It’s broke.

Can’t believe I’m only seeing this now. RIP to one of the best there ever was. tripwiremagazine.co.uk/headlines/ri... #RobMcGinnis

They say established media is in decline, but ITN (which makes ITV, C4 and C5 news) had 7.2 billion views of its content online last year. That equates to pretty much everyone in the world seeing at least one story from ITN. People still want trusted, properly researched news.

Incredibly moving. 1000s of Lithuanians lined the streets of the capital Vilnius yesterday to honor the four US soldiers killed on their soil. As their bodies are repatriated to the US, their President will be nowhere to be seen, except on a Florida golf course. (📸 Gedinimas Varvuolis)

James Shepard, aviator: #Boeing 787 pricing is going to be interesting going forwards under #Trump’s new #tariff regime..

Matt Cartoons: 'If US stock markets keep falling we might be able to buy America soon'

That looks a lot like English but, I’ve no idea what it means.

“Not fulfilled his obligations!” Interesting choice of words.

www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... This is an amazing listen.

They have so much in common, after all.

So I signed up for an online course, it was $65, just over £50 left my account in the UK. So how come my Apple Mac cost exactly the same in pounds as dollars?

Spidermans.😉

"The activation of victimhood is what Donald Trump's entire politics is based on..." @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social @peterjukes.bsky.social discuss #Trump and his Theatre of Cruelty. Intro: @goldbergradio.bsky.social - from @bylinetimes.bsky.social pod.fo/e/2b5c5e

Donald Trump, "We have a situation with Iran that something is going to happen soon, very very soon" "I'd rather see a peace deal than the other, but the other will solve the problem" Did Trump just suggest that Iran is going to be attacked?

I hope there’s a Hell, because…

DO NOT ATTEND MEASLES PARTIES—Marjorie Taylor Greene is now promoting the idea of “measles parties”. Meanwhile, 2 unvaccinated people died recently—including a 6 year old who just died last week.

I bet Amy Gleason turns out to be 150 years old and still pulling a government wage.🤣

Me, “Hey Siri, show me a quisling” Siri, “Here’s what I found on the web, my ‘quisling’ search always takes me to the Mail or the Telegraph, how odd!”

Ukraine has firepower to fight on without US support – for now

The next UK partial solar eclipse takes place on Saturday 29 March 2025 in the UK, beginning at 10.07am GMT and ending at 12pm.  The eclipse will reach its 'maximum' - the moment when the greatest portion of the Sun is hidden - at 11.03am. buff.ly/cVkMtBj.

“NEW: A former spy and close friend of #VladimirPutin has been engineering a restart of #Russia’s #NordStream 2 gas pipeline to #Europe with the backing of #US #investors, a once unthinkable move that shows the depth of #Trump’s rapprochement with #Moscow.”

Seeing Kemi Badenoch respond to matters of unprecedented geopolitical importance reminds me of an anxiety dream I used to have about agreeing to play drums at a charity concert with the Rolling Stones & remembering on the night that I can’t play the drums.

A suit doesn’t mean you’re respectful.

David Frum is the former speech writer for President George W. Bush:

This does sound amazing. Anyone on #MedSky know how close we are to this being a routine treatment? #OncoSky

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

A state visit doesn't just mean that Trump comes to the UK for talks or whatever. It means a literal parade in his honour. It means a banquet with the royals. It is one of the highest honours we have to give. After what we saw yesterday, it must not be allowed to happen.

"When billionaires take control of our communication channels, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for their billionaire babble…When they speak of 'freedom', what they actually seek is freedom from accountability” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

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

Exactly

Merz's clear and unambiguous in his support for Zelensky

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

This has to be right. Starmer's summit on Sunday has become a potentially decisive moment. If Europeans don't throw their weight behind Ukraine and behind a massive and immediate increase in their defence efforts (& damn the deficits), Europe will find itself at the mercy of Putin & Trump.

“Dear God, please take food and healthcare away from hardworking, poor families and give it to the rich. They don’t need it, but the poor don’t deserve it, thank you God.” Fuck fake Christians…

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

Here’s the full Trump-Zelensky presser. Trump, unable to find most countries on a map, is so wildly out of his depth here - and he’s sabotaging US interests amid his and Vance’s tag-team bullying of Zelensky. Utterly reckless and shameful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvwr...

🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 I’d like to see Trump last one week of what Zelensky has endured for three long years. Despicable bullying of a man who deserves nothing but respect. Shameful thuggery. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
