In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.

Sounds like Summer β˜€οΈ open.spotify.com/track/5rffvB...

The Price Cap to fall 7% on 1 July (though it's still a Pants Cap). What it means & the new rates. Today’s announcement that the Price Cap is to fall by 7%, is welcome, but nothing to shout home about. All this really does is reverse April's rise so it's back to roughly the cost at the start of…

Watching Mr Loverman after becoming aware of it at TV BAFTAs. Very good and definitely worth a watch #BBCiPlayer

"I want people to be safe and protected. I want to live on the right side of history. I am an immigrant. My parents are refugees from Chile. We fled a dictatorship and I was privileged enough to grow up in the United States after asylum in Denmark. I stand by those protections, always."

We have a chance to improve our relationship + trading terms with the EU, give musicians + young people more freedom and make travel easier… And Brexiters are howling about betrayal, fish, β€˜holding all the cards’ and immigration. Same lies. Same prejudice. And same failure if we don’t ignore them.

It’s so much easier to tear something down than to build something better. Farage will only ever destroy. Because his ideologies don’t work. They divide, they harm, they cost, they isolate. He doesn’t want a better EU deal. He *needs* the failure. His power relies on the anger that creates.

This is a very niche post but why don’t Birkenstock make 2 strap sandals in red? I NEED them.

Remember a Reform Councillor isn’t for life..πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ It’s just for a few weeks before they quit because being a Councillor needs commitment not just standing on the sidelines spouting populist, xenophobic BSβ—οΈπŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™‚οΈ 22 already have quit and more to follow…
