Jon Stewart is a legend & the way this show is trying to explain to a mainstream audience the gravity what is happening in the US is amazing. It was both thrilling & terrifying to be part of it. Thank you @TheDailyShow 👏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG7C...

Pushback to the policy shift announced earlier. “Google DeepMind staff in the UK are seeking to unionise in an effort to challenge the company’s decision to sell its artificial intelligence technologies to defence groups and ties to the Israeli government”

Europe was presented with the US peace deal proposal for Ukraine in Paris, Bloomberg reports. The details: * Russia retains the parts of Ukraine it has invaded * Ukraine’s NATO aspirations off the table * sanctions against Russia cancelled in the event of a lasting peace 100% Russia.

Many old Irish sayings contain wisdom that’s applicable today. But my favourite is a proverb warning against launching into something that’s impractical, poorly planned, or just plain unhinged. It goes ná bolt do dhoras riamh le cairéad bruite and it means “never bolt your door with a boiled carrot”

Public ownership of water is the most popular of all potential re-nationalisations. That only the Green Party plus a friend stood up for this in the House of Lords demonstrates the distance between our major political parties and public opinion. See WE OWN IT website for polls.

Culture, history and heritage on the US naughty-banned list. Oh and sense of community too.

Son: Are we better off now? Dad: Well son, mom & dad have both lost their jobs. Our savings are gone, gas & grocery prices are up. We did, however, save you from drag queen story time. Son: What's that? Dad: A mythical thing they said was happening in your school, which we can't afford anymore.

So while Trump banned the Associated Press from the Oval Office, a reporter from Russia's state-owned news agency TASS was allowed in to cover his attack on Zelensky

How would a random Russian news agency reporter sneak into the White House?

An extraordinary moment. America has publicly resigned its leadership of the free world

Just trying to think of a country with massive bot farms that is desperately trying to suppress this story. Please read and repost 👇🏼

Calling Zelensky a “Dictator” must be where the line is drawn. It is my sincere hope that the whole political spectrum in the United Kingdom will speak with one voice in opposition to Trump’s lies.

Labour actually delivering. Good news we dont hear on msm who are too busy promoting US / Russian interests.

The government is busy - but the work is not being reported. From banning toxic pesticides to funding green jobs, here are 20 things that happened last week. @eastangliabylines.co.uk @stephenmcnair.bsky.social

Ultimately it matters not if your constitution is written or unwritten or codified or uncodified… …once those in power do not recognise political or legal rules higher than their own personal or partisan advantage it is constitutional ‘game over’. Constitutions need constitutionalism, most of all.

Yaasss!!

Its defo time to demand protections are put in place now to protect UK gov, public finances and workers for the coming right wing assault on our democracy. Or by next election we'll be annexed into same US fascistic regime under the reform/kemi banner.

NEW CBS reports that Trump almost FLOODED the Central Valley of California by instructing the Army Corps of Engineers to release billions of gallons of water from two reservoirs in California's Central Valley. 1/
