I’m old fashioned enough to think the BBC should be leading on what the deal is and what it means. Rather than the political claims from both sides.

I think the language was badly chosen & have written a piece (forthcoming) on why. Starmer did not quote Enoch Powell. He did use the word 'strangers'. Powell used this word too. They made different arguments using the word. The idea it was an intentional echo is highly implausible & 99.99999% not

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

A very strange UK politics where it seems the two traditional parties are targeting the same ~20% of the population and nobody very much cares about the remaining 80%.

The only thing Trump has liberated today is any last vestige of respect for America. The USA is now the geo political equivalent of an angry man in an ill-fitting gimp suit, riding a mechanical donkey through the centre of town whistling the Benny Hill theme tune through his buttocks.

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.”

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

Vance claims he wasn't referring to the UK & France. So which country was he referring to? Germany, Italy, Poland, Denmark, Spain, Romania, Netherlands, Czechia, Norway, Estonia, Sweden, Latvia, Finland, Portugal, Albania, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovakia, Lithuania all fought in Afghanistan.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country. They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.

A side note to the chaos, but one of the American ‘journalists’ used his question to ask a war time leader about his outfit. I hope he goes home tonight and reflects on whether this is the profession for him.

The idiocy of this sort of coverage should now be apparent to all. It wasn’t just the Express, a lot of normally sane journalists have attacked the PM for spending too much time building alliances with other countries.

Even by his god-awful standards, this is one of Trump’s most disgusting press conferences. He’s attacked Zelenskyy, using Kremlin talking points that he only has a 4% approval (LIE). Then, again, Trump blames him & Ukraine for starting the war. THEY. WERE. FUCKING. INVADED.

Keir Starmer and Ed Davey are more highly rated than Farage and Badernoch. The Great British Public hasn't the same view as right wing hacks and media chatterers.
