✍️ Global allegiances have shifted and the UK must change too History warns us of the pitfalls when political alliances change suddenly: the UK must consider its options in the new security landscape By Natalie Bennett @nataliegreenpeer.bsky.social

There have been so many grim moments in recent years, but Trump's (predictable) comments on Zelensky feels like a real low in terms of what's coming next. Please can we never hear about that 'special relationship' again. It's dead.

Nigel Farage says he will always put "country" first. Here's a reminder of which country he's talking about.

Saw this in Rochester Cathedral tonight. Staggering to see it is so vivid considering its age.

My aunty and her husband were going about their business last Thursday in East Yorkshire and some idiot who we were told was drunk, lost control of their car and smashed head on into theirs. This is the remains of my Aunty's car after the fire service got them out and transported them to HRI.

So, Farage is turning down interview requests; I can't imagine why.

Never forget what this Putinett said

Today is going to be grim. In memory of Oded and the Bibas family.

Old twitter followers may remember that some months ago, in the heady days of the UK summer, a fox entered our porch and stole a brand new shoe of mine. He’s a man of his word and he returned it last night. 🦊

Canada... You, Mexico and Europe could make a pretty spiffy trading block. (UK, you might want to get in on this.)

Nigel Farage supported Brexit Nigel Farage supported Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal. Nigel Farage called Liz Truss’s budget the best budget for 40 years. Nigel Farage says the NHS should be privatised. Farage has been wrong about, everything. Don’t let Farage ruin our country any longer.

Waiting for this to be all over the BBC, Sky News, Mail, Times, Telegraph. They like reporting borrowing costs under a Labour government, don’t they? Front page splash?

And people wonder why women want to set their own boundaries and protect themselves from men.

The cheeky #sophiefromromania being told she’s not getting any of the prof’s dinner

Ain’t that the truth?

As if further proof was needed..

Dogs never cease to amaze me. Just 72 hours since her operation Pepper is out and about looking absolutely stunning. Even I am blown away by her turnaround (1/5) 🧵

Reform MP Richard Tice is against ‘work from home’, so his party’s wfh job vacancies are raising eyebrows www.thepoke.com/2025/02/02/r...

When something is a success, people like to associate themselves with it. So it's noticeable how quiet the Brexiters are. inews.co.uk/opinion/brex...
