🇪🇺🇬🇧 Through my first set of meetings in Brussels. The praise for Starmer is overwhelming: “What he has managed to do is not just good for him. It's good for all of us. Absolutely top notch. This is the UK at its best. The UK we have always admired.

And even after all these years they hold their flavour... as recently discovered by my nearly-three-year-old daughter.

Isn’t it just terrible when wartime leaders don’t wear a three-piece suit to the White House… Reform UK are just Putin’s Poodles. www.politics.co.uk/news/2025/03...

Also true in the UK. Where people imagine there to be big savings they approve of (overseas aid, MPs salaries, benefits fraud) there are not.

Who wore it better?

Ouch.

BREAKING: Volodymyr Zelenskyy has arrived at Downing Street for a meeting with Keir Starmer

BREAKING: 'You have full backing across the United Kingdom' Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer tells Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 'We stand with you and Ukraine for as long as it may take' đź‘Ź

Pretty much sums it up

This is thuggery from Trump and Vance, plain and simple. They are bullying the brave true patriot Zelensky into accepting a deal which effectively hands victory to Russia. Unless the UK and Europe step up, we are facing a betrayal of Ukraine.

Any remaining arguments against the rearmament of Europe just evaporated in front of the eyes of every single European head of state this evening.

Every day I have to hear about some asshole

shaming people out of supporting a Nazi brand works

Ahem

"you can't beat a bit o' Bully"

Just realised that "Gene Hackman" is the exact name that Hideo Kojima would give a biochemist

“RUSSIA CAN STOP THE WAR ANYTIME BY LEAVING UKRAINIAN LAND.”

the most surprising and disappointing aspect of becoming a global health philanthropist is the existence of an opposition team

Once again with this guy: Every accusation is a confession.

This is just awful. Always loved the introduction of Dawn to BtVS, a mystery that none of the characters realised was a mystery. Brilliant stuff. She was great. Fuck.

The Elon Musk backed pro-Russian candidate in Romania, Calin Georgescu has been arrested. Authorities raided him like the crook he is and found at least $10 million in cash and tickets to Moscow. He may have also bumped his head a little bit too.

I've said it before, no doubt I'll be saying it again, Elon Musk is a stupid person's idea of a smart person.

“There was a willow hanging over the mill-pool and I learned to climb it. It belonged to a butcher on the Stratford Road, I think. One day they cut it down. They didn't do anything with it: the log just lay there. I never forgot that.” 📚 "J. R. R. Tolkien" ✍️

Woke up to see Donald Trump sharing a video on Truth Social about turning Gaza into a holiday resort with a giant gold statue of Trump, ending with a final shot of Trump and Netanyahu enjoying the beach together. Absolutely unhinged. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

Concerned about the impacts of unregulated release of non-native species ... ... can we talk about pheasants, please?

Oh it's #twinpeaksday ... That reminds me, I never have finished The Return. Now where was I? ... Oh, Part 8. Oh.

I have often noticed that the celebrities on Hot Ones can't answer questions or get distracted because the hot sauce is too spicy. They should trying doing the interviews without the hot sauce.

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

Feb 24th 1989 - Laura Palmer was murdered in the early hours of the morning. Later that morning, her body was discovered down river. FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper was assigned the case. đź“şđź“… Twin Peaks (1990) #TwinPeaks

I went from a chatbot, to a broken link, to a phone call with AI, to a conversation with an actual human being this morning, and that human being fixed my problem within 15 seconds. It took me 40 minutes to get to that 15 seconds. Don’t call this “customer-centric”. Just don’t.

wish more of Film Twitter had moved over here, because the ratio of politics to nonsense fun things is way out of whack

There was a golden era of twitter in the mid 2010s when you could tweet about a urinal cake and the brand would reply "thank you for pissing on me" and everything was perfect.

The level of petty I aspire to be 🤣

Elon’s razor: The stupidest explanation for his actions is probably the correct one

If you're truly proud to be British, you stay on this cold, rainy island, pay your taxes and complain about it, you don't run off to some sunny tax haven to avoid paying for a system that gave you or your ancestors the wealth in the first place.

Me, trying to look on the bright side of Amazon getting creative control of James Bond: I understand & share many of the obvious concerns surrounding corporate control of the IP, but there could be some positive aspects the biggest for me being:

ATTENTION FEDERATION CITIZENS. Going forward only myself and the Vorta will determine whether laws are in compliance with the Federation Charter, not Federation arbiters. #StarTrek #SISKO197

THE FEDERATION PROVOKED THE DOMINION!!!

Timely reminder the copyright on Ian Fleming's novels expires January 1st, 2035. Amazon Studios is *desperate* to milk this IP for all it's worth in the remaining (less than a) decade.
