps they should consider annexing it? 🍁🇨🇦

My energy bill was £127 in 2019, it's now £221/month My mortgage in 2019 was £589, it's now £1,100/month Train fares got hiked, taxes went up 12 times. All that happened under the TORIES. Labour fucking walk in the door, suddenly the Mail give a shit. Piss off.

We have family in the USA & we’d hoped to visit soon but we’ve informed them that we won’t be setting foot there until sanity is restored & a proper government is in place. 😡
