Yesterday Mark Carney was told, “Mr Carney, there’s a genocide in Palestine”. “I’m aware,” Carney told the protester, “That’s why we have an arms embargo.” This has really, really upset Benjamin Netanyahu, so don't RT unless you hate him.

The French would like to thank the UK for funding to them. 2020 - 2024: EDF owned by the French state made £91bn operating profit in the UK, subsidises French households/industry. UK govts oppose public ownership but happy to let foreign govts own UK infrastructure, export billions of profits.

Reform: for the rich, by the rich.

Daisy Cooper, "This is Donald Trump saying to the UK that he will only lower tariffs if we lower standards" "If the government gives in to Trump's threats it will only encourage him to use the same bullying tactics again and again"

The UK exports £360bn of goods to the EU, on which we now struggle with big non tariff barriers, compared to £60bn to the US. Imagine looking at this sh1tshow and thinking it vindicates Brexit in any way.

Man in glasses, "Who is Rachel Reeves trying to convince that we'll be £500 better off under Labour, when energy, water and council tax prices are going up" "I don't think anybody I know or speak to thinks they are better off at the moment" #BBCQT

UK govt is committed to handing £2.5bn to steel companies rather than nationalising. Companies will own the resulting assets, income streams. Govt will not take an equity stake, make the amount a repayable loan. It is free money. Why no questions about corporate welfare.

Farage happy to sell out farmers and food standards to placate big American poultry... and Trump Note: The USA has almost non existent welfare standards in that sector and that's why they chlorinate the meat.

A contender for your opener at 10am @mrjamesob.bsky.social? And you can guarantee he hasn't a clue where any of the places he has heard of are! 🤪

People in Britain working with Russian authorities in any way will have to go on the UK’s foreign influence register by 1 July or face five years in jail. So I expect to see Boris and Frog face the first 2

Prosecution of people who help clients evade tax in UK falls by 75% in five years. Less than 5 criminal cases in 2023-24, down from 16 in 2018-19 Data provided by Treasury to Parliament, in reply to my question, was inflated and incorrect. Govts soft on tax dodge industry.

Excellent work by Everyone Hates Elon 👏🏻

I've spoken to so many people who voted Labour last time who now say 'I'm not even going to bother voting in the next election'. Labour is haemorrhaging voters while Reform is racking up huge numbers of support. I can't believe Starmer is intent on losing the next election.

The man now banned from the City handed Nigel Farage's party £10,000 last year

EXC. Reform UK candidate who said Hitler was ‘brilliant’, Assad was ‘gentle by nature’ & Putin’s force in Ukraine was legitimate .. is now overseeing Reform vetting www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Sky interview with Russian ambassador - why wasn’t he asked about their act of war on British soil when he claimed Russia isn’t a threat to anyone

It will come as no surprise to anyone to hear Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok has declared that there is at least a 75 percent chance that President Donald Trump is a "Russian asset" who has been "compromised" by Russian President Vladimir Putin www.newsweek.com/elon-musks-c...

Senator Claude Malhuret in a speech to the French Senate is brutally scathing: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine. (...) We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Cracking down on Student Protests by making them illegal - what type of country does this?

Remember when Liz Truss said the jury was out on whether France was a 'friend or foe' and all the Conservative Party members clapped. What a time to be alive.

Good morning all! 🇺🇦 Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

People forget Trump tried to extort Zelenskyy before. He tried to use $400m in military aid as leverage to force Zelenskyy to help smear his political rivals son, Hunter Biden. Volodymyr refused, because morals. Trump was impeached. It’s not just about Don being a Russian asset, but personal revenge

Parliament is in the dark and the British public is in the dark. I have a suspicion that Boris Johnson and his government knew exactly what had happened, partly because they were beneficiaries of illicit political funding themselves’ metro.co.uk/2025/03/02/t...

Please share. 🙏🏻

A fact overlooked by many. This isn't entirely American aid out of goodwill. We made an agreement to defend Ukraine in exchange for them giving away their nuclear deterrent. And we're not keeping our word.

For anyone wondering why Donald Trump refuses to criticise Putin, while hectoring Zelenskyy, here is my piece about the US president's 1987 trip to Moscow. Trump's visit was arranged by the ... KGB. Extract comes from my #1 New York Times-bestselling book 'Collusion' www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

“Let me tell you, Putin went through a hell of a lot with me,” Trump angrily explained. “He went through a phony witch hunt where they used him and Russia, Russia, Russia.”

Publish the unredacted Russia Report @UKLabour

Should we really spend money on a visit from Trump? If you rather the money goes to the NHS or another UK institution, add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

❗️"This man is fighting for his country. A sovereign state has been attacked. People are dying. And all they care about is why didn't Zelensky wear a suit? I hate this country. I have never felt the way I do in my life," the American veteran recorded an emotional video.
