Reform UK’s “DOLGE” wants to “cut waste” in councils – starting with a misunderstanding of a scheme to provide services across England. Their lead efficiency expert? A 29-year-old with a failed company and £834 in assets. Here’s what you need to know ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk

The top aide to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Ali Asghar Hejazi, is negotiating with Russia for a possible escape route for regime leaders if Iran’s situation worsens, Iran International reports. Moscow has promised a secure evacuation.

Danger from older drivers is a massive problem. Driving is not a human right. There should be basic mandatory re-tests at age 76 & every year from age 80.

Just waiting for Trump to announce he's going to deport Musk

Who is this US fool being interviewed on the World at One on Radio 4?

This is real

Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Tuesday renaming the airport in Volgograd as Stalingrad. How soon before St Petersburg becomes Leningrad again? Will Moscow be renamed Putingrad?

The USA is running out of patience with Ukraine for being bombed by Russia.

What a state we’re in when most of the world is rooting for China over the U.S. in the trade war.

If the first Trump term was Boris Johnson, his second term is pure Liz Truss

It looks as though Trump saw us shoot ourselves in the foot with Brexit and thought "We should do that, but with a much bigger gun and in both feet"
