Five years ago, the Eye made the case for the government to take back control of British Steel, by renationalising it. Instead, ministers handed it over to Chinese ownership. Now, five years later, it's being taken back under emergency powers.

Murdoch's Fox News' response to the Signal text scandal is that of a news organisation serving an authoritarian regime. As we know in the UK Murdoch has devoted his career to abusing democracy's freedoms in order to weaken and destroy democracy. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Given today's events and investigations into causes of the sub-station fire: did we ever hear any-more on who or what group was behind the co-ordinated attacks that knocked-out TGV lines on the day the #Paris2024 #Olympics started last July? #HeathrowAirport #HeathrowShutdown

Boris Johnson’s million-pound Daily Mail gig continues to be farcical. A recent column, confidently praising Trump’s Ukraine stance, was swiftly pulled after Trump and JD Vance launched a scathing attack on Zelensky. Full story online and in the latest issue: www.private-eye.co.uk/news

The Trump-Putin Pact already exists, and we should act accordingly. There are some things we will never change with nice words or smart clothing. If you are worried about those things, you should understand where Trump's tactics come from. From Russia. A thread. 🧵1/14

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I'm sure I've posted this before - including quite possibly on a 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #StDavidsDay! - but I never tire of watching the great Michael Parkinson's 1974 BBC interview with the peerless Richard Burton. It's on BBC Four now: well-worth catching on i-Player or wherever else you can find it.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Flicking-through TV earlier, I just happened to see an episode (7) of the unsurpassed #TheWorldAtWar starting, and such coincidence after yesterday's #TrunpVanceAmbush that it was about USA 1939-1942. America First was a 1930s thing, too. Watch and see. www.dailymotion.com/video/x3p7amf

Hi @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk I've just listened to Jackie/Jacqui, and get so much of what she says: trying to engage with NHS/social care, beyond GP phone-calls, is banging head against a brick-wall, and, as you inferred from her desperation, beyond exhausting. Utterly disenchanting.
