Just posted by President Zelenskyy

It's been obvious since January 6 that he was an enemy of the USA, the UK & the whole of the free world. Everybody still in his camp understands this as completely as everybody against it. They just prioritise personal interest over the national & international. And they know it. They all know it.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

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

RIP Roberta Flack

🔥 Diego Gómez makes his first start for Albion 🔙 Pervis Estupiñán returns to the starting XI Albion set to take on Bournemouth at the Amex – thoughts on the lineup? 👀🔵⚪ #BHAFC

TEAM NEWS! 🚨 Tonight’s starting XI… 👀

#bhafc We are on a roll... Beating a team in the bottom half, is a great measure of form. Another clean sheet. It's all coming together.

#bhafc Confidence in abundance today... Nothing can go wrong, can it?

On this day 1979, it's 2nd v 3rd in Division Two at The Goldstone, as #BHAFC welcome #CPFC. Separated by goal difference only, it finished goalless, in front of 23,795. The game was all-ticket, re-arranged at the last minute and it was freezing. seagullsprogrammes.co.uk/197879

On this day 2014, Leonardo Ulloa scores his 3rd goal in as many games, as #BHAFC draw 1-1 with #hcafc in the #FACup 5th round at The Amex, watched by 21,352. seagullsprogrammes.co.uk/201314

Two fantastic performances, 7 days apart. Two equally brilliant programmes, rising to the challenge of providing unique content for 2 games against the same opposition. Superb effort from the @officialbha.bsky.social team and, of course, @spencervignes.bsky.social. #BHAFC

I've heard this season's #BHAFC programme covers described as 'an abomination'. I've also heard them described as 'superb'. For me, its the latter and if we are to persuade a new generation of Albion fans to buy the printed programme, then these Jamie Eke designs are a great start

Watching Brighton thrash Chelsea 3-0 was great. But the best bit? Seeing Marc Cucurella completely destroyed by Yankubu Minteh. It genuinely looked like Cucurella might cry at one point, which would have been the cherry on top of the Valentine's Day cake for #BHAFC fans 👇🏼

Can we just appreciate the staff at Drusillas for what they chose to name their penguins. #BHAFC

Love this #bhafc

Brighton 3-0 Chelsea. £250 million. A place in the FA Cup fifth round. And now three Premier League points. Pleasure doing business with you as always, Todd Boehly. Happy Valentine's Day #BHAFC

Victory in the FA Cup last week, a win in the Premier League tonight... Brighton are wishing they could play Chelsea every week. A 3-0 victory over Enzo Maresca's side, thanks to goals from Kaoru Mitoma & Yankuba Minteh, moves #BHAFC up to eighth. #BHACHE

Yankuba Minteh was in flying form against Chelsea tonight. #BHACHE | #BHAFC

Kaoru Mitoma ballon d'or #bhafc

#bhafc Last week I said we had the swagger back. Tonight, a double swagger. A clean sheet & three great goals. Going to bed happy.

One brilliant headed goal. One assist which ended up leaving Marc Cucurella, Moises Caicedo AND Robert Sanchez all sitting on their arses when Kaoru Mitoma scored the winner Georginio Rutter was King of the FA Cup again as Brighton eased past Chelsea 👑 #BHAFC

As if Joel Veltman was not enough of a popular figure with Brighton fans... he then goes and clatters Marc Cucucrella in a pretty unnecessary foul to pick up a totally unnecessary booking 😂 Relive it in all its glory with the best fan photos from #BHAFC 2-1 Chelsea 👇

MITOMAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! It's 2-1 Brighton!!!!!! #BHAFC

#bhafc Happy with that. Played well. A bit of a swagger back...

#bhafc fans please note an update for tonight

There are no basic standards in the modern Tory party. Not of respectability, or intellectual consistency, or mortality. So it will now say anything - anything at all - if it echoes what that madman in the White House is doing.

On this day 1977, #BHAFC consolidate their position at the top of Division Three, with a 2-0 win over #pnefc at The Goldstone. The crowd of 21,338 see Albion goals from Peter Ward (his 22nd of the season) and Tony Towner. seagullsprogrammes.co.uk/197677

Badenoch attacking Starmer about things she should have asked to be briefed on but never did even though the offer was there from Starmer. Then has the nerve to bring up government borrowing when the Tories borrowed £2.8 Trillion! #PMQs

Nazi salutes in week one. State-sanctioned ethnic cleansing in week four. But all the scumbag apologists who dared to talk about ‘over-reaction’ are still too bent and/or invested to row back.

*week three

At a moment when we desperately need a fragile truce to hold, Trump’s ramblings on Gaza risk having the effect of a bull in a china shop. The UK needs to make clear that these proposals must be rejected, and that we support international law and a two state solution based on 1967 borders.

Senator Chuck Schumer sums it up

So naturally, you know what to do…👇 Enjoy. 😎✨

Canada have cancelled their contracts with Elon Musk's Starlink. Well done Canada.

The richest man in the world shutting down aid to the poorest and most in need is just everything you need to know about these appalling examples of garbage apnews.com/article/doge...

Scintillating response to Donald Trump’s latest drivel

#bhafc Had to go to the doctor this morning I've got a memory issue. I've forgotten anything from Saturday between 12:30 & 14:20. The doctor has said I've got classic football amnesia.....
