💥 Russia: Ukraine struck another Swiss-owned EuroChem factory that produces chemicals for munitions explosives for the Russian war machine. This time in Nevinnomyssk, Stavropol region.

I went to enter a competition this morning and then realised that if I actually won then the prize involved a trip to the US, didn’t fancy getting detained at customs and separated from my daughter, so naturally chucked the competition in the bin. It’s not worth the risk.

🔴 Russian airstrikes hit Chernihiv and Kharkiv regions, killing one and injuring seven.

Labour's Sarah Jones is unable to say whether Israel was wrong to attack Iran Really quite sad and disgusting

“Could seriously harm or kill patients”... not quite what you want from £122m of PPE. Medpro says all was above board; the Dept of Health wants a refund. Buckle in. The court case runs for five weeks. 👀 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

⚡️ Ukraine urges that frozen Russian assets be used now to rebuild roads, bridges, and homes—even as the war continues.

So far the government's 'olive branch' to Labour MPs planning to rebel isn't going down very well. "I can't believe that's it," one MP says www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

After surviving the siege of Mariupol, Mykhailo Dianov then faced torture and neglect in Russian captivity. This is him today. Talk about inspiration. This man is absolutely incredible.

In this regime, your name determines your fate. Donald Trump becomes president, while his distant cousin Donaldo Trumpo finds himself deported to El Salvador. #FuckTrump

🚨 Iran pulls out of nuclear talks with the U.S.

Sen. Padilla: I'm Senator Alex Padilla. (Agents talk to themselves: Padilla? Sounds Spanish. That’s reason enough! You're under arrest!) #FuckTrump

You saw his photos after Russian captivity, now he shares a new one.

Russia has lost 1 million soldiers in the war. How many more will it throw into the meat grinder? united24media.com/war-in-ukrai...

Whenever you guys have a moment on Saturday, why not share some appreciation for a real father, a real leader, a real president?

This is what it’s come to. A US Senator is being forcefully removed from a press conference , forced on the floor and handcuffed, simply for wanting to ask a question to one of the most useless Secs of State🤬 What TF have you done to yourself, US of Absolute Arseholes? youtube.com/shorts/bEF-0...

This clip, showing the Senator being arrested, is significantly more shocking than the original ones circulating.

Russian captivity kills. Even after release, many POWs suffer long-term health damage from the inhuman conditions they endured.

British people tell their MPs why they've joined the Global Match to Gaza As the Global March to Gaza begins, British people taking part have condemned their MPs and government inaction over Israel www.thecanary.co/global/world...

Under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, America's poorest families lose about $1600 per year. The richest households gain about $12,000 per year. It's Reverse Robin Hood. (Via CBO)

Why, America, WHY????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭 An orange narcissist instead of them, c’mon...

❗️Over 1,000 “No Kings” demonstrations are planned across the country this coming Saturday.

Democratic Senator Alex Padilla was just detained by Trump's agents for attending Kristi Noem's press conference. This is what dictatorship looks like.

The flags at our EU office in New Delhi fly at half-mast today in memory of the victims of this morning’s plane crash in Ahmedabad. Europe mourns with India, the UK, Canada and Portugal. This tragedy affects us all.

Europe must take greater responsibility for its own security – and within NATO. We support stronger defence capabilities and stepping up expenditures to contribute more effectively to our Atlantic Alliance. Our unity and transatlantic bond are enduring. Weimar+ statement → europa.eu/!KwnF4D

A symbolic image. President Zelenskyy met with President Sandu and President Dan. Security in the region, solidarity, mutual help, path towards peace were the main discussion points and intentions. Thankful to Moldova and Romania for standing with Ukraine! 🇲🇩🇷🇴🇺🇦

Bill Clinton is a brave guy in America right now. At a naturalisation ceremony for 38 new citizens he defended immigration as America’s greatest strength. “I don't think we need fewer immigrants. I think we need more." How many would say that?

Russia has surpassed 1,000,000 casualties in its genocidal invasion of Ukraine since February 24th, 2022. An average of 830 dead and wounded Russian soldiers per day over 1,204 days of war. Russia has lost one soldier for every 104 seconds over 40 months of war.

Every Ukrainian knows the rule: two walls can save you during a Russian strike.

I joined the emergency protest outside Downing Street tonight demanding the UK government acts urgently to free the detained Madleen crew, condemn Israel’s illegal attack on a UK-flagged aid ship, end the blockade, stop all arms sales to Israel, & end its complicity in genocide.
