Starlink should be banned from European markets on national security grounds. Anything requiring Starlink should be shut out of the European market, and sanctions should be considered against all relevant actors. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

Trump can’t handle the faintest criticism so, when he hears that Zelensky should have been invited, he lashes out saying “He started it”. When Zelensky mentions the disinformation that feeds Trump, Trump lashes out again. A monstrous spoiled brat wrecking the world with his dull-witted vengefulness.

Britain’s foreign policy reality has just shattered. Trump’s return, Ukraine and Atlanticism in crisis. What now? Keir Starmer has a unique chance to reset defence, rebuild the economy, and seize the moment. Will he? Chaos is a ladder. It’s time to climb. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Also from the FT: "A senior diplomat said: 'It’s very clear now, Europe is alone.' When I asked him if he now regarded the US as an adversary, he replied: 'Yes.'”

Genuinely barking mad. Wildly delusional and stratospherically arrogant nonsense from someone who will never be Prime Minister and whose party is becoming terminally unpopular in its relentlessly stupid efforts to be divisively populist.

This is no time for trite slogans “Keep Calm and Carry On.” We cannot carry on as we were before. No wishful thinking, “it’s just a phase”End delusions. America under Trump is not our friend. There’s no “soft landing” for the UK. We need to club together with like minded countries, and resist.

A tiny wealth tax on the super-rich would raise billions and boost the economy. Billions we could spend investing in our public services and reducing inequality. It really is that simple.

YES Shadow cabinets are proven. They're public-minded. They provide constant, watchful eyes on what's happening. People have been yelling about this for weeks. Pick people to shadow specific departments / agencies. They can inform themselves on what's going on--in real time--& inform the public.

It's an outrage that in the Cayman Islands I can incorporate a company without any proof of ID. I can put any old crap in the incorporation documents. Nobody checks. Actually I fibbed. That's the UK. The Cayman Islands has had strict ID/verification rules for years.

Any European leader who wakes up tomorrow and says confidently that Europe can rely on the USA to be a dependable defense partner, should be removed from office on grounds of wilful insanity.

This isn't a surprising but it is devastating. The great betrayal of Ukraine begins. We, in Europe, are in a place of danger. We all owe Ukraine & its people a debt of gratitude for its extraordinary courage. 😢

The government should draw up plans for Tesla tariffs to hit Musk where it hurts, if Trump follows through with his threats to the UK steel industry. Trump and Musk can't be allowed to bully the UK while the Conservatives and Nigel Farage cheer them on from the sidelines.

On LBC this morning, I spoke about why we should be far more worried the power Elon Musk is accruing, especially in light of his Open AI moves. The normalisation of his actions and activity by quite a bit of the US and even UK media is a big part of the problem. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGnt...

Labour is upping the ante on anti-migrant politics just to learn that Farage & the Tories can always, always go further than them. It’s real people who are caught in the crossfire of politicians trying to outdo each other on toughness. How we treat people matters. #r4today

Elon Musk has been attacking USAID — because USAID has been investigating Musk Why? Because USAID paid for the Starlink units Musk claimed to give Ukraine in 2022 (!!!) Some ended up with Russia — so USAID opened an inquiry Meanwhile Musk started speaking to Putin in late 2022

Posting footage of deportations impresses no one. Reform voters don’t think it’s enough hatred and the rest of us turn away from yet more performative cruelty. The Labour vote disintegrates. If Labour can’t decide who it should be talking and listening to, then it ends up without an audience.
