An ad put up at a bus stop in London today.

93 countries supported the eEU-Ukrainian resolution that named Russia an aggressor state and called on it to remove its troops from Ukraine The US, Russia, Belarus and North Korea voted against Read that again, the US sided with Russia and North Korea 👀

The US just voted alongside Russia, Belarus and North Korea against a UN resolution to support Ukraine. This is a wake-up call for all those cheerleading Trump in our country.

🧵 This UN resolution vote on Ukraine is worth paying attention to. A brief thread on the Trump administration's bullying under way in the background. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Elon Musk's pinned tweet right now.

Byline Times is facing major DDOS (malicious traffic-flooding) issues on our site apparently after this article went live... bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Please don't let the reporting about the Pentagon purge focus solely on DEI/Joint Chiefs. Firing the service TJAGs - the top lawyers for Army, Navy, USAF/Space Force - is incredibly consequential. A little context🧵on why.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

If you’d asked AI to write a piece of Russian propaganda in the style of Donald Trump, this is what you’d get. Well done America, you’ve elected a Russian asset as your President.

Unless you look at Trump squarely through his aberrant pathology, and see how his sociopathy, paranoia, sadism, and especially his lifelong narcissism color all he says and does, you can't address his actions with any real meaning.

If that doesn’t say everything anyone would ever need to know what does? Along with the myriad other things every single day. Yet his worshippers will howl approval without question.

This by Michael Rosen is terrifying and apt for the times we live in now.

I think we've reached the point where it's reasonable to call anyone supporting the Trump administration a quisling and an appeaser and we should reserve nothing but contempt and disdain for them.

Giving infectious disease research a break, as promised by the MAHA agenda. Let's break down what exactly this Executive Order is *really* saying. Fortunately, I speak fluent anti-vax grifterese & can translate. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Musk, Vance & Trump all misrepresent democracy. When they say “democracy”, they mean a free-for-all with no rule of law, where the winner takes all. When Europe says “democracy”, we mean proportional representation, collaborative politics, citizen rights, and agreed guide rails guaranteed by law.

Word of the Day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet individual whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

Vance is a hypocritical moron! That is all.

How liberty dies. An incredibly powerful analysis of what’s happening in 🇺🇸 by @chrischirp.bsky.social Truly terrifying but where is the opposition? substack.com/@chrischirp/...

I expected this kind of performative stupidity from #Tories but not from #Labour Sorry but you will not be winning the next election if you keep up these moronic decisions.

Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.

It’s impossible to convey how bad it is in US. No agency, or programme spared. Administration bulldozing the constitution. Congress supine. Courts too slow. Officials terrified, their life’s work trashed, careers ended, expertise gone. Damage around world. US reputation and partnerships destroyed.

Just a little poll in The Express. You know what to do —> xd.wayin.com/display/cont...

🇺🇸 BREAKING: Goodbye, USA. 👇🏻 Watch the latest report from #BrokenNews, then please share. youtu.be/CrGpAIBc754?...

Nailed it 💥🔥🔥

Leaving the ECHR won’t do anything to stop small boats. But it *will* compromise the Good Friday Agreement, lead to the suspension of essential parts of the Brexit Deal and put us alongside Belarus & Russia as the only European nations outside the treaty. www.bestforbritain.org/badenoch_mus...

If social media firms wanted “free speech” they wouldn’t have algorithms at all (or they’d let users customise their algorithms). I want to follow the people I know and like - I don’t want to see tweets from deranged billionaires and neo-Nazi bots that are artificially planted on my feed

If Brexit was in any way good or had worked, no one, not even the most ardent and paranoid Brexiter, would be worried about its future because it would already be assured. They are only panicking now because it has so evidently failed.

Am I the only one to see a contradiction between a NHS overwhelmed with respiratory infections and JCVI’s decision (based on their “bespoke” economic evaluation) to recommend very limited eligibility for COVID vaccines? #FalseEconomy

It's striking how much Tory members differ from the public on these qs: "It's important for leaders to be able to manipulate...to get their way"(+15/-21) "I like self-confident leaders who regard themselves as exceptional"(+32/-32) "Britain needs strong leaders...prepared to break rules" (+1/-65)

Private healthcare is lobbying Wes Streeting to sign a new PFI deal with them. Time is running out to ask Wes Streeting to say NO. Please add your name to this petition now. #NoNewPFI weownit.org.uk/act-now/tell...

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says “We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants” Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR youtu.be/iSTN-h8NoyY

Where's our Referendum?

My direct appeal to @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social & Keir_Starmer in the light of yesterday's vote on AD. If they sincerely care about dying people, surely now they will publicly & urgently commit to properly funding our threadbare, neglected palliative care? www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

Nigel Farage loves open borders - for the super rich youtu.be/SA8T29zWNCw?...

🚨 HUGE NEWS: Campaigners in the UK are to finally "get their country back” after months of protests. 👇🏻 Join #BrokenNews for all the details! youtu.be/5T07_ZvxrYc?...

I remember during the Brexit referendum that leading Brexiteers *insisted* that they were not isolationists and little Englanders. They *were* team players, but it was just the EU was wrong. But then they wanted out of Single Market… then ECHR… …and now UN and ICC too. They are not team players.

Lots of over-the-top coverage right now about the £1m cap on inheritance tax agricultural property relief (APR). Quick thread:

Do you remember these same people’s reaction any time a Labour shadow minister supported a junior doctors’ picket? “When WE do it, it’s patriotic…”

A few facts about Labour's Budget and farmers.
