@mrjamesob.bsky.social just asking - can't you have a say in selecting our sit-in presenters on @lbc.co.uk ? So far today, 2 straight hours of UK Government bashing. Now giving Lord Toby Young a platform to bash them on freedom of speech (irony, much?).

The televised Oval Office meeting with Bukele is mockery. They’re mocking the press, their opposition, the courts, and the entire concept of justice. They’re mocking everyone who isn’t them. The abuser’s playbook yet again.

Latest from @thetimes.com campaign in favour of keeping Britain as a tax haven for foreigners, regardless of how long they have lived here. What a pity it won’t tell us how Henley Partners, which has skin in the game, came up with its data. Its last “survey” was “modelled” on 250 LinkedIn profiles!

The fact that a reporter was inadvertently given access to this in real time shows that Pete Hegseth & the rest of this crew are bumbling incompetents who are going to get a lot of intelligence officials and others killed at some point. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

For those who say that the results of the Trump-Putin call were good for Ukraine--the following needs to be understood. 1) The US has no new approved aid for Ukraine--all that is left is the remaining Biden aid (which is running out) 2) Trump has not actually put any new sanctions on Russia

This is hideous. And close to inexplicable unless Trump is doing what Putin tells him to.

The last seven days? What we have always feared? What an irredeemable fraud he is. Gets a whole chapter in ‘How They Broke Britain’. And here he is now, ‘seeing the light’. Danny Dyer voiceover: “Twat.”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social James. I'd suggest PM Starmer and the UK not being at the Brussels EU summit today is akin to a poor child looking through the toy shop window at Christmas while the better of kids ard inside. Literally window shopping.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

“Just three companies, News Corp (Murdoch family), Daily Mail & General Trust (DMGT, Viscount Rothermere) and Reach plc, control over 80% of daily newspaper circulation… The hyper-rich continue to invest huge sums in acquiring control of media” We need a free press - ie free from the billionaires.
